Looks good.

I'll be putting my snow rims on within a few weeks.
I got another full set of 40th anniversary with my blizzak tire in storage waiting for me.

So I'll be keeping the original look.

My 8 will sit in my garage all winter. I don't feel like spending the money on snow tires and taking the risk that some other idiot will run into me.

I have the Tein dampers. How do yours make the hood sit flush? I trimmed the plastic so it clears that, but the mounting bracket still adds a very slight gap no matter what.
