Your wheel setup is the best I've seen.
Sportlines, XXR527 (18x8.75), Michelin (245/40/18),
Did you have to use any camber or anything else to have a smooth ride.

Thanks for the kind words @FRS_Sovereign. There's slight camber all around, I was way overdue for an alignment after the drop. The tire shop pointed out that I had really bad toe, my fault for slacking. He adjusted the toe and left a bit of camber to get things tuned up. I need to install my SPC camber bolts if I want it dialed in closer to 0 in the front. And I'll get LCAs in due time. The spring drop fits these wheels perfectly.

Great looking car! How did you do the Yellow on the Michelin logos on the tires?

By hand using these: http://amzn.com/B005UUQODW

Helps to dab on the paint rather than trying write out the letters.

I like the gold in the headlights and the tire marker to tie it in...very subtle and nice.

Hey where did you buy the black interior pieces including the passenger dash? Looks good would like to know or if I could buy the paint to do it myself.

I blacked out the interior myself using flat black Krylon spray paint for "plastics". Disassembled each piece and sanded lightly to remove any gloss finish (paint tends to stick better). I picked up a few cans from Home Depot, I've even seen them at Wal-Mart.
