After a whole month of cloudy and rainy weather, we finally get some sunshine here in the bay! So I took a short drive to the shoreline for a sunset photo shoot~ :love:

Enjoy!

After a long day (more like 5 minutes) the sun sets and it starts to get @ss freezing cold! One last shot and it's time to go :P

I'm not a huge fan of white cars. For some reason it looks great on an Xa. On some of the pictures the side sill just disappears and the car looks like it has a body kit on it.

Razo H3 and H4 hyperwhites. They're white with a light hint of blue.

A few more random pics :D

Nokya aluminum pedal set (cheap, but they work nicely for heel shifting :P)

Now negotiating with a friend of mine who works for a body shop to see if they can paint a lip kit for cheap. Depending on how it goes, I might have some more pictures to take soon! :P

Thanks for the comments and suggestions :D

The CF hood is definitely something I'll be adding later this year. I'm toying with the idea of a CF spoiler, but that'll have to wait until someone decides to make it :P

I just got my Toyota and Ist emblems from cseika (thanks a million) and plan to put that in once it gets warmer in the bay area~

Next month I'll be taking a trip to Los Angeles, at that time I'll be able to stop by the Raceonusa warehouse and grab a Kenstyle knock off kit for 350! Much better than paying a whopping 150 to ship it. Definitely looking forward to the day my panda will stop looking like every other xA in my neighborhood.
