I haven't updated in awhile. Got a set of rims of CL. XXR 006 17x7 +40 not what I wanted, but pretty much free, and look better than stock to me. Also replaced the stock radiator with a Aluminium Koyo rad after something freed the coolant from the stock one. Currently testing my home made catch can project, its going well. There is a thread about it in the engine section. Gutted the cat in the front pipe, beefed up the sound a bit. Over-all still in love with it!

This past weekend I put in about 8 hours wrenching on the car. Installed longer wheel studs so I could put 20mm spacers on. Also Installed rear camber bushing, and I think the car finally looks great, and I am happy. Here is the thread with pics of stud install http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=46773

I recently plastidipped the wheels, and the look x1000000 times better. I'm getting a rear seat delete done tomorrow as well.

How did you smoke your headlights? And does it affect visibility when driving at night?

I used this method:

except I used a chrome paint for the reflectors. It reduced high beam output but its still very functional.

I tried to see if you mentioned the side skirts in your thread. Are these those Bayson ones? Or a set of eBay ones? I'm curious!

Good choice, it really completes the bottom line of the car. The skirt area seems to be missing a little somethin' somethin'.
