    This afternoon!

    Took my front bumper off today, gonna give it a cheap quick rattle can respray for SoWo because I always ***** how it was like 6 different colors. I figure one uniform close to matching color is better.

    Got my tires mounted today. A little bit of paint got chipped off so I had to spray a bit of extra paint to cover up those marks.

    Painted my center caps too.






    Also got word that my adapters shipped today! Those are supposed to be here Friday! Just gotta do rear brakes, an oil change and mount my wheels and roll some fenders. Then it's off to SoWo!

    Some of the wheels just weren't smooth enough really. Probably nothing I can do now since thats all in the filler beneath...

    Took some pictures today using the natural sunlight. The color is more accurately represented in these pictures.

    Ehh, volans are nice, but not wide enough for me. Anything less than 8" is just too hard to get wide with even a tiny bit of stretch.

    These should look pretty good, I'll keep the Neptunes for rainy days.

    Bought softer springs and put those in the rear. Ride is a ton better! I also made some upper perches to hold the spring in place.

    The perches were made in the Czech Republic so I had to modify them a little bit.













    Also primered my wheels



    And the laid down some paint

    Yeah. Togue Factory is selling a bunch of springs on eBay but one of the perks of being so close to them is going to buy them in person.

    I presume you're referring to the springs? I got them from Togue Factory who builds all of the "Stance" coilovers. $40 I couldn't complain. Had a friend pick them up when he went to buy tires for his Miata.
