Snapped a few pics today and thought I would share. I feel like its come together nicely and finally feel like I'm done. Nothing too wild, but I like it. I figure this is the closest ill come to a build thread.
Mod list:
R2C intake
Hoen fog lights
Illuminated kick plates
Midnight grill
Lowered on swift springs
Coupe 19's powder coated and wrapped in BFG KDW's
Topspeed exhaust
Rear valence overlay
Daytime running lights (Never intended to use them, but they flowed so well)
50% tint all around
Rear lip spoiler
Interior led conversion
Led plate lights and parking lights
Probably some other small stuff I can't think of right now.
Towing a trailer!

Update:
I installed the grounding kit today. I'm delightfully surprised to be saying that they work! Maybe its due to the ECU reset (although i've done this a bunch of times now), but shifts feel much better. It seems to engage faster and more seemless. Who knows maybe its in my head, but for a $25 DIY who cares. Even if its just mental its worth the price of admission.

Yeah it really is shifting nice, and the radio does seen to go a little louder now. For a diy'er, like yourself, I'd say it's a no brainier. Worst case scenario you spent $25 on some engine bling.

Here's the original TopSpeed thread, my pics start at post 64, I've got some sound clips including the cabin after the pics, maybe page 7?

Sorry Rocket I have not had a chance to mess with it yet (good intentions derailed by life), but I am certain it will work as others have had good luck bending the hangers.
