    looks pretty good so far. im not much of a fan of the roof spoiler though. looks awkward to me. whyd you choose KSport coilovers if this is going to be tracked? imo, PIC, Koni/GC, or even Tein Basics are much better for some track duty.

    Ksports are temporary for now. I use to run Skunk2 sleeve coilovers with KYB GR2's (horrible) and I ended up blowing 2 struts, so it was just ridiculous to DD them. I didnt have the money to fork out for some Teins (which I probably will soon enough) but these will do for now.

    4 of my friends rock these including me, and to tell the truth, they're not bad at all. But we'll see. If I blow some seals the first time I hit the track, well, I guess thats what I payed for.

    Bushings, yes. I have ES rear trailing arm bushings, shifter stabilizer bushings, front control arm bushings, and front and rear sway bar bushings. But thats about it for now, I will upgrade most of them as I finish the car.

    And thanks andre haha

    Not a big fan of the front bumper. But everything else is clean.

    The bumper needs a few more coats of silver, its looking a little darkish/gray rather than VSM..and it does sag in places, but that will be fixed here soon. Promise! haha

    I just wasnt feeling the 15's anymore. I did like the silver on white no doubt, but I wanted 16's, and I got these for a steal. So had to try them out :)
