JACKSON I wish i had more hands so I could give you 4 thumbs up!.

..I really like the stance of your car and wheel choice. Please list more details of what you went with for wheels and suspension. And also if the ride is comfortable/scraping issues plus any other mods you did such as fender work and tail light treatment would be appreciated too. (just trying to pick your brain )

..I really like the subtle look you have going on alot.. Low, clean and no camber. I'm sure the RCAs helped. EXACT ones right?

..This is the fitment i am striving for but with a possible new house coming up and other unexpected issues i want to know how long it will take for me to get to this point money wise.




BTW: Got pics of your car hanging on my office wall at work and love em. (no homo)

Haha, been super busy at work lately, just haven't had time to stop by CL as much... plus I have no LED's left to replace

Thanks for all the compliments, I'm not going to complain about moving this to suspension/brakes, but its seems a little odd?

Wheels are SSR Professor (work bolts go around the entire, ssr stops at the spokes) 19x10 +42 19x10.5+30 235/35-275/30, I cant put a piece of paper between my knuckle assy and the wheel up front, but it clears... I want to go bigger front tire soon...

I'm the asst mgr at a large tire company and I dont really like working on tires with tire shine on them. So I keep it off my tires because I play around with sizes so much...

The spoiler is the only knockoff item on my car. I really do understand the logic and reason to buy authentic parts. But $600.00 on a strip of fiberglass is absurd... I especially like the replica more because it is poly-urethane and I dislike fiberglass. I'm sorry if this offends the authentic-only guys, but if they JP one wasnt so absurdly priced, I would've considered it more seriously.

I would like to get an exhaust soon, but that will only come if I go VVTi GTE. Trying to find one on the west coast....

RCAs are SAGE, front fenders are flattened, sealed and clearcoated, rears are shaved but still left enough weld not to pull the fenders apart. Doesnt rub, but I need to figure out what I want to do with my UCA->shock tower hitting

clean... What are the specs of your wheels (size + offset)? Also are your tire sizes?
