              I ordered drop hats for the front to get a little nicer stance.

                    Yeah it'll def look better, As for handling I'm not sure. I really liek this set up now. I was up in the canyons and it felt really nuetral. The m42 lacks power but at the same time it makes it a blast on tight roads.

                      Good start, with drop hats it will look that much better. I like the new ESM wheel design. Seats are very nice as well, would love a set.

                          I like those front seats a lot. Looks like the paint needs a good buffing.

                            Thanks they are for sale!

                            Paint is pretty burned yes, most of the clear is burnt off but I'm planning to sand the whole car flat.
