My 2012 Kona Blue V6 Premium
Some of you may have seen my thread about pricing regarding a used '12 V6 premium a couple weeks ago, which lead to me bringing the beauty home where there were a few mods waiting to be applied! Pics below!
Stock aside from the hood scoop I applied as soon as I pulled into the driveway.
blackout panel + tail light trim.
Stripes!!
That's pretty much it for now. Planning on a CAI so if anyone has some input they could give as which would be the best route to go, I'd appreciate it. It will wait either way. My wallet has taken a pretty big hit from the purchase of the car and the few mods I've already slapped on. All well worth it though!! I'll update with much better pictures soon.

A few new mods on the car these past few weeks. I picked up the MMD Window Scoops and Black Hood Pin Appearance Kit.
I also painted some of the lettering on my tires white to get even more of that retro look going on. I've done this on my '06 Mustang before with dupli-color paint markers but they were absolutely horrible. They turned brown and started flaking after going down the street to grab a pop. I did a bit of googling this time around to find the best solution and ended up going with another paint marker, although I was very hesitant it would have much of a different outcome. Slapped a coat on one tire and drove around the neighborhood to test it out. Still looked great. Painted the rest of the tires and drove from my home in San Francisco over to my gf's in the East Bay. Picked up a little smudge but wiped right off. Hopefully they hold up the look because I really do like it!
Better pics once I give her a wash, polish, and wax! Car is absolutely filthy from the misty weather these past few nights.

+1 on the white letters on the tires. I have always liked it and have the raised white letters on my '66.
Let us know how they hold up and post up some pics after a few weeks. If it works I might do this on my Boss.
