The grille looks very nice! I plan on doing black grille chrome fuji as well. It'll tie in my black and chrome look more.

Finally put my Wheels on. Specs are

19 x 9.0 +35 R Disk
19 x 10.5 +42 A Disk
Work Emotion CR2P Step Lip, with Flat red center cap and work locks.
With a 10mm Z1 spacer upfront.













I also refinished my Ark Grip tips since I had a terrible experience at a hand washing shop.

If that were my car, I'd ditch the spacers in front.

I did both end links a few days ago. Today was both tie rod ends and inner tie rods. Also both upper strut mounts. (should get rid of that clunk sound) All moog.

Also swapped out my eibachs springs for tein s techs. I know i should have done coil overs, But i just replaced the struts a few months ago so...

I just don't know where to find these. Duraflex only makes it for coupes. Oneighty stopped making them. I'm worried to take it to some body shop that will do a bad job.
If you're looking for a Black Grille, I bought this one and it fits really well

RedlineGoods leather came in today for my steering wheel. Still waiting for the fabric contact cement to come in and I'll be slapping this baby in the car. Unfortunately Im still photographically challenged and will post pics once its done. Got several annoying hours of stitching ahead of me.

Lol couple hours! More like a few days if you want to make it fit perfectly.

This would be the 5th wheel I've done. I've gotten good lol. I did two for myself just to try different colours and fabrics, and two for other people. With about 7 hours per wheel, they've turned out perfect. (the ones for other people, I learned from my mistakes on my own)

I'd be afraid a girl with an eating disorder might get triggered by that frame and key my car or some other delinquent act.

Fitment looks great but from this angle looks like you done need the 10mm spacer as looks like a little poke. Was it to clear BBK or just sit flush?

To sit flush like. My previous setup which also was the same spec more or less in front looked very weird and very tucked into the fender, hated that look. Now it looks a lot more clean.

Also within due time I'm getting a BBK kit.
