Updates! Car has not been cleaned since worked on it, so please excuse

Underhood:
New wiring harness with some mods (for factory HID headlights)
Moroso coolant tank
Moroso power steering tank
Radiator cover extensions (corners above headlights)

Exterior:
Rear calipers color matched to front Brembo's (black)
Rotor hats, edges, and vanes painted (silver)
Factory HID headlights (got crazy deal, had to fix one broken clip which is main reason for the radiator extension covers)
2010+ Roush splitter retro-fitted to my CS fascia

Go (woah?)
Hawk HPS pads F&R, better bite and should dust less (factory gt500 pads are horrible dusters)
BMR Driveshaft loop

Looking good! Love that vista blue. What did you paint the calipers with? I keep going back and forth over Brembos. Should I get them or not, so indecisive.

G2, expensive but Ive seen bad results with other products. And yes, yes you should get the Brembo's, better brake feel and helps fill our huge wheels (although makes tiny back brakes even funnier)

I removed since I was painting the rotors.. but actually remounted teh caliper to the spindle when painting them, easy way to hold it up

I have the blue ford racing valve covers and I think the red will throw it off. Having is ocd when it comes to decision making is the worst lol!

I just need to quit messing around and order the brembos from am, paint the rear calipers and call it the day!!!

I'm on a roll! Plasti-dipped the trunk lid, didnt come out right (one weird spot with bubbles, and it tore along where I taped it) so I'll have to peel it. But what say you? Don't like it at all, like it flat black, or go black but gloss? (the tail lights are on FYI). Also, blackout the faux gas cap or leave it chrome?
