So I fly out on the 7th next week to pick up Johan's car. And I CAN'T STOP thinking about the mods, lol. I'm such a damn nerd. I've got things all mapped out.
While I'm there, I'm picking up a full underhood kit from Billet Technology, in black anodized. When I get back, I'll be ordering a black ABS cover & coolant tank from Show & Performance. She's got an appointment for Monday the 13th, to get the grille, roof, and mirrors painted gloss black. Hotchkis swaybars & Bwoody links MAY also be in the mix.
But here's what I REALLY WANT to finish off the look. I'm trying to fit this in the budget, but I dunno. I want these with the machined face, and black gloss windows, BAD. It will really finish off the silver/black theme I intend to put on the car.

Anyway, needless to say, I'm REALLY looking forward to the acquisition!!! Looking forward to meeting Johan, Scott, Heidi, and Chris! :) If anyone has any ideas on how to cure my anticipation (other than lots of beer, which I've consumed while coming up with my initial plans) please let me know. I'm finding it hard to sleep at night. :)

Chase-man...you asked the question...Well brother, it would seem that if you're fortunate enough to have a child or two, three or more, that most of your automotive-related thoughts will manifest themselves into obsessing about having the happiest, healthiest, smartest, best dressed, best schooled little one(s) you can manage.

Seriously, I haven't even felt the need to even wash a vehicle in the last several years, let alone mod it...though still love living vicariously through guys like you!

Those wheels will look really nice on the 300 Chase. I guess it's tempering what you can do now with what you really want lol. Tough one. Also, Joe has 4 kids, I have 2...it's easier to mod with 2! lol. Curious, you sure you want to paint the mirrors black? When I saw those pics, the mirrors 'might' have interrupted the flow a bit..but I'd have to look at them again a few times. something to think about...and yeah, you're obsessed...but it's a good obsession!

Love the Option 5 wheels myself, but I'll never put 22" rims on my car. If they made a 20" rim...I'd think about it.

JUST GOT HOME. I pulled into the driveway today at 2:30. She's washed. Debadged. Demolded. Getting ready to start the full paint correction, and install a few BT parts. Option5 wheels are ordered as well. I'll start a "progress" thread tomorrow. I'm only in for a few minutes to eat and rest, then back down to the garage. Probably won't finish till about 2am or so......I'll post up tomorrow boys and girls. :)

Nah, don't worry about it bro. But I do have a question...if your wife was all nice and clean, why did she sleep out in the garage?
