Finally got a mold made for the badgeless garnish out of fiberglass. Quite expensive for the mold...$1000, definitely worth it seeing as how everyone wants these. I should be getting the first couple around the 17th of this month. As for resale value painted....not cheap.

Got Cindy's new exhaust in today........so much better sounding.Had to trim the bumper cutout on the bottom a bit as it was too close.Best $50 I ever spent.

I was a bit ____ed to climb under car though to find muffler shop had cut off the flange on the midpipe that goes to the rear pipe and welded it all into one big piece.due to that I could not use the other piece... ....

Car feels a lot better taking off now,much less restricted than the TRD was.Very deep sound,and no droning on the freeway at all.......when you open it up it is loud though but still very deep sounding.......

I am working on polishign up my spare vlave cover by the way. Its pretty shiny. I have jsut sanded and wet sanded it. Then used sme polishing grit sand paper then wet sanded it with that. I taped it off and am painting where the injectors go Black (thanks for the idea Erik) and then will take some metal polish to it after that. Then hopefully a tech day we can install it and do my CF door trim pieces, and maybe some more wiring for my sound system. Oh yeah and rotate my wheels.

Some of the hardest graphics, designs, and effects are in fact the easiest.

Interior, badgeless garnish DIY, will be up soon.

Sorry kid, you missed your chance to get the key marks fixed. I even had the paint booth reserved. Good thing I used it anyways.
