Haha I saw this post on my phone and I thought you were saying this about my car, and I thought you said steal monchie's swag. It's a shame your guys' SN's are so close haha. That was was previously on Battles ( to the change!!!), possibly before you did your setup? Not sure, just sayin'

Chad - Give me your trunk!

J - The fenders on my 8 aren't clean. I can do clean fenders these days no problem but unfortunately, the 8 didn't get such great treatment :/

How come you're side marker looks like it is a poor fit Tilt? Is that just the pic or does it actually sit all cockeye'd like that?

Didn't really have a chance to finish fitting them in the new bumper, pretty much tossed 'em in

It's nice to see corners tilt The car looks sick man.


Chad, it's so nice to see your wheels clean, it' really changes the look of your car seeing them clean. I would lose the front mud guards or do them in black. Looking good man.

I like the front mud guards, I am thinking of getting them. I just think it looks weird in red with his Lip.

The OEM sideskirts fit/look sooo well with them too; in my opinion it completely changes the look of the 8 in the best way..... Apart from a full clean body kit. (MS or INGS)

I have the X-men sides to go on in red, the lip on the trunk is getting painted and my bumper/lip combo will be a track setup as I am saving up for a Re-Amemiya AD Front Bumper W/ Fog Lights for next summer. I like the mud guards, they will look better with the sides on, the X-men ones are similar to mazda ones just a bit longer and they have a hole in them.
I love being low.
*Thanks for noticing the clean rims, I knew you would.

There will be some pictures up pretty soon of the old setup and new wheels.

I haven't heard anything about Formula D yet. Are you coming down to Houston for it?
