Well then cool, at least I know there's interest. I'll get it up as soon as I get some time to. I'll be replacing the master/slave cylinder the same weekend so I'll be busy.

Nice, are you using the HD kit from ZSpeed? I'm looking into that too for the near future heard it's a solid difference.

Got mine from propartsUSA. Give them a call, they took care of me. It was cheaper than any other place I looked.

Got my car back. The rear fender well will look better next yr when I get some bigger rear tires (most likely 285/40/18 instead of my 265/35/18s). For the foreseeable future, this is how it's going to look. Dropped 1" in the front and 1.25" in the rear on tanabe GF210's and SPC rear camber kit. Before and after pics.

Something matte, but we'll see how it looks once it's done.

Doing it myself, I'll definitely make sure I take care of it.

Definitely lots of pictures. Last review I did for brakes seemed to go over well so I'll do something like that.

I had wanted orange at first but the vinyl orange isn't as nice in person as I had seen in pics. It's too pumpkin skin colored.

I talked to my brother about possibly wrapping my car. He thinks he could do it. I'd probably have him wrap mine in matte blue like the BenSopra GTR.

The BSP GTR in uneditted pics is more of a lighter shade of metallic blue, similar to the 3m 1080 matte metallic blue. Not the color I chose, what I hate about vinyl, it never looks how they show it in pics. Most companies edit the colors so it looks more vibrant online.



Here is Empiredude's 3m blue similar to the BSP GTR. This color has gotten quite common here in SoCal.
