i just got done installing the new wheels and tires and was so excited to see everything clean and shiny that i went to the carwash and then drove around bradenton for an hour searching for a good spot to shoot... too bad my cheap digi-cam wasnt up to the task and out the 56 shots i took only about 3 are worthy to be posted up.

looks great chris! can't wait to see the car in person in a couple of weeks. my limited is in dire need of a very thorough cleaning, it's shameful.

damn, it says those springs drop you 2" in the front and 1.5" rear... seriously, how can the ride still be bearable? i'm looking for a drop in the range but im i also dont like back pain.... if you say they ride good i'll pick em up tonight.
is $240 a good price?

I would go with either prodrive or crucial
Had COBB on my old car, prodrives on this one, and ryans car has the crucials. Definitely both better than the COBBs, although they werent *bad*

very nice car, i saw it @ bmp today. btw nice times
those times were poo, lol... best i did was a 12.5. the one good launch i got i missed 3rd. thanks tho! these nitto 555's are just too damn sticky for the 1/4 i think i'll stick the stockers on for next time.
btw, did it end up getting rained out? i had just washed my car and the first drops i felt i peaced the fuck out!
were you in the all black SRT? if so i seen you too.

Those rims look sweet man, i have myself a set of 57fs on mine right now and i love them. I would recommend the perrin tunersport springs. Unless those are 18's like mine it will rub, but with 17's those springs laid down a sick stance.

Car looks great! Washed N Waxed lol
+1 on lowering it!
I see that you have a fmic but are you scoopless? Get a scoop and go wingless, I think that'll fit your wheels once you're lowered!
Can't wait to see her at the meet!

Eh, chris is funny about that... he whines about a scoop on a FMIC car being "non-functional". Personally, I like air moving over my motor to keep things cool, but that's just how I roll.

for lowering, you could also go with the TEIN S(crape)-techs.
