Yours was the first one I saw in alloro green without the yellow... kinda made me wish I'd have found a similarly spec'ed one. It has grown on me, though.

And yeah, the rain the past two days washed away all the snow and cleared a lot of the salt off the roads... forecast doesn't show freezing temps in the next ten days, so I decided to trust that the snow was over with.

I love your color combo. Although, I think I would try and find a matching green wrap to cover the yellow on the A pillars. I didn't have the patients to keep looking for a green V8VS car. I think at some point I will go for an Allora green wrap on my car.

Vinyl wrapped window trim

Spent a few hours applying flat black 3M 1080 vinyl wrap to my chrome window trim. It’s amazing how such a small thing changes the look of the car. I really like it.

just remember last year it snowed like a foot on March 14th

I hope we got our foot of snow out of the way early this year, i'm dying to drive!!!!

I'm doing the something different than supraholic, I'm going to wrap my car matte silver metallic keep all the chrome and add Rich's clear side marker package over the next few months, I think it will look nice

Thanks. I would like to do the rear diffuser but I'll probably wait until next winter to do that. I need something to look forward to while the car sits for the winter.

I hear you, I was a little bit in a rush to get it the way I always pictured mine and got the front splitter, rear diffuser and V12 Side skirts... this year I am adding Carbon Fiber mirror caps and probably blackout all side markers... Almost forgot the 200 Cells and Tunes from VelocityAP purchased over the winter, that should make a huge difference. Your car is the same color as mine

Our cars are looking similar, the photos below are before I got the splitter on. I see we have the exact same one. I also did the VAP tune last year, but no mechanicals. I look forward to seeing your additional changes.

I don't know what you're being a sissy about... I had my car on a track on Wednesday.






Aside: Pilot Sport 4Ss are amazing.
