Finally got around to taking pictures. Notice the difference:

Before


After


Now I just have to figure out what to do with the taillights. Yeah, they're Altezza, but at least they have an amber turn signal. I'm thinking about a partial smoking, just haven't decided yet.

Big time improvement. But are those orange calipers and drums?

Yeah, I stayed with 15s because they are so light and I didn't want to have to worry about someone stealing them. The tires are 205/60 because I wanted to go wider for traction and stay similar to stock size.

I hope to give it a little drop soon, but the funds are low.

So nobody has suggestions for the Altezzas? Wow, I thought there'd be 20 replies of "Get rid of them!" Has anyone had any luck pulling the lens off and painting the housing? I've heard of several people breaking them trying to pull them off. I just love the amber turn signal. Is there any other way to have the amber turn signal?
