Be careful on what kind of spacers that you'll use. Make sure you'll use the spacers that have the hub center rings that have the inner diameter fit tightly on the stock spindle and the outer diameter fit tightly inside the rim. You may need the longer wheel studs if you don't run at least 3/4" spacers. The 3/4" or thicker spacers can be had with the studs on them. The cheap kind without the center bore ring will be the disaster. The result of these cheap kind is the vibration due to not being centered and the broken wheel studs. P.S. Your car isn't complete without the M90 supercharger sitting under the hood...LOL.

I will be running full H&R Spacers. I don't do thinks cheaply
Supercharger or turbo setup will happen. Probably when I own the car about 3 months

I hate having wipers on my cars. All of them, I removed them. But given the LS is the beater, thought need to keep them, if I need to use them sometime (especially with my trip to Chicago/St Louis coming up).
So adjusted the wiper down with a battery puller so that it almost looks like there is no wiper. special thanks to Mike
Makes the car look a lot cleaner.

Dont all Ls's come with the hidden wipers? on my ls they are hidden and on my dads 03 they are as well. maybe your previous owner pulled them up or something, looks much better anyway.

If you lower them to the absolutely lowest point (where they are touching the bottom rubber of the windshield frame), that is when they are absolutely hidden
Thanks for the compliments.
