the gunmetal color turned out to be a good match with the TiGrey but I was hoping it was lighter- a little too dark for me. But it turned out not too bad growing on me slowly.

yup stock...

Haven't been able to decide on which springs, or if I will need new shocks for whatever spring I decide on. Leaning towards the Eibachs or the S-techs or maybe even the H-tech because none of these will require new shocks. More research is in order...

Really? That might be but as far as I know they are still being offered for sale. Here is a list of US dealers from Works US site.

I highly recommend RAV-SEPC in NY . Stay as far away as possible from R & D Motorsports in S. Carolina if you want if you want authentic wheels…

Thanks tricker. Picked them up at $320 a piece new.

How you liking it? For me the set up has been great. The cars feels very securely planted in turns and the Potenzas are a great complement as they are really hard to break of the asphalt. The only downside has been the decreased mileage. But still I highly recommend this set up for the 8
