So I changed the last grainy pic after doing some photo editing and it is "marginally" better.

I still rub over heavy dips....regular driving on decent roads poses no problems. The tires have really great grip but I think I will go with some Nitto's next time due to their flatter sidewall...the sidewall on the Goodyears is a little to......well...it protrudes to much from the wheel.

Well as we all know there is a ying and yang to everything. Tuesday afternoon someone hit my car in the parking lot...of course there was no note on my car and the YMCA I was parked at has 12 cameras but their surveillance system only monitors 9 of them....guess which camera was off? Sigh....$962...and my $500 deductible leaves $462 for the insurance company .

Well I got my car back from the shop a couple of weeks ago..Turns out I have uninsured/hit&run coverage with USAA so my deductible was only $200 (woot, woot). This weekend I took a trip to Panama City, FL to visit my sister. After the trip I had to wash off the abundance of bug guts and decided to take a couple of quick shots. Enjoy!
*Forgot to add that washed and waxed with SwissVax products....towels and other stuff from Detailed Image...check my sig!*

your car is just simply amazing, modded to the fullest!
i just near crapped myself after looking at ur car. and you sir is a lucky man. Sparkling Graphite was discontinued :/ it was my favorite color. maybe they'll bring it back for future models they'll probably call it "Sparkling Graphite II" just like Silverstone II and Dakar Yellow II

because its my favorite car+my favorite color im curious, why did you choose terra+grey poplar? instead of black or coral red? me personally would have chose coral red, i think it compliments Sparkling Graphite

1. Piano black trim would be my first choice, didnt like the bubble aluminum, and fake plastic brown wood trim just looks tacky (IMO). 2. Terra is a option you have to be "in the know" to get. It is not listed on the website...just a bit of exclusiveness Coral red is nice but a bit to bright I think for the SGM. The Terra is just bright enough AND understated at the same time. Quote:
Keep working and saving man....I had to do time in the big middle eastern sandbox for this...trust me the way you are doing it is much easier on your mentals. All reading keep voting 4 me! Lets get something other than AW or JB as COTM. |

^^^Thanks man. I hope to keep them looking good. Kinda hard with all the highway miles I have been putting in lately though....I may get them refinished in the future if they get to bad....I think it would be waaaay cheaper than buying a new set that is for sure.
