Very nice. I've always fancied those DPE wheels. You kept it fancy, yet sporty. Great job!

when my mechanic put the exhaust on, i asked him to doa cut out in the bottom bumper for the oval tip i have, but when he was finished his welding guy was closed so he left the tip where it was (which was about 2 inch before the bumper and cutout he made and said it would be ok like that. But, when i got it home i noticed the bumper looked different than before, the exhaust fumes had melted the rest of the balck lower bumer and started melting the rest of it directly above. He then moved the pipe around so it wouldn't continue to burn and tha'ts where it's stayed. Trying to get a new rear bumper now to replace it.

Hot lookin car man. If you want to remedy the exhaust melting, get an insulated/resonated stainless tip. It'll sheild the outside from the heat and prevent it from melting the bumper. Although I've never seen such bad melting of the bumper before. My Remus muffler tips are almost touching my bumper with cutout, and no melting nor maring of the painted lower.

How are you enjoying the TT/Borla setup? I thought it was a bit loud at first, but I've grown to love it.

Nice work man. Your car has come a long way in not-so-long a time. Keep up the good work! What's next?

It almost looks like your back tires are too small for the wheels? The side walls look bowed out to meet the rim or is that just me? Nice ride tho all the same!! Damn sweet.

thanks everyone. Yeah i know what you mean about the rear tires. But I suspect any wider tire would cause rubbing. The tire size is correct for the wheel 265/30 on a 19x10 wheel but it just looks a little streched out but I kinda like that look. :thumbup:

James ran a 275 out back when he had the 10s w/o any rubbing, but the stretched look is more euro anyway :thumbup:
