No I had a set of 18's on the 20's would have robbed a little more power.

Thanks Will,I welded in some metal like the Nismo ones and Mike put on a satin gray powercoat, I like it allot.

Frank, do you have any step by step pics of the strut bar creation?

No I just took a pic of a Nismo strut bar and kind of measured by eye where the struts should be and welded them in then ground it down and metal finished it and sent it to Mike for powder coating.

The only thing I messed up on is the Nismo struts are a little wider than the ones I installed.

The strut it self is 2 pieces of metal one on top of the other I just welded up the seam and ground it to fit.

I got a couple of pics of my Shine auto front lip & rear add on's plus stillen rocker's,to cold to put them in I should get a nice day here soon the winters in Georgia are pretty mild.

SPOHN · 12-26-2011, 11:41 AM

Sweet Frank. Can't wait to see them on the car. I wish someone would make the rear spats but where they connect all the way across the rear section.

Baer383 · 12-31-2011, 05:59 PM

Here are some pics ,I took the rockers back off to add more pearl they are way to light compared to the quarter panel.

I even two toned the paint that goes into the wheel well area so it looks OE

nice work

TheGreatOne · 12-31-2011, 06:03 PM

Looking really good, meaner now with those add ons. And you're right, you gave it a nice OEM touch

kevr6 · 12-31-2011, 06:08 PM

Looks good! I of course did not think you were going to paint it exactly the same as I did since we go to same meets all the time! This is a surprise!

I didn't' want to two tone it like that but it was a bitch to tape it up to have more white vs black ,plus I went with Stillen rocker vs Shine auto.

Looks great Frank. Can't wait to see it in person. How much lower is the lip in the middle? Can't wait to order mine I'm CF.

Dude my car is so low that I can't get it out of my driveway,I will have to raise it up to get it out.

The lip is as low as the bottom of the chin spoiler.
