Currect pics of my FC
Well, I just got done installing a few more pieces to my FC. Its now sporting a new set of wheels, Enkei RPM2s, 17x9 rear and 17x8 front, with 255/40 and 235/40 tires. Also now sitting on a set of JIC coilovers. Also, I have installed a Cusco 4-pt rollbar, and a lexan sunroof. Just rolled it out of the garage and decided to snap a few pics of my progress. Besided a new set of black doorpanels (which should be in this week..), the body and interior are complete. Now its just time to get her up and running 
So here are some pics, let me know what you think!
(Also check out the rotor valve-stem caps on the wheels.. theyre pretty cool
)

I got the dash cover off Ebay. I dont think Im going to drive the car with it on, as it looks a bit goofy. I forget what brand the seats are, its been a while since I bought them. The harnesses arent secured in the rear, but they will just wrap around, and tie to that horizontal bar behind the seats. I bought the cusco bar used from a forum member. It is actually a 6-pt bar ( you can see there are mounting point up front for bars that come up and mount to the floor under the dash) but it was for a RHD car and the bars didnt quite fit, so Im just using it as a 4-pt for now.

Damn, looks ******* sweet. What are your thoughts of 40 series tires on 17s? I have 45 series, and am thinking of dropping down to 40.
Car looks sweet man, keep up the good work.

But, these tires just about match the stock diameter, which is why I have them.

Everything looks great - I hope this is the last set of wheels 
They are a nice choice...the size fits the wells very nicely and the color is a great compliment for the satin finish of the spoiler/trim. One thing that has to go is that antenna...pick up a replacement power antenna @ any best buy/circuit city. They work well and aren't expensive. That license plate frame also doesn't work for me...dark accents work on this car/color and the polished piece looks wrong to me. Maybe try a gun-metal spray paint...it should be easy to get a professional finish on such a small piece.
How did the Cusco rollbar fit, any issues?

Im either going to get a replacement OEM power antenna, or just shave it off when the car gets repainted, and not care about it. My power one broke a while back, and that was a quick and easy fix. Also, there is still no engine in the car, just the new coilovers sit that low. And damn they feel stiff, I can about jump on the car and it doesnt even move. I may need to raise it up a hair when I start driving it.

They have a bunch of cool stuff, I got a keychain from there as well.
As for total spent on my car so far.. hehe I dont even want to think about it. I can think of over $10k just off the top of my head. Id say close to ~15k or so total so far, and that is with me doing 100% of the work. (beside my engine port/rebuild).
