Thank you sir.
It was featured and cover car for October 2008
I'm actually selling it finally
I'm getting the first car that comes in to the la dealership
Top build a new SEMA car
In TRIPLE YELLOW, of course

I figured I'd update this thread. Rims and tires arrived! Even more gorgeous in person. Also, having 20" rims and 305 tires in the middle of the living room makes it look HUGE. Lol. I made my son show how it's wider than his body 
I'll try to mount these this weekend just for a photo op, then remove.

^ thankfully it was an optical illusion
Pardon the messy garage, and the in-garage pics. It was snowing and crappy out, so I didn't want to back her out onto the driveway. Also, in the winter, I'm just not in the mood to clean in amidst the cold, and all the salt/mud/crud the daily driver cars bring in. I hate winter.
Overall, I love the setup I chose. Am very happy. Wish I could drive her instead of waiting 4 more months.
It makes the stock brembos look not that appealing…
Let's start with the finished product
Series of close up of rears, to show stance and fit… love it.
Now the fronts… including stance, and how they clear the brembos
Then I took a shot with the flash… I liked the dark theme…

Zto5 that looks awesome.
Somebody should have started a over/under thread on how long "I don't want to flatspot the soft rubber" was going to last.
I know I would not have been able to hold out this long.

As for the rims/tires, I already removed them and they are back to stock brembos for another 4 months until spring is here and the roads are clear... *sigh*.

Ok who am I kidding... It SUCKS!!!
No plans to paint brembos. I like them subdued gray. You got a brembo kit for yours? Very nice!

Gonna look sexy when spring rolls around! Are you planning on sealing the rims? I plan on doing Opti-Seal then a coat of Collinite #845. Should make cleaning easier. I am also putting on near Slotted/drilled rotors with ceramic pads as well.
