Clean car, I prefer a trunk over a hatch as well so that's a plus

It's always nice having more wheel choices.

Looks really clean man. I like hatch backs better tho. Mines a hatch tho so im a little biased. Lol i hope i spelled that right. Maybe i'll do the 5 lug conversion too. How long did it take you and how much $ wise?

Took a weekend. The drivers went faster than the passenger side cuz u learn a lot about how to do things. Having the right tools also helped a lot. Like ball joint press. I paid 800 for the complete kit from mps auto salvage. And had to spend a little extra on the ball joints, a couple new brake line pieces and fluids. It was all together under a grand though. Probably would have been easier if I pieced it together but Connecticut is not very auto savage friendly out her when it comes to wanting to pick your own parts.
