Stormtrooper look is really nice. I just ordered the black 5.0 badges for my 12.

It does ride much quieter to my surprise. Handles better with that wider tired on the back too, but I could still use another .5-1 inch drop, but don't want to risk any negative camber even though I already have the camber kit installed. Anyway, thanks for all the messages guys. Boss 302 splitter and light tinting begins tomorrow. Might get a new rear valence too.

Looks great man, im also digging the black spoiler, goes good with the white. I also went with the Eibach pro-kit springs and I kinda wish it was about .5" lower as well but it looks 100 times better than the stock ride height IMO.

Sick! Looks like a ghost that will rape your soul.

Brembos with gold calipers would look sick

Thanks for the great comments again guys. Does anyone have any experience with the hurst short-throw shifter from American Muscle? I think that will be my next minor upgrade. They say you get 37% less throw by using this.

I agree - the simple back and white look is very, very nice! (and this is coming from someone who had a white car and chose not to go that route)

I may drop it a bit more in the future. Thanks for looking! I'll try to get some better pictures on here when everything is complete with better light.

Note: Tires are Toyo Proxes 4 with 295/30 on rear and 255/35 on front. Enjoy!







Simply awesome dude, I love the white on black look.(stormtrooper) LOL

Here's mind with Steeda Ultralites.
