How good is the lug quality? I might buy the blue one but I'm afraid if I take it off one da it strips the lug. Happened to my friend before, but with different lugs.

They seem to be good quality. I took them to KC Trends, who is a wheel and tire customizer here in Kansas City. They liked the quality.

Thank Laxmax17-he was the one that PM'd me with the link! I don't know how he remembered I was looking for these lugs. I think I posted that about 2 or 3 years ago...

Thanks! I actually used some of the Griot's Garage wheel cleaner on them-they really did turn out nice.
It was great spending the evening with you and your girlfriend at Fast Fridays. I'm glad you liked the lugs, buddy!
I appreciate that-I know you have critical eye, so I appreciate your kudo's.
NOTE: I think I found a guy in Kansas City that can anodize the locking lug nuts. I'm going to take them to him this week...hopefully!

Thanks to Swoosh for coming over this afternoon for this new performance mod....
Here is the new mod!
Taking of the throttle body...
New chrome throttle body spacer getting installed.
Install is completed.
The beauty shot...
I bought this on sale from XLR8-thanks to Jason for his assistance! I wanted a red TSB, but they weren't in stock at the time of order.
Anxious to get the Type S out on the road.
