I'm alive!

I was literally home for 1 hour before the car came out of the garage and I was working on my parking lights and intake.

Thanks again to bmore07tls for the intake hose he gave me at the wedding. I installed it yesterday. Had to remove the throttle body spacer to not have to damage it to install. I need to order another bolt and gasket for it. We'll see, I know there are debates on if it's hurts throttle response. We shall see...

I'll be posting some pictures. Had a fantastic time at Aaron's wedding...thanks again for the invite. I met some really cool members and our wives all got along and everyone was exactly who and how they are online. Was really an awesome time.

Those RS have pretty good concave for a 18x9 wheel. I wonder how a 18x10 would look. By the way, have you ever thought of putting 235/35/18 in the back to give it a wider tire look? The car is looking really good by the way. Keep it up.

Thanks, man...No sir, I had done 225 in the past with my works so I knew I wanted to keep that width. I'm VERY close to the fender so I really can't afford to go any wider without giving more negative camber.

Came burrrrrrrr.

Chip, you're handsome and you know it. So STFU.

Cool pic of the car.



Although, you can't say you're Bond unless you have an Aston Martin.
