Austin`s Build thread..

[SouthFLSonic]

I know not everyone will like these but I'm happy how they turned out.opcorn:opcorn:opcorn:

As long as you're happy who cares right?? I personally love em, have you put any thought to using that color on one other element to tie them into the car? Maybe like just high beam rings or the bowties? Just an idea and the car looks great as is.

I'm going to do my best. That's my weekend to work, but I've got time to work out a trade.

I installed my rear brace on Sunday. It makes a huge difference for sure.

I also got a "new" DSLR Canon 50D here are a few shots with it..

I took pictures of my friends Mopar Dodge Dart this weekend. It was a fun car to shoot for sure.

I ended up winning my class at a car show over the weekend! (Sport Compact)

There were a lot of positive reactions towards the Sonic and it made me very happy.. Unfortunately the show queen didn't get to head out to the autocross course today. Torrential rain and lightning ended up canceling the event.

At the show however, I could get some nice pictures

Went to a local racetrack for an autocross event yesterday. I love how the car handles. Autocross really emphasizes its strong points..

A brief video I made of my fastest run https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2q6iW_Kml4

Pretty pictures:

Only new mods that have happened recently are a front lip, Taktata tow strap and new headlight bulbs.. Hoping to get some new brake pads soon.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for the wheels + tires and what tires are they?

Big things have happened recently.. I snagged a set of BC coilovers and installed them a few weeks ago. I haven't had much time to adjust them so I'm sitting at where I was with lowering springs. I will hopefully get the car to sit a bit lower by the end of this week.

Here is a photoshop though

How does that tow strap mount on there?
