I was Just wandering how wide your wheels are. The JDM heads look good.

i got ya bro ^^^


well on to the headlights i got them on but the fitment is off some how it seens like they are usdm spec haeds insted of jdm but they mount up like jdms do ? IDK.
well them shitz is on and im tired of messing with them they dont look to bad i need to go get load equalizers for my swithbacks and wire them up in the am.

Looks like the headlight needs to be adjusted, not the signal. I'd look back into the position of the main headlight housing. I'd be willing to bet it isn't sitting properly somewhere.

Oh, and 2 piece headlights FTW!

i looked put on, cut, looked took off, cut, put back on, cut, put back on agin screwed every thing back together then the dam grille wouldnt fit so i started over and pulled everything from left to right till it fitted

"well on to the headlights i got them on but the fitment is off some how "

worrying about the lines likeuh crack head hot rodder 00D

i feel the same somtimes, except iv been black and gold pfftw

[OMEGA PHX]

what do you mean when you say "fitment is off"? Gaps or the lines not aligning? Juat making sure you know that the lines on the headlight aren't supposed to line up with the lines of the hood. They look like they fit right from the pics.

IDK it could be just me but they look good. How are they off?

[unclepaulie]

on those two peice headlights, the indicator/headlight gap doesnt line up the the bonnet/fender gap.


its weird

eg:




but that said, looks great mate. keep up the good work ;)

Yep thats what I meant but didn't have the pic, its weird since in many different cars it does align but not on the 8G's/G8's

what rubber are u running fronts and rear, nice wheels by the way

[Fresh_617]

hey i kno this is random but whats your trunk lookin like?

[ricky_db]

what rubber are u running fronts and rear, nice wheels by the way

im running 215 35 r19s up front and 225 35 19s in the rear

hey i kno this is random but whats your trunk lookin like?

man my trunk is all kinds of messed up at this point i had it all planned out to get a pancake tank and put in the spare well so i did that and then its like all of the dam road grimlins popped up and kept giving me flat tires and since i hae towing serice i thought it was no biggy but i didnt know at the time i only had a 15 mile coverage so imagine my surprise when i was 30 miles away from home and had to pay 5 bucks a mile after a long night of drinking and parting.

ile post a pic in the am but its not pretty at all i have the system the air ride a full sized jack and spare back there lol.


my interior has stayed the same i just need to order a second set of "show" floor mats because the checkered ones are only meant for show i guess because i have wore a hole in them where my clutch petal is lol

it is hard as fu#k daily driving this car
so far i have curb checked one of the rims
dented my hood up more just trying to open and close it so much
and replased a clutch (by myself with 3 jacks lol )

but on the bright side i hae learned by trial and error how to MIG weld
so my trunk should look just as good as my interior once i figure where i want to go with it. my main issue is my massive speaker box i built for my 15 its 3.2 cubes tuned to 30 hz im thinking about making a fiberglass beck for 4 15s that way i would still have my music trunk space and maybe do a couple of hair tricks

[Predat-R]

now with the 4 15'' subs are u concerned about all that added weight in the rear? ......... Where did u get ur wheels cause i seen the same ones at jdmautohouse

[Corey2kG]

Damn Ricky! I haven't seen this thread since I bought your heads. Hope you don't mind but I'm just gonna put this here so you can see how they came out on mine n thanks again bro.
