alright a few things, i have yet to get springs, but im toying with the idea of selling these wheels for another set, but if no one buys it by xmas or something then i'll rock it. here's a few pic mounted on









obviously wheel gap is huge cuz im not lowered, if i do keep these i wont rock them till i get springs as well

and my new grille

Car is coming along really well man. I always forget that you've cleared your headlights and it looks real good with your new grille. I think the wheels like great on grigio too...keep em!! And take some better pics of the grille!!

+1 for keeping the 11r's. Just replace the tires with at least a 225 and drop it. Oh and please keep the weekend undergarments out of the pics next time. We dont need to know what you do on saturday nights to be able to afford Works on a college budget. haha, I kid.

Is that a gap between the hood and grill in the first pic? Or just the liner underneath? Other than that, I think it looks great.

Also, those 11Rs look pretty good on the car. I assume that's the glim silver finish. We'd be able to see better once you get a drop and when half the car isn't in the air I guess.

there IS a gap, that's because the OEM grille has some rubber/silicon piece to seal it. so i just got some black/grey weatherstrips and put it there, i havent really had time to really trim it to the perfect fit yet so hence a bit is sticking out. but i'll fix it this weekend

nice ed ;]

i was just wondering what kind of paint you used for your mesh

was it a flat or metallic paint?





i think the kind of paint he used is pretty awesome looking or do you guys think it was just the lighting of the pics?
