damn genx, that sucks. especially factoring the amount of work you put into the car the weeks prior to wf. pretty sure I saw pics of your car at the show and it seemed fine (unless you told everyone to "get your good side"). been stressed at work so maybe I just dont remember.
good to hear the wheels made it through the ordeal.

As soon as you drill some holes you will see water come out of it. I drilled 6 small holes in each. One hole will take a while for it to all clear up cause i started with 2. If you want a picture of mine i will take one today.
Yeah I know you didn't mean on the actual lens haha. But sure, pictures wouldn't hurt. I think ill have to do it tonight. The lens is covered in water.

Drunkness was probably a contributing factor.

I'm running Stance Gr+ true type w/ Swift springs 14K/8k and swear by it.
I'm pretty low riding on a 19x10.5+7 255/35 upfront and once in a while have rub a lil.
If I could do it again I would go with 16k
My rears Are stiff as hell though 10k may be pushing it
