Nice progress...SSM is sexy as hell! Nice HDR photos too! I'm not sure if this is your taste but a black roof on a SSM would make a nice touch.

Not really hard, the hardest point was to find an entry point for the wire and take it by inside the car !

Since you went from super lightweight wheels (enkei RPF1) to those work emotion, do you feel a difference in acceleration from a stop? what about highway driving going 60mph than going wide open throttle, do you feel any difference between the two wheels?
