thanks Dave

after i saw it on Maruiz car i really loved the way it showed off the FMIC

but i do need to drop it some more ...there is 2 spacers that i can remove

i think ill find some rubber grommets ...like garden hose gaskets just to put a little cushioning

Not really man, just some minor detail stuff. The lions share of our 'mods' are going towards website updates, communications solutions, relocation, etc etc. The car just sits there under the cover honestly. I drove it for the first time in months the other day, I forgot how much I love that car! LOL

I now live vicariously through people like yourself, bluelex, lexis11, jtanoyo, and others. You guys are taking big risks and making big steps (DIY FI, complete custom/oem interior swaps, custom ICE, sick suspension mods, insane offsets, etc). Its really good to see people striving to "elevate the plateau" for GS modding (in the same vein as past guys like 'Pimp, RMM, Banana's, etc). I know you guys take alot of flack, and detail nit picking, but trust me there are lots of guys (like myself) that appreciate the fact that you are DOing, as opposed to TALKing.

I know its a little harder to step out there

Thats not too bad, My RMM bumper is only 5" from the ground and I only have the L-tune/Eibach drop ( 1.2") I have to watch my P's & Q's getting in & out of driveways.. I don't know how you guys do it when your ride is slammed

J i'm amazed that you go and step up and actually buy a supercharger that some talked about yet you DID it and are installing it yourself and get a JDM front bumper that almost noone has and install it yourself and you get questions about your grill not being perfect or the placement of the intercooler not being low enough. i really wish people would focus on the good of what your doing, which is making major moves instead of bringing up off topic issues. congrats again to you for actually buying the set up and bumper. i think it looks really good..
