lots of new toys

I haven't posted in a while...but I've got lots of new toys for my car installed recently and, naturally, a question. First off, I had my '91 nose (on an 88 car w/ 91 tails) repainted when I installed the mazdaspeed front lip (corksports mold of it actually) and some sideskirts a friend in tokyo imported for me. I replaced the FTP w/ the j-spec ones. They follow the exact lines of the stock car but flare the side out a tad and drop down nicely. I seam sealed them to the car and the mount all the way up to the rub-strips. Overall, a basic skirt but it makes a HUGE visual difference and blends very well with the M/S nose. Now I'm importing an ASR ducktail look wing that is reminicent of the IMSA Z's and RX-7's...only comes up about 4 inches or so as not to be a ricey wing...just stylish. I also threw in my corbeau forza's w 4 pt harnesses and had the entire car wheeled out. It was also time for the annual tuneup and inspection so when I had my brother order me plugs (he owns a shop and race team) I saw he got denso plugs for me since thats all he could get quickly. I had always used NGK and these densos looked very very different. I put them in and they work just fine, but I was wondering why the design is so different from plug to plug. The only complaint is that NGK plugs are labelled leading and trailing, these aren't which meant a lengthy phone call. My digital camera is on its way so no pics right now...I work for Olympus and we have to accomodate retailers before employees and my camera is on a large backorder.
