not that bad really... if you are not standing right next to them it is hard to even tell if they are dusty (unless they are caked), and the finish is a very smooth surface so it is very easy to just wipe them off. When I change the pads it will make a difference too since hopefully there will be less dust than these stock pads.

You cant see the bolts/bracket at all unless you crawl under the car (as I was doing in the pics).

It's a DIY. Check the appropriate section and it will tell you how to do it.

This mod is pretty self-explanitory really... Just take the rear section of the bumper and attach it to the rear bumper support on the inside. It bends/folds easily. Look at my pics again, I tried to take pics of where/how I did it. Really simple actually and cleans up the rear of the car alot especially when running a single exhaust.

^^^ meh, really a pretty good tire in all honesty. Id rate them better than my old Toyo T1-Rs, and they had the sizes I wanted. Sidewalls arent as stiff as I wish they were but comparable or better than the soft sidewalls on the Toyos also. And if I end up going through them really fast I wont feel too guilty

Looks good man. All you need is some aero. I don't know about those Generals and license plate though.

Actually the front tires really are about as flush as can be with the fender - it is hard to take a pic because depening on the angle of the camera it makes it seem that the tires are either out further than they are or pushed in more than they are. I have a set of Cusco a-arms on the way to dial in some more neg. camber up front so it will look just like the back soon anyways.
