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

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!

Looks good Derek! I'm still mad that the Origin GT wing I was going buy didn't go through. Still looking for one too

Final most accurate sizing on the wheels is 18x11 and 18x12 0.

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!
