i want to drive around with the kit first and see how much i do/don't scrape. if i clear fine on my driveway and most of the places i go i'll drop it right after that.

Great choice in front (and sides). This is the only front piece I'd get (and will) as it matches the 8's lines perfectly. Where's the final result pics? lol

^^^ Funny Chrism,

Between all the hype that klepto's been singing about your's, his and now this! Ima DYIN! I can't wait for my IRS refund. I'm a procrastinator I know, but with that and our federal govt's gift, and I'm married so I qualify for the larger amount, OMG New wheels, and a kit are definitely all I think about! The sad part is that if I can FINALLY make a decision the Dragon will be spit polished and ready to roll for BOTD but I cant go! lol

quoting Chrism "are we there yet"
Damn I need to learn to quote more often!

No havent forgotten SHINKA believe me. I want those Hiros so bad I can taste them but I live in AL, and I would have to drive to Lynchburg VA at least to get them. Lord knows they are worth it, but convincing my husband to let me put that many miles on his jeep to go after them is another thing entirely....and I have to wait on my money before I can mention I want them again. . Had intended on buying them, months ago but sh8t happens...lol

Dont feel too bad. I've had my car almost 2 years, still stock rims as you can see. Only minor mods for me...and my KIDS are GROWN! Ya think I'd have some extra spending money??? NOT! lol

taking the pics there since i don't know how much time i'll have when i get it home. i have a conference down in philly so i'm still trying to determine plans based on when it is done. i asked if the front would fit in the 8 and kenny mentioned kel had done it before so i'm planning on reclining the passenger seat and jam it in there.
