Painted my calipers and the top hats to my rotors black today. Put it off for so long, but gotta say, it was pretty easy, and makes the car look so much better! Black > Rusty Orange any day! haha. Got a lot of overspray on the rotors, but after like a week of drivin, it will all grind off so whatever. Heres some pics, sorry for the crappy phone pics in a cramped space.

Slapped on my spacers 20mm Fr, 25mm Rr. Love the way they look! Def helps the look of the car. Thought the 20s look a bit big for the front, but took it out and she ain't rubbin at all.
Here's some before and after shots.

Had my TL Front (27.2mm) and Rear (20mm) sway bars installed yesterday with new end links all around. The car feels great! Significantly less body roll and it shows. Before I put the sway bars on my rear driverside fender would rub on the tire (25mm spacer in the rear) it wasn't rubbing bad and there was no noticeable wear, but you def heard it and it was worse with a full car. Well I hit some on/off ramps last night after pickin the car up and I hit em pretty hard and had NO rubbing. Which is great news, so we'll see how it does with people in it to see it I'm gonna have to roll the rear fenders.
Takin a break off from the Moddin for a while to try to get my bank account up to good standings again. But hopin to have Richie's PCDs and Long tube J pipe on by end of summer for the Sloppy Mechanic's Fall Dyno Day.
