Nothing looks better freshly detailed than black. Nothing looks worse 20 minutes later :eek:

I had two black cars. Spent a ton of time keeping them looking good. Swore never again.

Coming along. Still no real performance enhancements yet. Just cosmetics but I'm happy as a barnacle on a lazy man's boat bottom.

Looking good!
I installed an MBRP axle back a couple weeks ago. Super happy with the way it all turned out. Loud enough when you get on it but still quiet at cruising speed

Which mud flaps are you running and do you have some closer pictures. I definately need some with the spacers installed.

Applied some yellow tint to my foglights this morning. My patience is shit when it comes to doing stuff like this when your looking up close. 20220625_102823.jpg I like the looks of it though from a far lol.

No new upgrades. No extra money at the moment. But I'm really enjoying my ST. Have you had anything done to yours?

Pretty much sitting in the same boat as you! Seems like my wish list is getting larger but the funds never seem to be there lol

Latest addition will be installed by KalTire here as I’m going with the 20” Nokian Hakka. R5 . Apparently the newest in studless tire technology. I’ve used Nokian on all my vehicles and never disappointed. New black rims too to fit the 20” tires. All done end of the following week. Will post pic

So I bit the bullet today and order some RokBlokz mud flaps to try out. Ended up being 264 bucks shipped to my house in Kamloops. A little bit more than I was hoping to spend but i like the idea of the extra coverage for winter and any back road cruising. Will install them when I switch over to my winter setup hopefully at the end of the month.

Installed . The RTX wheels are fine as KalTire didn’t have plain wheels available and I think I prefer the look of these wheels over a blank steel. So far only short ride but the Hakka R5 feels nice on road. Smooth and zero noise as far as I’m concerned. I’m ready for the snow and highways now 42AFFCCF-83EE-4248-9CFE-02CE25BD16EF.jpeg AF2F7FE9-3796-4881-A0AF-1DEF9709A37E.jpeg 4DF87129-72CE-4681-B7C9-15FBD2AD81AC.jpeg 43A40CAF-CDF4-45E4-B4C8-A824CFA2EE64.jpeg

Thanks for the pics.. she looks really good. I might have to get these tires for my winter season too. I live by Hope so I'll need something nice.

Now those wheels look good and are those black lug nuts?? If so where did you find them??
