cool. are you going for the glossy black roof then?

yep, the lowering will definitely finish off the look, i think.
i recommend swifts if they are going to make them for your car.

I emailed swift quite a few months back and talked to some people when they were out at the last Fontana meet but they just kinda brushed me off like I was a joke so that kinda turned me off on them.don't get me wrong they do make great springs but their customer service is lacking and as far as the roof wrap goes, definitely looking at going with black on the roof

At least you're still in the mix with Tanabe, you will have something soon enough!

very true lol...im glad at least Tanabe is paying attention to this car...who knows maybe getting some pictures published by Tanabe will get the other manufacturers to get their butts in gear and actually do something
