there is a light stretch. I did end up having to add a little bit of negative camber to tuck the front wheels, however, I don't regret the decision to stick with the 35mm. They would have just been too flat.

Okay, now you have to black the calipers so they don't pop behind the wheels, especially since not bbk.
and what in the fuck, no tire shine!??! SHAMEEEEEE

we want high res...
looks killer though, and looking forward to the front diffusers.
GF's Mom just got a red aspec TLX too...looking forward to fucking with it.

yeah, the car is filthy at the moment. The car is still not 100%. I need to fine tune the height, get the alignment done and install the splitters. I was only able to snap those photos real quick after installing the wheels. My friend was waiting on me so we could leave for Vegas. He drove. I didn't even get to drive the car until today. Feels good. Once I get the splitters installed, ill wash it and give it a shoe shine. Out here in the desert they don't stay looking that nice with all the sand sticking to them.

my buddy asked the same thing. I think I'm done with it. At most, I might do some sort of exhaust mod. I'm very happy with how it's come out. I haven't felt like this over a car in quite a while.

In case you haven't heard it enough, the car looks amazing!

We haven't forgotten about getting you setup, we're still trying to work it out with the fabricators - I'll let you know as soon as we nail it down.

Can't wait to see what's next!

not for this year's aspec due to the rear bumper change. Not 100% sure it'll all line up right yet.

Thanks everyone for the kind words! I'm very proud of how the car came out. I would have loved to bag the car, however I just couldn't justify spending that kind of money on it. I'm not one to get the cheapest model just in order to have the product.
