Hey bros, so bit of a bad update today. Got the wheels on but had to put take them back off because the backs sat very low and close to the fender and there was worry that if I hit a bump it could smack the rears and crack the fenders. I was really hoping I could get away with springs still but looks like I'll be needing coilovers.

Car goes to boostin on Monday to get a clutch and trans build\rebuild and a few other minor things, then it'll go back to the body shop to get the wheels put back on and dialed into the coilovers.

Thanks for all of the kind words by the way! Here is a sneak peak with the wheels.

That is a great looking set of Work wheels. I like the color choice. How is the blend of the bumper and panels compared to the car?

Hey Roger, everything is blended really well, to me it actually seems like it blends better than how it was when the bumper and fenders were stock. Especially under dim lighting, you can tell the stock paint almost doesn't match that great under dim lighting whereas now it matches really well. Car is back at the body shop to get the suspension tuned in and the new wheels set up and it will then be finished!

That's awesome man. Well the car looks really stout with the new combo. Can't wait to see it all done.

Hey Guys! I know it's been a bit of a long time. I've been busy however, just kind of forgot about the forums as everything is pretty much FB groups now. Anyway, car has been finished for quote some time now. Just thought I'd update you old forum friends on how it ended up turning out for me. Enjoy!
