That car looks great with that lip. Rear aero flares would add the final touch for a clean look.

i would love to know all the specs on that black car... im pretty sure its the same one as the one on page 83 so that makes the wheels 18x9.5 +15 with 245/40 can anyone confirm this? seibon sides? burnout front lip? thats what im guessing... but the suspension specs... it sits so perfect... i want to know!

just wondering...

does anyone use megan coilovers for their set ups?
i'm kind of considering them solely for fitment purposes of new wheels and not really peformance.
is this a good idea or bad?

Ever since kewscott's black MS 8 with redded out tails I've liked them on black.

I really need to get on Shines *** to finish the kit so I can put the original on, its killing me!

10.5 +15 & 265/35 can work on our car guys

Zumn is just being silly. A lot of people will be buying the SA-60M and I'm sure some of them will be 8 owners
