Default Finally back in action! (Pics inside)

...So after washing it today, I can say I'm actually proud of my car once again. I wish I had a better camera honestly, but this POS Olympus will have to do until I get my turbo and BBK in later this month. Then (thanks to Arsh, [A.H]) we'll have some even better pictures, hopefully by early May. Until then, I leave you with the following:

I hope the paint shop is going to repaint the front to get it to match the rest of the car.

looks good otherwise.

The front actually matches perfectly, but when there's light directly on it, it looks a little bit different... It looked like that even with my OEM bumper, believe it or not.

Hey not my style, but at least you got your car back.

I would recommend some wheel spacers.

I was thinking 20mm rear, 15mm front. Yes?

And yeah, I know, a lot of people don't like the VS3 kit. It's a love it or hate it deal... frankly I LOVE IT.

If it cost 80$, maybe you should try custom make a badge. With first letter of your name? or something???

I could do "JS" instead of "VS" 'cause "JS" is my initials, haha. I'd honestly rather have a VS badge though, black w/ white text.

If only your VS1 is black I will take it.

Good luck with VS3 wing set up. It nice anyway !!!! But way too much for my taste. Even with out wing I got a lot of attentions from all ricers already.









Ps. That is not my car !!!!!

20mm in all corners and that would help you out IMO.

I think alot more pople would rock this kit if it was never in the F&F, but since it was in the movie there is a stigma attached to it.

Seriously, as long as you're happy, who cares what anyone else thinks.

I think 20mm in the front would cause rubbage. Offset is lower on the front than the rear, I believe I'm +25 (or +22? Not sure) and I know rear is +35.

HAESHIK, what offset are my front wheels? You sold them to me, you should know.

Also... the reason I went for the V3 kit was because of the movie, partially at least.

20mm in the rear and 10mm in front is about right.
