Might as well. The shift boot is a fairly easy install. I took the armrest cover to a local auto upholstery shop and had them mount it. I have no skills in that dept. Plus they did it FAST and perfectly IMO.

Had a new windshield installed. Wow the clarity is unbelievable.
It was done at safelite and brand is pilkington. Looks of quality. All the dots and shading match oem and rear view mirror as well. Def happy with this.

What prompted a new windshield?

Was it the obvious or a wish for more clarity?

When i bought the G it was riddled with fixed chips. On the freeway another one happened leaving a crack. So i decided best to start new.

But had them "fixed" for months now and they still are tight and engage just fine.
So sorry just saw that lol

I got my Outcast Garage front splitter installed today and rather then going through the hassle of the sand/paint/clear coat process I ended up vinyl wrapping it in gloss black. I really think it looks just as good and is much more durable than paint anyways.

I also finally found the time to get my IPL side skirts vinyl wrapped in satin black and installed.

And I installed my all black IPL engine cover installed ( was gunna go carbon fiber but the black matched my engine bay more ).

And finally ingot my Project Kics r26 neochrome lug nuts installed.

All in all I LOVE EVERYTHING!

That's pretty special, and it all comes together in a way that could have looked pretty tacky, but actually doesn't. There's a whole lot to like here in your Coupe, Kenny. From these pictures, I think it looks great.

Are you planning on attending the August meet-up? That's a car to see, man.

Believe me my biggest worry was about it turning tacky as well, especially with all the mods but I was careful with keeping it far away from becoming that and I'm glad you agree!

I was speaking with Sean (Vivid) this morning and yes I will surely be attending the meet if nothing changes from now till then. I'd love to be in the running for nicest G coupe and win myself that free bag of cheetos!

Cleaned throttle bodies..after 18k miles they were not filthy but they were not clean either! Every 2 years or so seems about right to clean them. Mine is just over 2 years old.

Not a completely successful day but still good. Got coils, sway bars, wheels/tires installed. Getting the tanabe axle back done in the morning along with a small ride height adjustment and full toe/camber/caster alignment. Waiting to get the Berks installed until I get a tune at the same time.

That looks great ^^^^^^

I love the pure white!!! Very integrated and cool looking. Nice...

Once it's all dialed in to your preferences, your suspension work will definitely be a dream to drive.

Wow! Those rims... Unique, bold choice. Custom painted Stance SC-6ix? Did you buy them like that?

Too low for me, but still beautiful.
