Default FINALLY Got My 2011 GT/CS

Got 'er on 10/28, Thursday, and spent all day Friday doing the following:


-Steeda 20" Spyders with Nitto Invos
-9.5s in front with 275/35
-11's in back with 295's/35

-Steeda Axlebacks (made by Borla)

-Window Tint 20%

-Dumb A$$ Windshield Transponder Decal for Residential Gate Entry

Only "first thing" left to do is change out the front grille for the black one. Started working on it, but had to put it back together because I had to leave the house for awhile..Couldnt figure out how to remove grille from housing.

Anyway..here are some pics. The Image quality is good, but "style" quality for picture is lousy, but All I could get for now. Enjoy

Nice ride! Love the wheels!

Those side scoops on the new 2010/11 body style look "stick-on" which I know they always have been even on older mofels... but on this model, it REALLY looks stick-on. Doesn't flow with the lines AT ALL.

But, other than that, let's just say... I'm jealous... very jealous.

Sweet, great looking car. I wish they offered the Brembo package on the CS. Who bother blocking out your license plate? Everyone driving down the road sees it.

I disagree 110%. The California Special side scoops on the 2011 GT/CS look sexy as hell to me !!! I think they flow with the car's lines beautifully.

They do flow great, but from some angles they look very stick on, just as the hood scoops do. I love them on my car 2011 though!

To be honest with you, I dont even realize theyre there. Live and in person they look really nice, and especially driving as the car is coming towards you. Any body kit looks "stick on" too.

WHY BLOCK OUT LICENSE? Because there are people that SPECIFICALLY surf forums to look for these cars to try to find them in person, maybe even to steal them. People on my block know where I live but that doesnt mean I should paste my address all over the internet.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

Sell it, but I still cant figure out how to take that assembly apart without breaking off the little posts on the grille. Got any suggestions?
