At first when I read the thread title, I wasn't sure how it would look. But those wheels look great, especially with the color of your car.

The DH's will make the car look very nice. I love the VH's more but they do not come in a 20.

Could you possibly put up a link/info to where you got the tanabe springs?

I would love to go with the tein but at that price I doubt it.

I know I used to use the Black Magic stuff in a can. Just spray liberally not soaking any particular spot, let it set and scrub on particularly dirty areas. Then take a water gun and spray softly, going back and forth making sure to not hit any areas with direct pressure. Then get a can of air and air spray the engine around electrical components.

It isnt hard at all.

super clean first-gen LS, especially for being in our snowbelt region! the IS rims are 17's right? i was looking for some oem 17's that might clear the genII LS front calipers, but later found out from the manufacturer that my 16's do fit the 95-00 LS.
