thats skills right there ahah, and BTW what kind of lug nuts are you using with the wheels? i heard somewhere if you use cone type lug nuts it would help fix the vibration.

thanks bro. I've always been a fan of your car. Retros aren't hard to do or that expensive. It should be cheap to just buy the projectors and the bracket from luxury mods.

if im not mistaken i think the acorn type are also the cone types. at what speeds do you feel the vibration? i might be picking up a set of the same wheels.
