Looks like you're going to be busy, nice look w/ the wheels. What wheel offset specs are you running?

18x8 +35. Fitment is much better than stock.

Hey, you doing your own spring change or having a shop do it for you? Because I am having a darn time finding a good place to give my money to. So if you find one, pass the info along, please.

Not the folks in Hyde Park... too far away for me and my "can't take a day off work" situation at this time.

I will be doing them myself. I do all of my own work.

Where are you located? Motive in Woburn is always a great choice.

As always, the problem with living in the country and working in the city is transportation. I need my car just to get to/from the commuter train station. And at the time I get there, wife is not available to come pick me up (she works 2nd shift). Once in the city, I can Uber to Cambridge and from the office back to Woburn.

I think I will wait for the better weather (no garage), rent me a spring compressor and do it myself as well.

The lights to the side of the fogs are custom DRL's that I did. I unplugged them until a build a new harness for them so that they turn off when the fog lights are turned on.

Ultra Racing strut bar installed. I haven't seen anyone else run this bar before. My fear was the clearance with the Stillen intakes, as I know this is a problem with many other strut bars. Well, this bar clears with plenty of room!

Nice updates Cannon, looks like you found a winner in that strut bar, similar to the Alutek, also looks to have plenty of room to adjust damper ***** if you ever get coilovers (or for those that want to consider this part).
Your black trimmed combo is coming along well, like that new spoiler too.
Might consider this DIY if you haven't seen it

Thanks blnewt! I need to get the window trim and roof wrapped soon to complete the look.

I've considered doing the tails. Possibly the overlays as a less permanent solution in the event that I don't care for it. I'd much rather peel vinyl than wetsand.

Looks great!

Do any of you MA guys attend the Mass Cruisers cruise nights in the parking lot of Bass Pro Shops in Foxboro?

I often do actually! I'll either be in the G37 or in blue/white crown vic directing traffic.

I do, too. I don't show my car, but my buddy shows his '32 Ford hot rod. It's black with a green pin stripe.

See you in the Spring!
