    Back to the exhaust shop tomorrow for the necessary changes to the exhaust system. Couldn't resist a little sound clip beforehand though.

    The console project is finally done. Also of note is the new to me factory A/C dash tray that my buddy wrapped in the same material and we modded to accept the Billet Specialties vents so they all match.

    A purely OCD addition over the winter was swapping to crossdrilled and slotted rotors on both ends. Simple enough on the rear even though Wilwood wants a stupid amount for their rotors. The front has the RRS stage 2 brakes. Had to contact them to find out what the rotors were. Turns out they are 2004 GTO with C5 Corvette calipers. Beats m why but that's what they are so had to get the fronts drilled for the Ford pattern.

    But why? Even NASCAR doesn't use drilled rotors (just slotted).
    Everything looks excellent...

    And another thing... lol... Finally got these sequential LED tail lights from Digitails. Ordered in November. Received them in April. o_O Anyway, we color matched the bezels which I like a lot. Overall these lights are very cool and will be seen way better than the original incandescent bulbs.

    I like the tail lights, but that license plates the best.

    Thanks! Honestly it was way down the list. Crazy how many people have some derivative of the word "blue" on their plates in Arkansas.
