Never get tired of looking at your car. Simply amazing. Never seen 18x10 43 RE30s before.

Love how your car looks. But this is a classic example of what fits and what does not. These 18X10s look great and the "fit" in there but I do not see that you have a lot of suspension travel left. Maybe I am wrong, not a hater. Just trying to illustrate that one person's "fit" is not the same as another person's "fit".

This is true, you cant exactly just copy somebodies specs and expect them to fit,
As for the suspension travel, I may not be using all that is available, but I am no professional and the car seems to handle fine on the track at the current height.

IwantanS: The color is called "bright silver" powdercoat, but I opted to not lay the clear gloss coat.

Man I love the ass end of your car. That rear bumper makes the flare look like part of the car instead of some horrible rocket bunny kit.

Did you think it would be hard to modify for a dual exhaust?

How as the fit up? Any place sell a knock off? Shine makes one but not the wide one with the built in flares. There also a dual exhaust one but that is narrow as well.

You have had silver, lime green, red, and white wheels(probably more that I do not know of). Have you tried bronze or gold? You are a wheel whore, everyone knows it. If ever settle down with one set which color do you think best compliments Laguna Blue ( I know your car in not Laguna Blue but I still think the same color would work.) And you cannot say red since you are selling your red wheels!

haha thx. it ties in the rear overs very well. my body guy/painter said it fit perfect.
for a dual exit, i would ask go tuning to see if asm makes it. mod'n it is ok but you won't have the surrounding material around tip.

highlighter yellow actually i'll never say never to bronze or gold. perhaps bronze zes
we'll see how much the te37sl +39 set up rubs next auto-x season and i'll go from there.
