Did a bunch of loose end stuff Saturday. Adjusted my exhaust so it would stop hitting the car, worked like a charm. I was seriously starting to go insane from the tapping and vibrations! But that's all gone now, and the car actually sounds quieter from the inside haha. Then I adjusted the rear height again trying to get less wheel gap. After that I pulled in the front bumper pieces to line up with the flares better and changed out the non fouler head to one with a slightly bigger opening in hopes to prevent the too lean CEL from coming back.


I also installed these punny stickers for my BB fans.


Now just waiting for my front wheels :|

Lol I think you should just keep the stock wheels up front, no need to swap jk

Looks like your at the home stretch!

I guess 265/35 Federal RSRs are on back order with an unknown ETA and have been since Feb so rather than run mixed matched tires, because I'm way too anal for that, I have bumped up my tire choice to Bridgestone Potenza RE-11. Will be picking the rear setup this Saturday as well as a few other goodies. Stay tuned.

Wait.... Does that say 18x10.5 and 5x100??? I thought 5x100 did not exist in 18x10.5.

They don't. A100 is the adapter, you're talking PCD which is 114.3

Ahh so your running 114 to 100 converters. How safe are those really to run? 100 wheel options are Soo limited.

With the front grill taken out, if I don't touch my wheel liner, would I be able to see through to the ground? Like you can in yours?

That's correct, it would just be all black. Mine was actually worse at first but I cut the "feet" off the liners and remounted them. Once I get my beefy wide wheels up front, I shouldn't be able to see through anymore I hope haha. Keep in mind the crash bar will show though, so you either have to remove it, chop it or buy an alternative like beat rush.

Thanks! It's one of those things that people don't always notice but when they do, it's great. haha

Are you going to keep the kit unpainted, I love the way it looks on an asphalt car. And its different from all the other rocket bunny kits out there.
