Is your car painted VR or is it a custom red? In the first pic it looks like a different, darker shaded of red but in some of the other pics it looks VR. I really like the way the color looks in the first pic. Great looking car man.

Racing beat springs are awesome. I put mine on a few months ago along with some trailing arms. They are great. Lower the car about 1 1/4" in the rear and 3/4" in the front. Fit is great!
Your car looks awesome! I wish I had some better wheels...for now the stockers do the job
