It's kinda crappy outside, but I went ahead and took some pics anyway. My 3.5SE got some new parts in the mail, got most of them on...First off is the Eibach Pro Kit:Before:After:I'm happy with the kit, and I've gotten most of the dreaded front wheel gap out. The ride is still smoother than my Focus, but def. handles better and is much firmer over stock.

Next is my Fujita Short Ram Intake:Before:After:The intake is pretty awesome, it really opens up the VQ's sound, and my butt dyno tells me that it's working.

Also got me a little touch of Nismo.

I got my Lamin-X yellow fog light covers as well:

Finally, my two mufflers came in and I started working on getting my custom exhaust done, but it turns out that the mufflers are just too big to fit by the Alti's frame. I blame myself for not really looking under the chassis and trying to fit it by eye. So I am returning these two mufflers...(you can tell by comparing the muffler to the bumper just how big it really is...) and I've already ordered two of these...http://www.sparktecmotorsports.com/mv1017.htmlwhich will def. fit.

Anyway, my car is coming along fine for now. Next on the list, down the road of course as my wife is already giving me the evil eye, will be some Stillen body part goodies i.e. lip kit, and sway + strut bars. I'll get new pics when my exhaust is done. Hope you enjoy!

Finally here's a pic of my before at 265lbs:And me after the US Army fitness program I like to call "Body by Drill Sgt", final weight = 224lbs:

I really wasn't thinking about selling them, but if somebody really wants them I'll sell em' with tires and shipping to 48 states for $950 obo. They only have 1500 miles on them.

Never thought of fog light covers. I'm assuming they just change the color put out on the road, right? Not much of a visibility improvment or am i mistaken?

The mufflers will fit, but the tip will stick out, which is better, because it needs to stick out from the bumper a little bit.

when i first bought my mufflers i didnt think it was going to fit, but it did.

its gonna look nice when its done, and sound amazing. make sure you remove the third cat, and do not add a resonator...thats what i did, and it sounds perfect!
