.. on top of it all, I ran 3 inch exhaust cut outs lulz

I got everything from full sized trucks to 4 inch fart can Civic's trying to race me 24/7.. it's okay on a Saturday night and I am in the mood for it, but on days when I am beat up from work or dead tired.. it becomes an issue rofl.

I remember not too long ago an 06 STI nearly wrecked 10 ft. in front of me trying to show off and race me *face palm*


Thanks for the compliments on the GT/CS front.. it looks great and is aggressive as hell. I may opt for just a plain black hood and keep the GT/CS. Not many of them around, and not many even know how it looks like...

IMO, if you want to make it look less menacing you could take off the decals and the rear window louver. The everyday person isn't going to notice what front end you have on the car. Just the fact that you don't have GT written every where is going to be enough to disguise if from most people. Just a thought.

If their smart enough to consider thinking it's a V6 because of the bumpers then they're definitely smart enough to pick out the supercharger whine/whistle and V8 growl.... Just saying

Already taken care of

An agonizing 7 hours with a heat gun and Goo Gone. Looks killer, but I still have to buff out the color inconsistencies left by the giant decals.

I like the front end, but it's still very different and aggressive. The stock V6 is very "friendly" and even looks very different than the stock V8 GT... I know people often trade up from the sixxer front to the GT, but I still like the softer edge V6 look..

I am getting a special exhaust system built up to silence out the sound I am not trying to play it off as a V6 as I am trying to basically blend in with the crowd 99.9% of the time.

I witnessed how cool all this really was a few years back in my stage 2 SRT-4 (very quick) and I was trying to pass a stubborn Mustang on the freeway. I downshifted thinking I was the shiet, and he just up and left me in the wind. My exhaust was loud but I wasn't really going anywhere compared to the stock looking mustang taking off like a bat outta hell... no sound, no decals etc.

Nothing like getting spanked by a plain jane looking ride...

Those tribal stickers that were on your GT would have looked so legit if they were a dark or light gray type color. just sayin.

After being a victim of many "sleepers", I realized how cool they were.

lol I thought the same thing. my skittle was pretty quick from a roll.. too bad that's all it was good for. From a dead stop it was wheel spin city

I'd trade in a second if I didn't live so far up north

Gonna put up a craigslist ad later on..
