    thanks man, while I was gone back in 2011 it was sure nice seeing my buddies stepping up and throwing on the stuff that I ordered.

    (by the way most of this thread was copied from CR.net)


    but that was all the suspension, radiator, stuff not the engine and etc

    Picked my wheels up from DJ Powdercoating in Kernersville, NC (about an hour thirty from Charlotte) and God damn they did a great job. $55 a wheel and cleaned up a lot of the imperfections in the wheel...less talk more pics

    Color is Pearl Gold. It's great, dark in shade and bright in the sun.

    Ah and I will be adding 3" lips to the wheels, so all the wheels will be 15 x 9 +1 offset

    Well I'm sure some of you figured out what was happening when those tires got mounted...so yes I've jumped on the Flares bandwagon and got them.

    Couldn't be happier, got my alignment today and the car has never felt better.

    The whole stretched tire, low stuff was fun, but I am really enjoying how the car responds and feels.

    I can't wait until Spring to try out some autocross and track days.

    Less talk and here's the picture. I'll have more in the next days after Cars & Coffee on Saturday Morning (Hope to see some charlotte area dudes there)




    Autokonexion Version 1 Flares
    Added some rubber trim to the flares and really happy with the turn out
