I vinyl'd the chrome surround and "wings" on the grille on my OBXT. I also put on a matching JDM Fanatics vinyl badge in SWP and black.

Swapped my torsion bars with wingless bars.
Moved my fire extinguisher to the left side of the trunk and test fit my new sub enclosure.
Much cleaner looking trunk!

Got my red converted switches and controls back from peter @ prodriven auto. They all match my cluster now!!! $140 well spent to do it right.

I'm thinking of taking the Legacy badge off, but I wouldn't know what to replace it with (the holes look tacky to me).

Wiring harness and ECU finally out!

10+ hours of labeling and 2 hours of actual pulling will make this merge and swap a lot easier to work with

Swapped my rear pads to match my fronts.

Wilwood poly matrix e compounds. I thought these were the B but after looking at them they are the E so thought id throw them in for the time being.
