Just curious when the fan came clean of the hub, did it make some noise? I would like to think that would sound pretty damn loud. I think your just trying to beat Ken blocks world record jump with an automobile and your just not telling us.

Is it a CF clone of the stock spoiler, or does it have a different shape? Some of the pics look like an OEM clone and others it looks like it has a more aggressive angle.

clone no..its looks like a duckbill spoiler you can get for the eg hatchbacks.....it doesn't go over the sides of the rear window like the stock one did, and it has an incline where the stock went down a bit. i'll get some better shots tomorrow and post'em up.

lmao! right right....now you say something.....waaaaa

they are drag dr 41's. 16x7+40.....195/50R16 falken 512's. fenders.....well, the fenders are so thin, i rolled them, but it didn't do what i wanted it to do. it more or less "flared" the fenders out, and left the lip intact....not bent or anything. i couldn't put alot of pressure on the fender roller cuz if i put more than i had, it would have either 1. cracked the paint even with heat or 2. bent my fender to shit, and may have caused a fender to be wrecked when i open my front door. so, the plan is to hammer the fender instead of rolling it. i'll post pics of this. i have a plan, so no need to " careful of your paint" and all that. lol.

now...onto the next thing...i need rear wheel spacers...my front wheels are out farther than the rear, and that just looks dumb....so, can anyone point me in the direction of rear wheel spacers, and how they work?

I saw there was activity on your thread and my first thought was "oh I bet he got wheels! I wonder which ones!?" lol they look good man. and I need to do the rear wiper mod too

for spacers, from what ive read, most people dont recommend running any more than 5-10 mm spacers on stock studs. So you can either get longer studs(which supposedly isnt hard to do) or you can buy adapters like these , so you dont have to worry about stud length. I think 15-20mm spacing would put the rears to about flush with the fenders with our wheels.

edit: say "our" because our wheels are identical in width, offset, etc., and ive looked into it and taken some measurements
