pretty sure i had my wheels way before you there old timer.... yeah mine are 18's. those bosch blades do pretty good it only rained like every day up here all summer so i have put them to the test.


what grill is that? and did you do it yourself? i need a grill in a bad way but i am not a big fan of the options or prices.

 

[sl0wthe0ry]

tsunami, time to remove those side moldings. updated shot with the CF hood.

i'm currently looking for a new grille right now, the Erebuni just doesn't fit right. and the hood needs to be re-aligned....still.

Installed the rear step pads...and finally changed out the floor mats to the summer mats.

It's an Auto Exe knock off. I went back to the stock grill since as the AE really needs paint to be right.
I considered 18's and do like the way they look, but for the 3-3.5lbs more apiece that they weigh I stayed w/17's. I wanted to see what a little unsprung weight savings would do for the car. Unfortunately, the Kumhos I'm running, are a littler heavier than the Falkens I was running, so the savings is only about 2.5lbs/corner. I was hpoing for more.
When did you get yours?

AND...... I'm not an OLD MAN!!! I'm an old fart. A curmudgeon. When I reach Senior Citizen age, and god forbid anyone that calls me that, that's when I'll be an old man. Got it, sonny? (lol2)

 

[tsunami]

lol at bbrich... i think saying the word curmudgeon pretty much makes you an old man regardless of age...

yeah side molding and all badging needs to go... that grill doesn't look good at all slow maybe its just the angle?

Yeah, I screwed up...the rain is back here...our month of summer is over
