good choice with the suspension setup, that's the same setup i have. before you take off the side thats rubbing, try driving it around some more. give it a couple days to sit correctly then the rubbing might go away, if not then find out whats wrong.
that thing is screaming for an OEM front bumper

Personally, I like the current front bumper.
However, it doesn't mean I won't get a OEM front with a lip. I am thinking about it. |

cool, i just think that front bumper has too much going on and distracts from the rest of the car.
are you gonna paint it all orange or all black or what?

Two-tone: Black from the body and up and Orange from the body and down.
There is a chop of the car in the Photography forum off what the car should look like. |

I must admit that I actually kinda like that paint job idea. I'm not one for flashy, or bright colors but thats not too shabby. Not diggin the front bumper or hood though... but thats just me. I'm a pretty picky person. Tends to cause problems for me to... with cars and women... bleh.
Nice project though, coming along well. Be sure to post pics when its painted.

Thanks man. I was hoping the scheme would get some good reviews from ppl. Don't worry, the hood will be replaced. Working on a new VIS OEM cf hood for the car. Along with a OEM front bumper and lip for it. |

Need some opinions.
As most of you all know, I want to get a new cf hood for the car as the current one is too "ricey".
After doing some searching and research, I have to decided to go with either Seibon or VIS (highest quality companies). But, the problem I have is which hood to get.
Choices (CF Hood):
1. OEM Hood ( nice, clean look )
2. Invader ( nice looking hood, not ricey IMHO )
3. Evo Style ( nice looking hood, really common, not ricey IMHO )
I know it is my overall choice on what I want. I just want to here what you all have to say about. Don't flame me about this, serious question here.
