I'd define clean as no body kit, no ugly oversized rims, patches of random stickers, blotchy areas of intense orange paint, etc.
Are my wheels too big????

Nah, 17's are a good size for FC's. They look like 18's with the wheel design and the lowering. I bet RX-8 wheels would look huge on our cars.

I think your camera's broke. It can't take a picture that's not tilted.

I don't know of any Knoxville shops that will touch our cars. The nearest places are Morristown and Murfreesboro/Nashville.

Score, sounds like we'll have a good turnout then. I'll definitely be there. Ya know, I didn't even think about the filters. I still have a brand new inline one for my TII I need to put on. I know my fuel strainer in the tank needs replacing too but the access bolts to the pump are rusted in. No way am I gonna try to drill a fuel tank either, so I guess I need a new tank and pump.
