I finally get around completing the first set of mods.
Monday I got my RPI Exhaust installed thanks Andy from Sonicms.
It is a bit louder then I originally wanted but hey, great looks with 83mm tips and awesome sound.... Everybody turns their head
Today I got my 19" VMR V713s wrapped with General UHPs .. great looks actually it looks better then the pictures. I also watch Sonic guys at all times, their workman ship is A++, I am a very particular when it comes to detail. . I got my car 4-wheels aligned at the dealership a month ago and guess what the alignment was out of wack today so they fixed it.
Last I got install my new matte black grills and RPI Scoop that I got from Joe at Trinity. I am not sure if anyone tried to paint the RPI emboss of the Red or black scoops with black or red paint, my sccop turned out to be great looking - eventhough I did a very lousy job. I will post the picture later
Here are couple pictures I took while they were putting the wheels and aligning.
Thanks Sonics and Trinity.
So what should be the next Dinan high flow intake ???

Do you mean the decals are for sticking them on the scoop itself ?
ACtually I painted the letters using a permanent sharpe pen .. It looks good I will post the pix.

Nice to finally see some VMR 713 wheels on an E60. She
