Hey thanks everyone for the compliments! ok the answers to the questions
-the wheels are sportmax(obviously) 19x8.5 fr and 19x9.5 rr and the tires are 235/30/19 fr and 245/40/19 rr. I want to go a bit wider on the tire but not until they go bad, they are really freakin expensive!
-I noticed the wrap was going in different directions after I did it and then I ran out of the stuff so I'm stuck with it until I get more haha.
-I dont really have that great of a camera, its an older nikon coolpix point and shoot. I probably wont make it to the meet, I have to work that weekend.
-The car actually rode really nice until I put those bushings on it, now I get bit more roadshock, but as long as the pavement is decently smooth It rides like a cadillac. unfortunately this means it doesnt take turns for crap.
-the wrap on the interior pieces is a 3m vinyl.

I'm still curious about the CF wrap in the engine. I wanted to do the intake pipe on my '99 the same way, but was worried about putting any sort of 'wrap' in the engine bay due to the heat. Kinda worried about it melting or catching fire. So I'm assuming this 3M stuff will be ok in the engine? Can u provide more info? Where'd u get it??

they are a +35 offset fr and rr. I rolled the rear fenders and that was it. the carbon wrap stuff uses heat to be applied so I figured it was cool. I found it from a guy on a vw forum that was selling the extra he had. you can get it here www.carbonfibergear.com/ its actually getting cheaper so thats good. heres a few pics I took today. I was doing a little hdr+lomo experimenting. Im having a tough time making them not too dark.

we need to get a photoshoot together. I was thinking like a japanese muscle kind of thing. I have a few friends with some beastly cars that could be a part of it. couple 240s making over 500, sti making over 500 350z making over 500. come to think of it I would be the only one not making over 500hp
