Erin's Grigio 4G Progress Thread, Staggard Vossen CV3's, Tein S-Tech Springs, Lip Kit
#122
Well pics didn't happen before the springs, They got here yesterday earlier than expected and I couldn't wait took about 6.5 hours worked well into the night but it's down low and looking right. For anyone attempting this yourself it took a 4 foot pry bar and an extra set of hands to get the rears in and out... I gotta talk to some people who have done the install themselves and see if I missed a step or two to make the rears easier...

The width of the tires aren't the problem its the sidewall height. you should be running 285/30 and 245/35 tires to get a closer OD match to oem wheel specs.

The speedo is only off 2 mph at 60 and with these tires. With those you've gotta roll the rear fenders to be within acura specs on alignment... They are about equal height to the 255/30/20 alot of people are running in the rear to not roll fenders... I opted for wider rather than taller but didn't want to mess with the body shape...

Yeah the wife wanted to be closer to the look of the 12... So I had Nexson do the outer surround and he knocked it outta the park with the paint work...
Thanks Man, I built this one for the wife actually... but since I finished it you can't really tell cause I've been driven the hell out of it LoL... Had to get some man time in before I order her the Little Pink Vossen Stickers for the side windows... and thanks for the Photog compliment...

Yeah I've been debating making that happen, but I've got one cropped a bit tighter and lower... guess you just pushed me over the top... Just changed it...
Yeah man I love it, Off camera lighting and bending light on people is really my thing but I love shooting cars too... I've gotta transform the garage into a studio tommorow afternoon for a model shoot... Time to pull out the backdrops and Alienbee's and have some fun...

Yea user_error's wife is pretty cool. She seems to know her stuff, I really noticed when we were having a random conversation and she started talking about the tire holding a bead.

Wow, what a lucky guys! My wife listens to be nice, but her eyes glaze over. She really couldn't care less.
