I do want a good set of 22's, but what I want ain't coming till like next spring maybe ... this spring is performance. these wheels will do till then & by then they'll probably become my winter wheels... I'm going to have to go through this summer with these, there not so bad to me really...

hey guys, thanks... I did my dual exhaust, stillen... haven't had a chance to install the headers yet, they do look like fun, maybe next week :P
I had some trouble with what should have been the simplest part of my headlights, which was painting the bezels... winded up not being satisfied & after painting them 3 times & not being happy with them I decided to just build another set of bezels, so the led lit projectors should be done as soon as I redo these headlight bezels, but...I also started to move onto my fog lights...
I had an idea of using a full headlight projector in each fog light, & then I had the idea of having them also be motorized to raise & lower them, just like the headlights, & then finally, I wanted them to match with the led aux lighting too. well memorial day weekend proved to be as good a time as any to do this, so I spent the weekend with my front bumper off & modifying the radiator support to make room for this, & I chopped up a new set of headlights... bottom line, it all fits & my fog lights will now be motorized up & down bi-zenons... I'm using a yellow lense & I'll use a 3k bulb for the yellow look....
now I can from inside the car turn them all the way down to where there just lighting 10-20' in front of the fx, to all the way up on "high beam", which is pretty cool to see... heres a few shots.... I should have them done & on the fx by the end of the week maybe...
first shot is what the gutted & cut down headlight assy looks like...
