Looks like you're taking the criticism well.

In order for you to put some fat spacers on there, you'll probably have to roll your rear fenders, as the front come rolled from the factory...

thanks man for the website....tht looks like the way to go for the spacers. Also though, won't that affect the camber to be even greater though?

Yeah the criticism really doesnt bother me, cause honestly i love the way my car looks and havent meant one person that doesnt love the way the car looks, if their a "car lover" or not. I have actually had numerous people asking to get them the same type of wheel for their car. As for the vent in the front, usually people hardly notice that. But hey, like they say, "to each his own"....and..."HI HATERS!!!!".......nah just playing.

Anyhow i am def going to measure how tonight how much of a spacer i can place on my setup. Thanks for the website, err forgot who gave me the info, but thank you.

There's always room for improvement....!

I like your OB coupe and understand your need for a front license plate. The
more we mod our cars the greater the chances of getting pulled over. Wheels
look good with your r/b theme. Since you have that duct in the bumper
why not try to use it for a path to your intake? I don't understand why
anyone likes those Veilside winglets, they don't flow with the lines of your car
and look "Stuck on!" Any side out there would look better.... any! Visit a
muffler shop and have your exhaust tips extended so they match your rear
valance. Sorry for being soooo critical....
Gary

Overall I think your car looks good. I had the veilside kit on my car but afterwards I did not like the fack that the front lip sticks out so far. Also after a while in the FL weather the side wings do not stay flush against the side skirt with the 3M tape. The rims are nice and the spacing is good no matter what people say. The front license plate makes it look too cluttered and the vent only looks good on the Z.

Looks nice. IMO I probally would've left the vent out but to each his own. Car looks very aggressive though! Props!

Thanks for the idea of the extending of the muffler, i think that along with the wheelspacers are two ideas i can take from this. I can work on making the duct somehow route to my intake,,,,but it will be a b***h, being that the metal support is right behind that. Thanks for the info and feedback man.

thanks for the info and the input man...i really dont want to take the front plate off, since thats a ticket for sure...As for the spacing, i know it is what is recommended for the car, I am only going to go a little bit wider, since my last set was wider and buckled my front fender by the turing radius.
