So I've been a bit busy with the car recently. I finished up the Procharger twin intercoolers to single FMIC setup. It's performing very well so far and I can't wait to get it to the track in a little over a month. I can probably find a way to get my custom halo foglights back in but for now, I'm liking the FMIC look. The front bumper had some stone chips and such which really bothered me so I had it repainted as well. I also installed a set of Corbeau LG1 seats which were custom upholstered to match the existing interior color. The centers use perforated leather to give some of the OEM look. These fit me like a glove and are so much more supportive than the stock seats. I was rushing to snap some pics before the sun went down.

I love your car man. How much were those Corbeau's to get reupholstered like that? My Corbeau Targa's are in need of some work......I'm thinking two tone black and suede in the Pontiac GXP style.
Side note......when are you hitting the track and what track? Not the Cecil LTx round two on the 17th of Nov by chance?

Thanks Sean. Figure around $1k in material and labor for the seat work. I am heading to Atco on Nov 30th for a private rental I've organized. We have a spot or two if you are interested.

Aw jeez, I miss racing at Atco. Used to live 15 minutes south of there. As much as I'd love to partake, I am gonna have to pass as I don't have much time left off from work. As a side thought though, just in case I can work something.......how much are we talking for a spot? Shoot me a PM if you don't want to say here. I'm half committed to Cecil on the 17th, but I prefer the rental environment far and beyond more than an open T&T while I'm still trying to get used to the car and work the kinks out.

Its $200 per car with a $20 non-refundable deposit (deposit included with $200). I much prefer a rental as it really does make it easier to get that much needed seat time without the stress or hassle of a t&t night. Some are good but most times I only get three runs.

I wonder if our local track does that. $200 for a semi private track day is a steal! How many hours is it yours for?
Btw, love the car. Vert+rollbar=sex

Thanks man. Rental runs from 9-4:30. We had fun last year and even had a small lunch BBQ. I only got a handful of runs before I noticed all of my rear studs were tweaked lol. I am better prepped this year.

That's one good lookin bird I like the interior, wrapping those seats the same color was a good idea.
