What size are your RPF1's?
Maybe it's the angle of the photo but they don't seem to stick out much in the front.
How much camber are you running?

If u can find a dirt cheap stock one by all means just do that, but if u can find a good deal on a quality used one, theres no point in wasting time with stock unless u plan on selling IMO.
Yes i got a secondhand one for cheap,about six times cheaper than what Mitsubishi here is asking,so i couldn't leave it.It's looking tops now,i sanded it down and sprayed it silver.

I got mine sideways on the freeway on ramp this morning because some little egg looking car thought it was cool to cut in front of me. I had to cut left then back right because it was a right sweeping 3 lane on ramp and I lost the rear and almost pooped myself. Although afterwards I felt pretty cool and it must have been a show for the cars behind me. Then when I was about to get road rage the egg went and hid behind a 18 wheeler and drove real slow.

There is a stereotype that the BMW drivers are the jerk drivers but honestly, I don't see it. It's usually a crappy car or minivan that cuts me off or is doing 45 in a 65 zone.

Lost one of my keys in the snowstorm in green bay friday night. Now have to drive halfway across the state to have a new one coded to the car.

Me and my friend we going to meet some friends last and got called in for street racing...we never went over the speed limit nor did we do any aggressive driving.
I just love the people in my town, where everyone goes 5-10 mph under, and thinks two nice cars going the speed limit is racing.

Picked up trunk lid. Put it back on. Put front calipers back on. Gotta find something to cover up holes on trunk now.
