Thanks! IMO I think these wheels are a little....over-done. These were the only decent 5 lug wheels that I had at my house at the time. I was going to put a set of Bullits on it, but decided to have a set of Tri-bars powdercoated black with a polished lip. So those will be on there in a week or so. More pictures in about 20 min just washed it!

Nice!!!
I definitely want to see pics of the tri-bars painted with polished lips. Sounds pretty cool!

I love it! Now it looks tough. :twisted: It's nice to see a notchback without a big, gigantic wing on the trunk. Very plain and tasteful. Those wouldn't be your burnout marks would they? :lol: Any plans to lower the front end? If I remember correctly, didn't you ask about lowering recently?

Well, a few of them are mine. I plan on installing 4 cylinder front springs to lower it back down i dont like the way these eibach drag launches sit.
