Nice rims Vu!!!
I'm curious about the rubbing issue too. Did you have to do anything special to prevent any rubbing?

There is slight rubbing like if I hit a bump while turning the wheel....or if I hit a large bump then it rubs a little bit.... but thats only cus I like to drive my car really low. If I were to raise it up it would not rub at all......

Yes i had to cut the inside of my rear fender well.... just trim it up a bit..otherwise the 19's wouldnt fit with my camber kit.... Id have to ride with a bad camber.... so thats why i cut the inside so I can still have positive camber with 19's

What did you use to to shave the rear fenders?

Where did you buy your dash kit?

So clean i wish i could get 18's or 19's but streets suck inside the loop. They must have really nice ones in North Shore. Where did you get your kit painted? My Xenon kits paint is cracking a little and some is peelin off

THe car looks nice. I don't like that wing though. Looks like if you go fast enough, u might take off. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] no offense. Otherwise, it looks real sweet. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

It looks like some of the paint is chipping. I think it could be from the bugs that stick to the bumper. Is there anything that I can put on it to protect it? How do you keep your bumper so clean?

dang--car looks real good--i like the wing--you've got the same look I'm wantin to go for--as for the chippin paint thing, they might not have used an adhesion promoter when they painted it, might not have scuffed the bumper properly, or might not have used a flex agent in the clear coat. Could be any of the above.
