Thanks glenn it was really nice out today, I know I had fun haha. The cdc lip, gt500 wing are on my list. Where did you get yours painted? Was it hard to do the stripes, I'm worried about messing them up around the trunk lip, and front bumper. Not looking forward to that snow...

The wing I got on Ebay for like $129.00 painted and shipped...
The CDC front spoiler I had my painter do in St. Charles...
All the stripes were done by a guy I know in Roselle who owns a graphic shop...
Just let me know when your ready and I'll give you their info.

Looking good, but the photobucket resizing is not doing the car justice. I would personally sign up for Flickr (their resizing is perfect) or get Windows Power Toys. It's free at Microsoft.com and has a great resizer in it as well as a few additional tweaks. Jagged pictures are teh lose.

I have always loved the blue and white combination. Such a good look! Same goes for the red and white.

I've seen the same thing with SLR's even. I guess it could be the camera's compression that causes photobucket to make the picture look like crap. Either way, if you use something else to resize, it looks much better.

Beecha...

Are you talking about the Cervini's 1/4 window scoops like the ones I have?

If so, be advised that they (at least mine were) are a beyyach to install because they just didn't fit perfectly over the windows. I had to sand the hell out of them to fit right. It is possible I just got a bad set...

Anyone else with these scoops have trouble?

But I do LOVE the way the cervinis scoops look!

Took me 3 or 4 times sticking them and removing them before I got them to fit right!

I would make sure he has done gear swaps for the S197 model first. Hate to have you riding around with the dreaded gear whine!

Yes Heavy... those are the ones.

So you had some trouble also? I have pulled them off twice now. Are yours COMPLETELY flush now with the body or is there a tiny gap?

I'm beginning to think there is no way to get them flush.

Heavy...

PS- are those the Torq Thrust wheels with the snake center cap?

I have those, but mine are black. But how did you get the deep dish lip? Mine do not look like that.
