Lol. No worries man. This particular car has fought me on everything. I've done the same swap on other foxes and not had this issue. But like said there are dozens of other variables that come into play.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

thinking about plasti-dipping the wheels gold/bronze. The black on the front wheels is fading and the whole blacked out wheel is just played out.

i need to understand plastidip the local new car wash scrapped strips of the darn coating off my accord stock rims. then denied it as i pointed out the metal in wheel cleaner pads had worn through....and we watched it take more off in a demonstration run to "prove" it wasnt him...

oh well life's too short the not nice owner lost my weekly gas business etc and i guess ill learn how to plastidip clear..

No. Clean with detergent. Let dry, mask and spray. Goes right on top of the old stuff.

Yes, plastidip is pretty amazing, I buy cans of the stuff and look for stuff to spray.

I think I've got the frpp springs. Tucks tire with 16s and 245/50 tires.

Acetone works good as a cleaner paint prep.

Edit, your car looks nice btw.
