I was thinking about a drop but as it is right now my tires do in fact rub. Not on the fenders, but the liner. Im actually running 285's in the back with no issues at all. I was trying to figure out what the hell was rubbing in the front but once i saw how close the wheels were to the liner it was pretty damn obvious. I'll look into that setup (smaller tires and some coilovers) later down the road i guess.

I guess my next mod will be some brakes for now. I do want to invest in a custom interior but that's gunna take some serious $.

That paint job looks amazing! I have a feeling you might have started a serious trend..

Definitely inspired - my car is black and it makes me hesitate to get the m-tec kit because with such dark paint it all bleeds together and not much detail is obvious. With silver - almost all detail is profound and visible.

Fantastic job
