Midnight Build Thread (New hood and other mods)

Midnight Build Thread (Dezod EMS!)
I've been thinking about doing this for a while. I've seriously enjoyed watching some you guys making your car unique. KidJustin, Backinblacktc2, and Scion202, you guys have been serious inspiration. So in the spirit of scion personality I thought I'd make my own build thread.

Black ftw, even though I still secretly covet the Mag. Grey...
Get ready for people to aproach you left and right about your new ride. I have people giving me props from all ages, genders, races. Sadly the old dudes on Harley's seem to be my car's biggest fan base!
The young chick ratio is way off...

People come up to me all the time asking about my car. It's cool that people recognize my car and what I've done. I do enjoy meeting new people. Especially at car shows I get the regular " Dude I hate scions but your car is bad ___ make me want to buy one." lol

Haha yeah last weekend I was in Boston with my windows down and sunroof open and these two guys walked past and one pointed said to his friend "thats car I was telling you about. Always brings a smile to my face.
Sadly though, the girl to guy ratio is completely off when it comes to compliments.

I ordered my NST pulley today. It's about time I get to work on my car again.
Also I've been talking to Rob over at Descendant and I have to say that he has been very helpful with figuring out the turbo set up I'm going to get this summer.

Wow. So today was fun! I decided to paint my brake calipers. I bought the kit from Advanced Auto Parts and I must say it was an eventful day to say the least.
First I started by jacking the car up. (I've never put a car on 4 jack stands before so that was interesting.)
Then I made a novice mistake and broke on of the lug studs...
After a trip to another Advanced, I got a new lug installed.
Here's two pictures of the final product: I think it turned out really nicely.
(sorry about the cell phone photos, that was the only camera I had on me.)
