Very sweet ride. No wonder you have been getting a ton of requests for pics, your car is sick. Are those H&R Sports #50103? The back looks really low, do you have a system in the trunk?

Great pics, I love the front grill!

I have about 50-60lbs of stuff for work back there. It might sit up .5" higher when its empty.

I was thinking of getting the 50103's but my wheels/tires completely fill the wheel well and I am concerned about rubbing. I had to get 5mm spacers to clear the calipers and that puts the edge of the rim even with the top of the fenders.

Do you ever rub with your 50103's?

Looks good True sleeper right there.

When you putting the IC in?

You should also swap the door handles for all black ones. Car would be even stealthier.

As soon as I get a Sunday that doesn't have a high of <40 degrees i'll get crackin'. Cold hands = bad times. I've got plenty of help so it shouldn't take that long.

And i've been wanting to swap the handles, but I don't know how involved the swap is.

Yeah, its not easy to work when you can't feel your hands.

I'll PM you the insturctions out of the Helms manual when I get home from work. Its not that hard. THe first one took a little time, but the second one was quick to do.

Swirl marks are a bitch though! But you can't beat the reflective qualities of black.

Yes I have the Tokicos and the ride is a little more firm than stock.

The rear camber is off ever so slightly but I haven't had unusual wear issures.

The need for a camber kit depends on the car not the drop.

Thanks for posting the pics Steve. I noticed the rear was low, but yeah 50-60 lbs of stuff will do that. I love the M5 lip spoiler as well. Very clean.

Where did you mount your V1? Upper driver's side? By the rearview mirror? I want to hardwire the thing and get the remote display, just trying to figure out where the best place to mount it is.

EDIT: I saw the V1 by the rearview mirror in one of the pics.
