    Looks good, but I liked the evo 3 wheels better. The spokes on brand of LM replicas never looked right to me.

      Thanks for all of the positive comments guys. I still have the EVO 3 wheels and will likely change back to them for driving schools and such. The wheels are 20mm offset 18x8 front with 225/35/18 and 18x9 rear with 235/35/18. They are BBS LM replica's called ALT Tangent obtained from ebay. If I get an opportunity for some real LM's with correct offset, I'd jump on that. When I get the new springs I'll post up some better pics.

        Solid car.

        I suspect a polarizer filter was used in the original set of pictures. No?

                  Got mine from eurowheelsusa. I think they are the same though. I really do want to paint them, but I want to paint them black. I have nogaro centers on my Evo3 wheels. How did you paint them? How many coats and what type of paint?

                  Thanks

                    I usually hate weave wheels, but I like those on your car.

                      Got some new seats in the car. Original Recaro SR's recovered from an E30 M3 Sport Evo. The guy did a great job recovering them.



                      Also put the sport Evo wheels back on for now.



                      My photography skills suck, but I like the background.

                            Did you have the seats done locally here in San Diego?

                            EDIT: BTW, my new condo is about 1/2 mile up the hill from USD. You live nearby?

                              No the seats were done in Germany. I got in on a group buy posted on S14.net. The guy had 10 sets he was recovering. AFAIK there are two other guys from San Diego that got in on the group buy. I can't say it enough, the guy did a top notch job.

                              That's not a bad area to live in, plenty of nice looking catholic school girls around. No I don't live near there anymore, I used to live off of Clairemont Drive but now I live in lemon grove.
