    few pics of my 88 sedan

    i don't post here too often but i snapped these with my new canon digi rebel today and thought i'd share, nothing too fancy but it's an ongoing project. plastic bumpers are sitting in the garage, just need the hardware for them, also it needs new front fenders and a full re-spray along with body work are next on the list.

        wow noice

        For some reason I think the 88's look better in the rear with a ever so slight tuck to the metal bumper vs. the plastic back there. Front pulls off the metal bumpers well too. Keep it the way it is!

                        no you don't need different fenders, they are dented at the bottom and a little rust is creeping

                          16x7 37mm offset, running 5mm h&r spacers all around (still need some hub centric rings though!)

                          so if you guys know a place where i can get hubcentric rings lemme know!

                              Also check ebay for hubcentric rings from discount tire. You just buyitnow and tell them the size you need. They are aluminum too. Way better product and better price than the site above.

                              Like the ultraleggeras, where did you buy them from?
