looks real good, did you paint or pc the wheels?

and yup, you should definitely lower it
Painted. 5 coats of Flat black hi temp wheel paint each wheel. Took about 5 cans to do. And about 2.5 hours each wheel to tape up. (first one was about 4 hours--by the last wheel I got it down to about 1.5 hours).

You should do a DIY on the head lights MODS?
Step by step from LED used, and wiring setup.

What Will said

Just kidding. Can't wait to see them in person. They look damn slick. Also, +1 for the RE-070's. I think those will be my first replacement tire.

Your rims look good too.

Will and Ryan... I both know where you live.

Get Z1 Starspecs Ryan.. or at least try them out. I dunno if you'd like the 070's only lasting 6k miles! I know I'm not looking forward to it...

Dezymond, PM sent. Thanks a lot!

Stay tuned.. I've got something in the works. Thing R8.. exact same spacing, custom laid LEDs with turn signals built in to the board...

True. I'm inclined to try the Z1's since everyone says they're the Jesus of tires, but I do like the grippy-ness of the RE-070's. The quick turnaround replacement time would suck, though, that's for sure.

Thanks Lewis! Lowering is next, but when you're broke, "next" could be months away
I've been telling myself I'll lower my car for two years...



still hasn't happened
