Maybe one day I'll max it, but for now I'm happy with the height and drivability.

I can see it being doing jacking up one corner at a time, but it seems like a pain using the jack points in the middle F/R. I did play around with the height a few times before getting it aligned. It was tucking a little tire initially, but I bumped up each corner a hair to run no gap. With the factory wheels, it reminded me of all the cheap cars around town that slam on stock wheels. The car almost looks broken and cheap.

love the drop with the a-spec rims!
I wish my stance was like this!
I just need 20mm spacers and coilovers and camber kit to match lol

not sure yet what I want to do. I'm thinking I want more contrast on the front end. So I might be trying to infuse more Chrome back in there. I already have the type-s diffusers which give me white/clear color workout totally losing the Amber which I really dig with nbp. Here's a pic of my headlight. Maybe if we do it together we can swap your Chrome housing for my flat black painted one.

Looks Great Adam! How do you like the SPC rear camber kit, and assume you had no trouble getting toe in check. ? Did u come up to Tampa to have Gabe do the install?
Damn, that rolling shot of that White TL!
Lol!

Yup, I had Gabe do the install. The camber kit is really easy to adjust and the shop doing the alignment said they didn't have any problems. I'm glad I went with this over the Ingalls. The new OEM dust boots are cheap and easy to swap out. How did the side skirts work out for you?

Adam, you sure you're not a good candidate for super reds? I really do dig your setup and how it just looks like a badazz build on the oem look. I'd almost prefer to see you maybe do a blackout on the headlight but keep the amber, and do the super red look to keep the red look.
Hmmm...

I want to keep the amber in the headlights. I like to amber, just want to make people scratch their head and wonder why my headlights look different.
About the tails, I really don't think they will stand out enough for me to justify spending the money to mod them.![Shrug](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/shrug.gif)
Yup, 15/20 and no rubbing.
Thanks!

I have a stage 3 exhaust already. There really isn't a whole lot left on my list. I just want to keep it running good and keep up with routine maintenance.

I'm sure I'll find little things to do, but nothing big. I like clean and simple. I drive over 20k miles a year so I need it to be reliable. This car is not built for performance, especially the auto. I got this after driving a modded Cobra, so I know it won't ever be to that level.

I haven't been able to get new pics with all the rain here recently, but I did start a new project this morning. I've been getting a lot of rattling from my OEM sub and I finally pulled apart the rear interior to fix it. I read about a product called Peel & Seal that works just like dynamat, but at a fraction of the cost. I picked it up at Lowes for $17 for a 6''x25' roll. The bass sound nice and clean now.

There was already a few pieces of dynamat between the sub and driver speaker. It was really hot and you can see where I started putting left over pieces.![Tongue](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
