Wow. Just... wow. Big pat on the back for you, Ryan. To be honest, I (like most people here) am brooding with jealousy right now. Car is great. Build up threads are the best! Congrats.
Lemme know what you set your camber to - hear up front a good target is 1.5 and rear is 1.25. I have a little inner wear on the rears after 30,000 miles - no bad.
I will let you know. Just made a 8am appointment tomorrow morning to set it up. After it gets done, will post some numbers. Granted some of my other cars are getting 500-2500 mile per tire and each tire cost 650$/per tire, the LS seems like a cheap beater
After the alignment tomorrow, thurs-fri car will get new brakes and full TB/waterpump/plugs/wires/hoodstruts/filter change. Then good as new

Hit Mike up for his billet grill - he was going to sell it at one time.
Trenz used to make one. They were bought and the new owner discontinued it. Maybe Luis at Carson can still source the JDM billet grille now. He tried to get me one however the supplier never confirmed the order. Maybe a Fabulous?
Definitely will meet up with you at Gooses Acres if you are around sept/oct. Will ask Mike if he wants to sell the grille, not sure. Thanks for the info.

Thanks Flat Four! Appreciate the kind words No jealousy, all love. Couldn't have done it so quickly without all the quick help and info from the board here
I used a blade to cut it, and then smoothed the part out with sand paper gently. No paint was needed (not sure where one would paint). I can take specific pics if you like.
COOL! and it sounds nice!
Could you take some pic on the work you done on the cut out?
$900 worth of parts showed up. All idler pulleys, belts, water pumps, brake pads, hood struts, wiper blades, spark plugs, air and oil filter, dist caps, rotors, wires. Blah blah
YEAH but you should have let us see your LOTUS not just the lower front of it. I am a LOTUS ELISE lover
