Today I got the tires taken off the works emotion rims and took them out LPC to be powdercoated. Great guy out there @ LPC....the color is a firm of black but it's gonna be a crazy nice black. Can't wait to get them back and get my tires ordered. Dunlop dizzerra star spec in 255/35/18. That will finish up the sexy stance

So anyone who has seen my car either in person or on here knows i have a front end problem. The fenders have small dents, the bumper has missing paint, pieces of it are falling off and worst of all the bumper is being held on by zip ties. The douchbag who owned my car before me really messed it up and stripped the holes for the bolts and plastic clips. So right now my rims are @ LPC getting powdercoated and before they get put on, im going to buy some Seibon CF fenders so the fender work wont have to be done twice. They are 10mm wider than stock so that should help with fitment. And then once the rims and CF fenders are on im going to find a OEM bumper, new plastic clips, and the bolts to hold the bumper to the fenders and that will really clean up the front of my car. Anyways heres some pics of the problems:

Bumper Problems



Sagging Cause of the Zip Ties



Zip Ties Themselves







Hopefully within the next 2 months all of this will be cleaned up and returned to OEM look besides the CF fenders.....Thanks Guys!!

Your front bumper is not trimmed properly for your FMIC causing the bumper not to fit right.

Your going to have to remove about half of that bottom lip in order to get everything to fit right.

Update: new plans are for a, in theory, bulletproof track car. I know not motor is bulletproof it's all in the tune, anything could happen yea yea yea....so that's why I said "in theory" lol. Looking to get my rims back from LPC this week and order tires then I'm going to finsih up the suspension and brakes. Then it's on to the raw shortblock and fp green turbo set up aiming for 400whp. Thanks!

Tires came in today and they are sexy. Nitto Invo in 255/35/18.




The whole tire/rim set up.

Need fenders, lug nuts (ordered), and the front bumper before there on. Hopefully finished and on by the end of next month. Thanks!
