i had rolled my rear fenders because my 225 50 17 were rubbing. so how on earth can 245 40 17 gonna fit? also i have enkeis rsv 17x7 so 245 would be bulging out so i know i need to get wider rims. i have a offset of 42 do i need to go lower to like 35?

She looks better than ever Exhaust power!

Took care of the peeling paint on my hood by plasti dipping it, it's just going to stay like this until it gets a full paint job:

That is really nice, I need to redo my plasti dipped rims

**JDyal** · 10-22-2012, 11:48 PM

So I plasti dipped the grill black and I know it needs to be redone but this is a temp fix

This is me chillin at school lol

And this is with the grill and white plasti dipped rims. Not diggin the white like I did with the last rims, but I'm gonna try to paint the emblem black and put on black lugs to see if that makes it pop more

Damn you jumped on that bandwagon too.

**greddy** · 10-22-2012, 11:56 PM

it makes me sad seeing plastidip on all these cars, I used it on a 625 dollar track beater miata and that would be the only car I'd feel comfortable doing it on.

I was thinking about it for awhile cause I didn't want to paint it knowing that the whole car was going to be repainted, plus I haven't posted a recent pic of the G.

your tires, are too, TALL, that is why they rub. plus you probably don't have much if any negative camber. I run a 245/40/18 on a 18x9 +30 wheel and it fits. it's all about camber and fender work and the proper size tire.

Yea, but I would rather have it like that than like this:

Feel like making a topmount cause i'm bored and want to switch it up. Well see the car should be back out this summer hoping for mid 10's with the current set up.

Honestly, I didn't think about that, time to look for some vinyl.

**Rach3T8G** · 10-24-2012, 12:00 AM

That's What i'm going to do since everyone is using plasti-dip now

**mrg7243** · 10-24-2012, 12:32 AM

Plus longer lasting, it doesnt have the spray lines, easier to clean.

**bigg fella** · 10-25-2012, 02:44 PM

All this nice stuff going on, I feel unworthy lol. Anyway, I just did a little aesthetic touches lightwise. Blue LED's in the dash, shifter, and dome light. LED third brake light and reverse lights. 8K HID's in the headlights and 3k bulbs in the fogs. Gonna do the turns and brake lights in LED next, just have to order the error cancel diodes
