    Picked up my carving heads today. I traded my ESM wheels for them.





    Then I test fit them to figure out what sorta spacers I want to get.

    So this weekend I did a full exterior detail. I washed, clay bar where needed, wet sanded where needed, hit it with some medium compound then put down some NXT, let it cure for a hour Buffed it off then layered Mirror Glaze26 over it



    also worked on the hard deck a little. Waiting on the chrome trim to come in so I can finish the edge



    Couple shots while out this morning





    THEN I had to do an oil change this morning and I have a REALLY REALLY bad habit of when I have the car apart I NEED to change something. Sooooooooo while I had the bumper of I swapped back over to the OEM front lip, and put the zenki heads back in LOL

    Oh I also reinstalled the middle south shore grill now that I figured out the right way to install it!



    Last but not least I an HOPING!!!!!!!!! to have some new wheels in the next week or so and at that point the skirt will come off also.

    AND! I have some switch backs coming for the turn signals, some new decals and some LED DRLs for the cut outs in the scudetto.

    might be getting a set limited white carving head 40's. Specs are week, but I just space them and run a square set up if I get them.

    Finished painting my SSR's last weekend and put them on. Then yesterday I finished polishing and installing my South Shores blade billet grill set.

    Love the wing, and the refurbed wheels!

    It would be really cool if you had some sort of decal on that ducktail spoiler once it's painted.

    So my spoiler finally showed up today after it getting lost for a few weeks and sitting in customs another week.

    A quick test fit. I also started prep work on it today. Laid down the etching primer, then a filler primer. Found some pin holes in the seams so tomorrow ill hit it with some filler give it a quick sand and start painting it!








    Another slow project ive been working on is painting my SSR's. The factory paint was flaking bad on two of the wheels and I plan on having them sent out in the winter to be re finished. So I figured why the heck not, and just doing a quick DIY for the summer season. Got 2 wheels done so far. Im not taking the faces off, but I did mask off all the wheel bolts.


    In the shade



    and in the sun

    theres a select few that go threw the trouble of tracking down and importing rare parts from japan.

    and thats the reason I love it. However I will argue that the Kia Soul is much uglier and in a bad way.
