yeah i'll get some not in the grass tomorrow (today technically) i guess. those were just quickies since it looked like it might still keep raining on us here.

on the other hand, took the car to it's first show today as well and they picked top 10 cars with no number order and i did win one of the trophies so i was excited about that.

Looks great, but I think some spacers would really set those wheels off. Being that low, it really needs to be a bit less sunken in.

i have still YET to receive the cat-back...it's in dallas somewhere with UPS but there's supposed to be a tracers on it but i still haven't heard anything back yet.

i would do spacers but with the spacers they'd have to be fairly small because the fender liner doesn't just go straight up into the fender, they go inwards about 1/2" and then go up, so anything bigger than about a 12mm spacer would cause me to rub all the time with the car as low as it is

Hmm. I guess all the cars I've seen 25mm spacers on have been the style like mine. I'll try to take a look at the newer style 8 when I go up to the dealership next time.

I tried searching and could not find anything but i could have sworn I read the shocks bodies were wider on the R3.
