Currently in doing my homework on my next step. New rims, tires, and coilovers. Im pretty sure im going to buy some Volks but im not sure if thier going to be 19' or 20's. As far as offsets go im looking for an aggressive stance. My big issue is looking good but at the same time not sacrificing a drop of handling and performance. Ive been in too many rides that looked great but handled horrible because of the aftermarket rims. If anybody has any input that would be great!
PS: Thanx Hector for all the time and work we put into this car!

thats my problem lol....i dont have my car here so i see pics and im like that would look cool, thats how i decided on the clear corners, still debating on the data replica R-Spec grill, and serously leaning towards it just dont know if i should get the painted or unpainted. right now im a t 4 brand new yoko s drives, z tube, pop charger, spacer, clear corners, if i get the grill ill be up to around 1800 dollars total....all items i will be ordering around the 2nd week of may so i can assure its waiting for me when i get home from afghanistan.

Thanx everybody for your input...
BloodLineG: I did most of the prep work with the exception of sanding ( theres something about sanding CF fenders that didnt agree with me) The shop quoted me about 1800 for just the sand and paint which would have been reasonable BEFORE the economy went to ****! So i ended up droping about 1050 for everything.
Goblin: Not sure where tower shop is but PM me with the details ill be happy to swing by.
Jibberjabbers: No its surely isnt your cup of tea.. actually its not even a cup! But good look finding it.
jLoO109: That exactly what i dont want. Theres a thin line between a nice ride and a horrible drive. Just gotta do my homework.

Yeah it was a hard decision to paint the fenders but after sitting over a sketchpad trying to come up with a nice clean scheme i wasnt able to produce anything i was happy with.... so they were painted.
As for just leaving the CF i tought about it but from far the car looked like pieces put together and it just didnt flow. The fenders were mainly to give me some more width so i can slap on some VERY aggressive wheels. I wouldnt recommend the fenders to anyone.... fitment was a pain and i think they needed more modding than any of the other peices.
