Travis,
I think I will be keeping it. The bulge didn't look so obvious when I picked it up. The bodyshop did point it out to me though. Soon enough, the bumper will be full of chips from the track, and it doesn't bother me enough to warrant them replacing it, only for me to have to get it reblended, painted and installed. I may do car shows like Zdayz or The Run down in tampa, but thats really just to participate, not to win. I don't even really clean my car before a show. As for the nismo rims, thats all shes getting other than the track wheels. This car rarely sees the street. I was supposed to also use it as an airport car, but they recently put some speed humps in the parking lot and now the exhaust scrapes leaving work, so I don't think I will be driving it there much either.

![]() ![]() It was a hot day. I don't know if the wheel got well over 400 degrees, or if this formulation of powdercoat can't take as much heat as the other colors I use, but the powdercoat actually melted at the hub and discolored on the spokes after a couple of hot sessions at Barber. You can see where it spread out and ran onto the rotor. Hope its not too hard to remove the wheels now.
