Looks goon! I like the BLK out on the tails and your car looks really clean for it being BLK. Send some of that nice weather in the background my way would ya!

how do you like the new tires?

i like the blacked out tails best during the day with the brake lights on... that's actually the only time i like them but it does look good in the garage.

Looking Clean!

Now I'd say, you just need some kind of exhaust setup to compliment that rear a bit more.

Looks very nice!!! Out here in Southern Cali those tails are screaming to get pulled over by the cops. Guess that's one of the benefits of living in NV.

The drop looks more aggressive in the pics than it really is. There is 1 finger gap on all 4 corners. Actually the front does sit lower than the rear, but it doesn't look like it because there is 1/16 inch more fender gap up front than in the rear with a 1/2 tank of gas. I guess if i had a full tank it would be dead level if you measured the gap from the top of the wheel lip to the bottom of the fender lip.

I am very obsessive though and it took me about 20 adjustments to get the car sitting dead level and to get the fender gap looking perfect from front to rear. I am going to get it aligned tomorrow so I should be good to go.

Yeah your cops in CA are *****, I don't see how everyone puts up with it. Eh, well the cops here just kill innocent people and get away with, but nobody cares until it is them that is the victim.

Are you running 15mm spacers on the front and rear or just the rears? Can't quite tell with those pics.
