have a pony waiting till i get the car painted. Antenna is a 3 ft long fishing pole waiting for the carbon fiber shorty to arrive.I will post more pics once car is better need to get a smaller spring for the rear, tuckin 17 in front and proud of it so far.

And jonbeast i think im gonna have to wait till i one day get 18s raise the front up one inch and the camber competly changes on this car

If you get CC plates...the car will actually look more slammed, because the tire will come out to the fender more. Right now it kinda looks broken...if you like the camber look, maybe get some spacers to bring the top of the tire out to the lip of the fender?

looks awesome. your car could really benefit from some forward offset control arms/ k member. I have never seen a wheel that far back in the fender. any back story on that?

if u mean are both front tires a lil stretched then yes. It makes the sidewalls stiffer on the tire giving them less flex making it easier to transition from left to right while going sideways 225 wide on a 9in wheel. And u know i never looked at how far back my wheels were i know the control arms arent oe but there oe spec have to look at my friends car and see today? And jb with the 18s and the height a lil bit higher the wheel are right at the fender,Old roush wheels with higher offset even lowered my car used to be so high

at this height i was 2in above the tire on a 18in wheel at height i am now i am .78 above a 17 inch wheel so im alot lower than i used to be

I would keep it that color. You dont see it everyday and it looks nice. Plus its easier to take care of.

Agreed, stick with the silver...I think once you repaint it you'll fall in love with it again.

Black is a pain in the ass. If it sits outside and is a daily driver, it'll look like shit 80% of the time. Trust us.
