So.
My pass side was 3mm higher. I think this mod will help me around corners, Velcro on feet. Goggles ordered.

Appreciate the offer, kno, but your car, as much as I like it, wouldn't go well with my skin tone. Too close but not close enough. You know how you have to go to the opposite side of the color wheel to do a nice contrast to set off one's own skin tone...

The Clinique lady who did my colors told me that. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!!

But ya, got some stuff going on with the Niz now anyways, don't think you'd want it in the condition it's in right now. Wink wink....

My first choice was a sheet of aluminum but the local shop didn't have them and I was determine to get it done that day.

And its actually not heavy at all and the front piece of the belly pan is no longer on (the section that connects from the rad support to the bumper), so there really isn't much room for air pockets to build anymore

Yup, it's stock and going to stay that way. Of course, I said that before I got the wheels too....

But ya, the new tahrs at 275/35 are 0.28" taller than stock 265s; so if anything, the gap should be less. But, in any case, since my stock Niz can still outhandle and outrun my '03 on steroided-suspension, I really don't need to lower it any. Function before form.

Do you want to know why I got the new wheels though? Form over function.... the anthracite powder coated barrels almost exactly matches the gray aero trim on the cah. Hahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa.... hypocrite, yes?

C'mon Trav, surely you understand why I wear Ferragamos with my Armani suits....
