Is the car on stock springs?

Curious, what size are your wheels and tires?

As of now, yes. Got a set of coil overs I'm gonna be putting on it. But I do like not having to stress about going over railroad crossings and the like!

Nice how your rear spoiler compliments your new front bumper panel. Car looks real good. Did you eliminate your stock pop up spoiler or does it work with your new one in place? Party on!

From your earlier pics, I thought it was black - great color!

Agree with Allen on the spoiler. I'm not usually fond of the trunk spoilers, but it looks great with the rest of the kit.

Yes but I replaced it with a carbonfiber one. It is still functional.

The wheels are 19"-8.5" front, 19"-10.5" rear
Tires: Falken FK 452 235/35R-19 front, 275/30R-19 rear. They are stretched in the rear. I like the look!

Not sure on the de-amber yet. Might later on or I might try and tint the amber out and see if I like that.

I wasn't myself until I saw the one Fiber Werks sells. It really looks better in person then in the pictures!!

Funny thing is, on the way back down I stopped at an old country store and I could have sworn the guy behind the counter told me to "squeal like a pig"! LOL!

Usually I like the smoked tail light, clear headlight look but in your situation I actually think the amber compliments the car really well. Looks really good with the blue and gold.
