It's been awhile, updates (pics)

I was close to selling the G but Im going to hold off for another year or so. Decided to give the car a little refresh so I painted the wheels and brought back the vinyl overlay. Everything is OEM aside from the ravspec rear spats. Engine is stock aside from UpRev tune. Only one more thing coming and thats blacking out the window trim. Other than that, its done until I decide to sell. Pics...

Beautiful! don't sell it.

Silver looks very classy with dark tint. Is that a 20% film or 15%? I used to have a silver 09X with 20% film, always liked that look.

Good to see you back Bat, car's looking extra clean & the black window trim should compliment those nice looking 19s.
BTW, I think TopSpeed got their nice exhausts back, might want to give them a call. (Sorry, couldn't help it my friend )

Car looks great! I really like how you kept the stock wheels, but changed the color to fit your scheme. Nice!

Thanks guys. No drop coming. As some of you know, ive been dropped with upgraded sways and braces before. Im too old for stiff suspensions. Im enjoying comfort on the OEM setup.

Wheels were painted by a wheel repair specialist.

newt, i doubt ill be giving TopSpeed a shout.

What were your gains with the Uprev tune on an otherwise stock engine?

Love it. Too bad you dont want to drop it again, it would just complete that car. Either way it is a beauty with those wheels and the tint.
