Lol. I consider the airlift major but it's not installed just yet. And I still have to order my exhaust. Just a few little "looks" things for now haha.
I bet they don't give those away as party favors. :-)

Thank you. I'll be more pumped once I get these front tires replaced. The current 245/35's are throwing my AWD light. I thought I'd be ok as I'm at 3.1% different with the 275/35 rears, but nope. Actively looking for a set of 255/40's for the fronts. Car feels extremely different now with these wheels. Old wheels were 18" TSW's with 275/40's at all four corners. Steering feels MUCH lighter.
I bought them used so I saved a little bit. I still would love to trade these for a square set of R35 GTR 20x9.5's.

With AWD you want to be as close as possible, some say less than 1%. You'll need a 245/40 up front to match the 275/35 rears if you want to avoid throwing AWD/VDC lights.
Did you prime it or sand it, clear coat or anything? Or just cleaned it real good and used straight KH3 Paint? Thanks for the info
Sand. Clean. Degrease. 2coats adhesion promoter. 3coats primer. Sand. Clean. Wetsand. Clean. 3coats KH3 base. 3-4coats urethane clear. Need to give it a good polish to get rid of any orange peel. And then a nice sealant. Came out pretty nice but if I had to do it again, I would body color the Mt. Fuji logo. I'll be swapping out for the C-Mod mesh grille once I find time to prep and paint it!

That would be closer, but I eventually want to go to a 285/35 in the rear which is .4% different with the 255/40 fronts. The 275/35 rears are too stretched for my taste.
