Thanks for the compliments. Paint is done and both pieces will be put on today. I do not think I will have time to take pics before it gets dark so should have some up no later than tomorrow.

Wheels are indeed Montanas. Best decision I have made as far as a wheel purchase. I love them and they will not require a 2nd mortgage. Roofie was flee-bay special. The car is lowered on Megan LP Coilovers. They can go much lower, but read below why I do not if you want.

As for the ride height (high life, I get it ). Let me start off by saying I am a 33 year old bank VP. The days of tucked wheels, airbags, 4 subs, etc. are sadly over for me. I do a lot of entertaining and golf in my business and the people that ride in my car are typically my age or older (usually much older). They would probably not enjoy scraping over speedbumps or turning into inclined driveways creeping as to not rip the front-end off. Not saying there is anything wrong with it becuase I love seeing set-ups like that. However, I am too old and my profession does not lend (banker joke) to pushing the envelope. I just wanted a tasteful set-up and hopefully I will have acheived that.

Pics up tomorrow
