Color matched perfectly, in about a week or 2 I'll wet sand and polish the clear coat to make it as smooth as a baby's butt cheek LOL
Hey bmurray--howd it turn out w rain? I was ups at I didn't get to make it. already had plans this weekend at lake which rained also. So sucked here. Rather be at a car deal.
My new brake setup... just finished two hours before heading to airport to go back to work. DBA t2, Stoptech pads, Motul Fluid flush, and Stainless lines. Also put on a Stillen High Flow Intake
Pairing them with bilsteins. They are the spec-r track springs, 7.5 front 8.2 rear. I was told the bilsteins are valved well to match these spring rates by a swift engineer but I can obviously get them revalved if necessary.
Installed three out of my four Tanabe springs. the rears were easy. The fronts...not so much. Taking it to a shop to install the other front spring when they do the alignment tomorrow. It was a b**** and took three hours just to do the front rights. Hoping they don't rape me in prices. They quoted me at 220 to install all four and install the rear camber kit so I'm hoping it's at least 1/4 of that ($55) plus the alignment ($77). We'll see.

I would have went a little higher. 10 f 12 r. The stock Nismo springs are 8 f 12 r. It felt perfect. Didn't feel stiff at all. Just too high and a lot of wheel gap.
