The car was and currently is SBM but for some reason Johnny TLW who was there with his SBM GS looks lighter than my car. The car just came out of the body shop the day before the pics were taken the car was fully repainted in 8M6 which is the SBM color.

Camber is currently maxed out on the stock arms, and honestly I have no idea how long they will last. Thankfully I have a great hookup on tires so I'm not crying but like they say "you gotta pay to play". Its the nature of the game.

Thanks Chris, my direction is about to take a rapid u turn as soon as the air suspension comes in lol. I love the way it looks on coils but it takes very large pockets to ride this low, the city is no joke like you know.

Thank you. The spoiler is the only one that I have ever heard of being stateside. It was imported for me by a friend of mine and its the Silk Blaze trunk spoiler.

The wheels are 19x8.5 in the front and 19x10 in the back. Offsets in the front are single digits and rears are negative. The rears are shaved and pulled close to 4 inches. It took a lot of work to make it fit.

Thank you, Lee and Thanks for telling me that I'm nuts on more than one occasion LOL

+1, I love my black GS but everytime I see a nice SBM car I wish I could've found a blue one around here. I'm a little jealous of the SBM guys!
