Update: I just ordered a new front rim, and i have had a bad idle problem and its the IAC valve so i cleaned it and it didn't get any better. So i bought a new one of those haha

Plans for future:
Mini wire tuck
Raising the front driver side up just a tad
Recaro SRD's/S2000 seats (haven't decided yet)
Turbo back exhaust
Wink mirror
Respray valve cover!
ect..
