Nice ride Lembowski. What percent tint are your rockblockers for the front headlights? Did you do the whole lens, or just the part with the orange?

ooohhh, so these are the wheels you kept talking about that were rubbing. Did you ever get that issue resolved? What did you end up doing? The car looks great Love the wheels, and the A-spec suspension does look perfect

It didn't rub much except over big dips and steep speed bumps. I trimmed off the part of the A-Spec kit that others did and it completely solved the problem. Had a full car Saturday evening without any rubbing at all

I actually like the ride height with the A-Spec suspension. It has a sporty yet good relationship with the road. I think I'll keep this set-up for awhile. These 20's are basically training wheels for me. I always wanted 20's so I need to learn how to drive with these, then I'm gonna get some nice ones here in a year or so. Basically until the tires run out

Why would you title a thread "New pics of my ride" and then casual state, "Oh BTW, here are the rest of the pictures from the San Diego meet."





Anyway, here are the direct posts from the SD meet thread containing pictures:
https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...&postcount=981
https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...&postcount=983

I will be posting my pictures soon. Hopefully tonight. Maybe I'll start a new thread.

Probably because 3 out of the 5 pictures are solely my car, and 2 are of the group.............

Do you have a problem with that chris?

Also I have yet to post pics of the car since putting the 20's on. If you would like I can remove the pictures of your stock ride for the pictures :troll:

You got it fixed? I was hoping we could fix it for you at the mega meet. I was going to bring my hammer and drill

Looks really good. The car sits just right.

The weather looks great. I think some of us SoCal boys need to roll down there one of these day and join you.

Yeah it wasn't a hard fix, I just had to try and find time to do it. I've been really busy at my jobs the past month or so. And yes you guys should roll down sometime. Huy comes down quite often, you should caravan with him

Thanks! The car looks great, and the 20's don't look too big (I usually think they do).

I have the same % tint on the headlights. Do you find that your night visibility/ light ouput is dramatically decreased? I'm still on the fence with my tint. I think it looks awesome during the day, but my friends who have driven in front of me say the light output is fairly weak. Your thoughts are appreciated.

I don't notice a huge difference. No one has said they have noticed a huge difference. But if I park right next to a 3rd gen without rockblockers you can tell a difference. If it really bothers you, you could always upgrade your fogs

Yeah I don't make it down to Chula too much. So it probably wasn't me. Actually I haven't been down there for a month or so

I sencond the fact you should come out to the meets
