9k, I absolutely love your car. You have set a standard for the OEM+ look.

wtf is your point anyway? are you in some way suggesting that removing shocks and installing coilovers is just as easy as pressing a button on a spray can?

Oh you messed up a spring install. Well done. You should keep giving people advice on how to do things.

9krpmrx8- Cars are looking great buddy. Now get the aero's on

Danmn858- Color is pretty interesting. I was originally doing a neochrome like color on my old set of wheels and doing my roll bar and air diverter panel. I was going to match it with my burnt titanium bolts and lug nuts on the car...but my funds ended up going towards motor upgrades.

Thanks Dennis, I was actually looking into doing neochrome faces... but its $500 per face. Ridiculous!

I'm not a fan of that blue rx8..too much going on. Too Fast& furious looking. Meh.

Looks like a fun shop in the background though...work in progress supra, skyline, and i can't quite make out the other car(240 or old skyline?). If that was my shop though I'd for sure have that **** more secure than fence to keep thieves out!
