. I couldnt stand the drone though...

By the way, I used turtle wax ice car washing soaps (ran out of meguiars, but I personally like the Ice more...noticeable less streaks), then I parked my car inside and did the clay bar.

I used Meguiars clay bar because their kit came with a larger clay bar and also a microfiber towel. I clayed the whole entire body, but if I would do it again, I would only do it to surfaces that dust can land on. I. E. Hood, front bumper, rear lid, rear bumper, side mirrors, and the A, and C-pillar.

Overall took about 6 hours (with 1.5 hour lunch break included) because I cleaned the interior, I just didn't do windows.

Whatchall think?

Looks good. now all you need is wheels, suspension, intake, header, and lip kit..

Its not worth it to get a header on a tC unless you are planning to go boost. Its just going to add alot of noise with minimal gains. Intake wont do anything either, but itll sound nice with an exhaust.

EDIT:
Naw Spellman, Skyla was there her freshmen year til she bounced to Lehman. How you know her?

She tried to bag me in Burger king. I paid her no mind since i was in a relationship @ the time. If i run into her again, i'm goin' in forthe kill

Tein ss would be cool.

 

[youngtriz]

what do yall think about ksport lowering springs for a quick cheap lowering job...

 

[10 piece nuggets]

^ Id stay away from K-Sport, heard alot of bad things from that company.


Thanks keepz, still deciding between a 335 and an Evo, I know if I get an Evo I would mod the crap out of it. Trying to stay cool with just a 335.

 

[mr monday niight]

Don't go cheap when it comes to suspension.

They are quite expensive, IF you actually get the wheels.360Forged/SystemForged/Modular Concept/ForgedDST or whatever the calls themselves now, customer service is absolutely pathetic. So many horror stories andcustomers getting screwed over.

Stay away, very far away.

Budget? good lightweight wheels are not cheap. something from the iForged, work, volk, gram lights, and, hre line is gonna run you about 400-700+ per wheeldepending on size, color, and offsets.

I was bored and browsing youtube...found something I had to share with this thread:



I think they said it was a Challenge Stradale with tubi straight pipes.

Please watch the whole video, then you can just hear the inspiration Ferrari takes from F1 and puts in its vehicles.
