Those wheels and tires are already spoken for...They will be gone as soon as the new wheels go on.

Excellent choice on the wheel! They should look amazing on the car. How long was the wait from Japan? I was thinking about getting some new SSR's.

Thanks! The wait was 3 months! Well worth the wait! My last set of Volk's took almost 5 months to arrive so the 3 month wait was not bad!

Nice, but the fronts are not aggresive enough.

I'm not into the "crazy camber VIP look" either. I too like clean and simple, but i think you could of went with a lower offset in the front.

Looks good though

Not yet since car is still at the body shop...Called my painter today and he said he was going to primer it tonight or tomorrow but he will have the car finished by this weekend...I hope he does!

I'll go by the shop tomorrow and check up on his progress! I've been off work the past 4 days so haven't had time to go check up on it.

So I went and checked up on the car this morning and it still has yet to be painted...my painter promised me that he would get the rest of the body work done and prepped for primer today. He has to finish all of the bodywork before he removes the windows and other trim. He said he work on it late tonight and maybe even primer it tonight then get it painted tomorrow or Thursday...so I don't think It will be done till early next week. Taking a lot longer that he first told me but he does amazing work and never rapes me on the price!

Here are some shots of how the car looked this morning.

give him the time to make it perfect , no good to push him on a job like this
that's what amazes me on car shows on discovery and such , they always have a time frame to work in and they rush the job at midnight totally exhausted

but i don't have to tell you that
the car would like perfect when it is done
