Adding Traction control switch to the OP. This is the mod the previous owner lobuzz was talking about doing right before he sold it, so I may as well finally complete it.

I also bought my fender/quarter panel cutter but I'll need to borrow a higher RPM drill. The over fenders I have will only be temporary, as I plan to add more modern looking ones or molded ones in the future. My original goal was to get this up and running for a car show on the 14th, I MAY just make it. *edit* going with lower profile tires.

Did you get a chance to drive on the tires yet and break them in? I'm curious on your feedback due to your wide width.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I ran out of money, thus I ran out of motivation. Guess getting a lot of time with the car this summer is looking some what grim lol. I finally did get around to cutting the fenders. No flares on yet, that will be next. Or I'll just wait until I can get molded ones.

Nice to see the update on this, have you sourced any particular flares that you want to go with? are oyu going to colour match them to the car or go carbon fiber to match the front?

For now I'm just rocking the cheap ebay pairs that look pretty meh. I will eventually be getting some real deal metal ones molded into the car. Anyway, did the other side today plus drove it for the first time on the street in a year (around the block). Brakes work

Against all odds I managed to install these side skirts (well side one). Just gotta get a screw in that front hole and I'm done and it will loook more flush up front.

Are the side skirts from Seibon? Do they come down lower or the same dimensions are the stock?

I don't think they are. Some random ebay vendor, and I saw no evidence anywhere they were Seibon. These appear to be stock fitment.

Anyway, I got the other side done today too, and I cleaned her up.

I think I'll have to trim the rear fenders some more. I took it out on a test drive and the tires got a little scrapped up. I'm thinking I may just do some grinding down instead of cutting. Man this thing is pretty rippy despite not many power mods.
