if you put some washers between the radio mounting bracket and the dash, it will push the radio out far enough to get the trim ring on. I think i used something like 3 or 4 per screw.

Good idea. I'll give it a shot.

Wash and wax since it's still just waiting to be tuned

finally got my car back from the tuner

She started making some kind of axle noise.

Dude, what size and offset are your RPF1s?
17x9 +22?? They look perfect, thats the best ride height IMO

Just got back from GridLife South/Road Atlanta. Car was so fast they made us start at the back of the pack to give the rest of the field a chance. Car was a beast, up until 33 pounds of boost @ 150mph, lifted the head and ballooned the radiator. LOL! Man what a time we had, you don't know what you're missing until you attend GridLife South.{thumbup}

Took it in to the dealership, got a free 27 point inspection and a car wash as well as they took care of some recalls!

Installed my 3rd new water pump in 30k miles.
