Can't you guys just imagine Javad showing up to the next track day with his
car pimped out with all the Pep Boys "performance" products? I bet the other
racers would be laughing so damn hard they'd have trouble controlling their
cars.
Though....you did forget the neon illuminated 5" exhaust tip, the $150
coilover kit with 900lb/in springs, and of course the various "Type R"
badges and stickers. Better make another trip before the next big race!
