Looks sick, i think it will look real good with the coilovers and lowered. On 2 (rear?) i personally think there is just a little too much rim lip on there, that and you could fit some wider tires aka more grip too. But nonetheless looks good. But please before you slam it to the ground with the coilovers. . . remove the small children from your inner fender wells i wouldnt want them to get hurt. lol jk keep the pix comin

haha ya i had to wait awhile to get these bad boys. i think these ones are the new FN01R-C's there called the hot edition or some bs. i think the only difference is that "FN01R-C" is engraved in the metal and the center caps

1: put your front tires in the rear
2: get 225/35/17 for fronts
3: slam it on coils

Looks nice but you could use some caliper paint.

Actually, that's one of the things that I'm going to be doing next.. In your experience, how hard was it to strip the calipers down and get it all painted? From what I see it looks pretty simple.
