Yes the wheels are fully brushed and cleared. Faces and Lips.

Thanks, that onicamber crap is not for me. I need to be able to drive my car. I actually took out all camber before I brought it to the shop. So I can camber in if I go bigger in the future.

So to continue with several other things that are going on/in the car:

RE Audio XXX powered by US AMPS monoblock







I had purchased a set of aristo headlights that were ECE from a japanese ebay seller a few years back in order to use for a retrofit. I had these lights finished in the end of 2010 by Rich from HIDILLUSIONZ. LS430 projectors in the lowbeam with Bixenon E55/745Li projectors in the high beam.
