Whiteout Project Underway-Five Axis Kit Cusco Susp with TSW Wheels
My order arrived quickly from Vivid Racing...Much Thanks to Michael...a real stand up dude and great customer service....Cusco Suspension just went to the shop at FRP to have a special paint process...powder coating is a no-go on pressurized shocks so we went with a non-cracking TRD red paint for the coils and a color matched matte bronze color for the coilovers and badging...I got that from the TSW nurburgring wheels I have on order...they should be here by tomorrow or the next day...more pics to follow but here is the badging that FRP customs in Redding Ca had worked up

Man that's my only complaint about white, it creates so much contrast you lose the details in the photo. The whites get overblown and the blacks get SUPER dark. Then you can't make out much of the details.
Did you set the coil overs at stock height? The car still looks like it's stock ride height. Did you get the coil overs corner balanced yet? Can you also add the wheel/tire sizes so Darren can document this in the wheel directory? |

What size/offset are the wheels? And are they bronze or matt black?
