Yeah, I agree. try plastidipping the smiley face part. I think it will flow a bit better.

And we should definitely do a meet. Dont really see too many cu2 gatherings yet. I'm down anytime, but its gotta be a weekend.

Oh and get your rims and coilovers installed asap! lol Cant wait to see those bbs LMs in person. If you are still shopping around, you may want to ask the speedzone guys to give you a price. had them price out some wheels for me and they were actually pretty competitive with what I was finding online.

yes plasti dip comes in a spray can or in a jar for brushing on or dipping. What most people use is the spray. i dont really have much experience in spraying. the first thing i plastidipped was my emblems on my honda civic before i got my tsx

Wow yeah. Thats really uneven. You got subs or a body in the trunk? haha If you dont want to be scraping around all over the place, the 1 finger gap drop will be as low as you want to go. If you dont mind scraping or running some serious negative camber, then slam it and get some spacers like swoosh said.

We gotta do a meet and photoshoot once you get everything installed. Tried to get something together for sc3. but there was no interest.
