Jess yours has come a long way fast! This thread makes me realise how much money we spend haha

I update my first post in my build thread, but anywayssss
http://www.astinagt.com/forums/showp...98&postcount=1

I'm just going to do what i've done since owning it, its been a year and a half now about a month ago. That's crazy to even think about!
  • Full sound system
  • Painted red brakes
  • Blacked headlights
  • Rear sway bar and longer endlinks
  • Resprayed wing and side mirror that was faded
  • Autoexe lip- de-stickerd, painted, installed, snapped, removed, sitting in shed making me cry
  • Uprgraded rotors to slotted ones
  • Aero wipers all round
  • WHEELS! How did i forget that this far down
  • All lights have pretty much been upgraded
  • Probably polished and washed it too many times. HA
  • Probably more, but i've forgotten, go to the link ^^

What's needed/wanted to be done?
  • Install my Autoexe springs (Next weekend)
  • Install Injen CAI (In shipping progress)
  • New Strut bars
  • Get some pedals and a gear knob
  • Despite Phill's discretion HID fog lights
  • Fix my Autoexe Lip

IMAGES!!

First day of ownership. So...Stock



About 3 months ago. Still looks the same, but minus the Lip
