Your car is looking awsome as ever! The whole thing blends together perfectly.

Did you change the intake yourself? If so how big of a pain in the *** was it? The intake is really the only thing I have left to do but I am torn about doing it or not. Did you notice any idle problems after words? Thats my main worry...anything I do has to live with the stock programming because there are no tuners anywhere around here. But thats cool because all I care about is how it looks (of course as long as it runs as good as stock.)
