Hey, welcome to my thread! Obviously, my name is Ethan, located in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Anyway.. pics now..
So. This was taken on the first day(Sometime late September). I had to work that day, so my parents went and bought it/picked it up and later picked me up from work in it. The only options we got with it was a lip spoiler, bluetooth, the upgraded carpet kit, and a tint. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pic.

It was stock until Christmas, when my parents bought me the TRD quickshifter(and installation) and gave me like $200 to save for other mods, among other random stuff.

Mid January, 2011: Bought a GReddy SE and Eibach Sportlines from Meng Motorsports, but had to wait until yesterday to get them installed because I'm BROKE.

A few pictures of the exhaust on my car: (sorry for any dirtiness.. the recent 8 inches of snow has not been kind to my car.)



The exhaust sounds and looks amazing. If my camera can pick up a decent sound clip, i'll post one within the next few days or so.
I'll get some pics of the whole car up after all of this snow stops coming my way..

I'd like to, but I don't know if that'll happen unless I move. Speed bumps/tables EVERYWHERE. And a lot of steep-pitched driveways and such. I'd rather keep my exhaust in good condition than go lower.
Just saying that does not stop people haha. I have eaten my own words. When I first bought my tC, I was pretty happy with the stock height since I had a Van before. After looking at more and more pictures.. I hated my wheel gap more than anything

Yeah, unfortunately.. Going to be mad if they start cutting into my spring break.
We'll definitely keep you informed. Hopefully we can find somewhere to meet that'll split the distance between all 3 of us.

We are getting more snow here tomorrow, tuesday, and wednesday. Sad to say, my car will be in my garage for a while. Lol. But when it clears up, im game for driving down and meeting wherever! Anyone know of some good picture spots? Sorry, im kinda a picture *****. Hahaha
You'll switch to coilovers for moar low someday. You'll realize you can't not scrape and it becomes a lifestyle. Good progression so far, love that exhaust. But just curious (and i'm totally not putting this in a mean way) why dont you install the stuff yourself?

Hayseed: my parents are crazy about this car. They told me that anything I do to this car has to be done by a professional.. Until the warranty expires.
Allenxtc: thanks! It was expensive, but worth it!
