Car looks great man. Thanks for sharing about the alignment place, but too bad its 2000 miles away.

thanks for the shop recommendation. I'll definitely bring my car there for an alignment. West end just costs way too much.

Wallpaper huh? Wow, I am very honored. My car isn't even up to the level to many of the cars on here. It is far from being a complete package.

Normal alignments run about 80 bucks I believe. I paid $150. I would be more if the front required height adjustment

Yes, I am content for the exterior for now. Cosmetically everything is coming along exactly like how envisioned it.

The only things that I could wish for are Endless BBKs and removing the spacers and re-lipping the wheels with bigger lips. Neither of that is going to happen any time soon though.

Some pictures from the Irvine meet with its new stance.

Looks good, looks like you had a little trouble getting up that ramp. The underside of the front bumper shows that evidence.

Nah my scrapes are pre-existing

There are wood ramps leading up to the alignment rack to even the lowest of the low could make it up there
