    I would totally buy your car but i despise that color. lol. hopefully you went back to the stock tails without the tint cause i never cared for the tinted tails on yours. but its your car do what you want but the drop looks good.

    I haven't cleaned up my spray job or the tires yet, so they just look very weird.

    I was so excited, I had to post them somewhere...

    lol, the color has definitely had to grow on me, but now I love it. The tail lights are stock now, just regular red ones. The GSP and reynolds po-po told me to change them, lol

    i just did the old flash card trick and never got any on the tires, but yea if you spend your time doing it it can come out alot better. plus i had the wheels off the car for a while so had plenty of time to do it, im assuming you were the one at silver dollar a couple fridays ago.

    Much better. You thought I was just being mean before but your taste has matured in one day (even if a Po-Pohad to tell you to change the lights) when the paint comes off the rubber fully it'll look great.

    Before that I'd have to get a camber kit so it wouldn't be eating expensive low pro tires, and I gotta save money for the camber kit first.

    I say you should strip the paint off of those rims. Look much better stock, or polished.

    I had them silver for a long time and didn't much care for it, and if I can get a set of polished GST rims for a decent price, I will.

    the drop is nice, but the wheels look like crap. have you never heard of at least masking tape?

    and as far as getting camber plates, i wouldnt really worry about it. i run 2* all the way around on mine and its fine. when you get your next alignment, which i suggest you do soon since you just lowered it, have them toe in your wheels like .2-.5* and it will be fine.
