Finally have pics of my car (Yay!)
So here are a few pics of the car, nothing special. You will see all my mods so far... Spoon spoiler and antenna, keyless door handle, wheels, and i added some felt to the glove box so all of my shit won't rattle on bumps and stuff. enjoy and comment as you wish.
Here are my Wheels. 16" HFP
Nice view of the Spoon Spoiler and Antenna
Side view of Spoiler
Keyless Door Handle (Driver's Door)
Felted Glove Box to keep shit quiet (not that anything was really that loud)

Felt idea seems to be a popular one...
To do so i simply went to local hobby store and bought felt. had to buy it by the yard, and only used about 1/4 of what i was given so there is plenty of room for error. I first took my glove box out (2 screws), then cut pieces of paper for each side and taped the sides together to make my template. then i simply traced and cut. the glue i had wasn't doing to well so i just used double sided tape and lined every inch of my glovebox and just pushed the felt down. it's only been 2 days so i don't really know how long it will last, but so far so good.

next. well, that's a good question. i'm tryin to convince myself that i need to save a little more than i have been. the easiest way to do so is to not have a "next". of course that sucks, so if i decide to continue modding i am looking at the following:
-carbon fiber hood, either seibon or spoon. -OR-
-lowing springs, can't decide which to go with (help would be great) -OR-
-jdm led tail lights & 3rd brake light -OR-
-misc. interior items: shift boot, new shift knob, hid dome light, etc.
Don't really want to risk voiding any warranties just yet, so probably won't touch the engine anytime soon. also, any suggestions would be great.

the keyless handle was a royal pain in the ass. if i had to do it again i know it would go quicker, but the first time through it took about 7 hours. it wasn't really that difficult, just a lot to get done. i bought another driver's side rear handle and used that for the front. it fits perfectly, but the holes for the screws don't line up (of course) so i added a metal piece to screw to the handle, and then screwed that to the door. that was the hardest part. the rest was just taking shit apart and putting it back together. a lot of it was a pain though. you have to get the lock out to take the handle out,and that requires a lot of work. i have a service manual, and would recommend that to anyone attempting. no pieces were broken in whole process and everything works just as well as it did prior. i can do a full write up if anyone is interested...

i didn't take any pictures, but i can give a pretty thorough write up. do you have a service manual? i don't know if i can accurately describe the location, size, shape, etc. of all of the clips and such. plus that would add a lot of extra stuff to the write up. if i was really nice i could take the door back apart and snap a few pics, but, um... no.
