It still has the stock springs. The only reason I haven't lowered it yet is because of the tires sticking out the side. They rub as is. I would have to do some serious fender rolling in order to lower it.

I love the tail lights. They're staying, but the headlights are going away for sure. I just want to keep the clear corners.

I didn't know that much about the correct back spacing when I bought those wheels. Needless to say, I found out quick that they were spaced the wrong way for my set up. It's mainly used for shorter rear housings. Mine has been shortened, but not enough for those wheels. Oh Well.

For all that is holy, the only thing you should change is the rear height and the headlights. THAT IS IT. Next time, just make your own opinion instead of letting your wife chime in. I saw another guy do the same thing on here, and the results would've been god awful.

Summary: Your car is hot sex. Changing the paint = gay.

Hey, I talked to Cervini's about this hood because I wanted one, and I am curious about it. Is it possible you could take a shot underneath it so I can see what it looks like with the vent openings? Are they thick enough to prevent being cracked easily and all that? I currently have a Cobra R SVO hood, but a hood really tells alot about the look of the car, so I've been looking around.

+ nice new pics. I wunt it.

Mine is a non vented hood. It doesn't have any vents that open to the under side. I can take a couple tonight if you still want a pic of it.
