Allright, you got your car all tricked out now, so don't break anything until after I come over for my BHR install.

Nice... definitely wish I could have had a proper setup with those wheels (especially the lack of rubbing) before I sold the 8. Glad that fixed your problem.

I've got my brakes to do and still have those speakers sitting around. Probably going to have to put off the speakers again since brakes are probably the more important thing to have.

Well, back in town with some new caliper brackets. I think I'm pretty much up for an install whenever the next free weekend comes around for others. Hopefully that will be the last delay for my brakes.

I also still have those speakers laying around. Been wanting to get those brakes done before that though. Once I get the split brackets off, I'll be getting a refund for the new ones and spending that money on replacing those fans... so maybe I'll think about the speakers after that unless someone wants to help knock those out sometime lol..
