Nope. I don't have blemishes yet on the car...only on the stock wheel when the tire shop fixed(?) The flat.

Not a damn thing. Haven't even driven the car in a week.
Actually, I looked at the springs and spacers in my garage and wondered when the hell I was going to ever get those parts installed. Doesn't matter. The world ends tomorrow, anyway.

Langka is a good system, I've also looked into Dr. Colorchip. May be worth a try especially since they can factory match with their quick-cure paint.

Washed both cars, detailed. Mounting GoPro and DSLR in cabin for tomorrows Run.

3rd alignment today, different shop.

kenchan, the dealers rack was out of calibration...yeh! New front camber -1.6 and -1.5, got the toe set to zero both front and back.

Wow...how quick the steering response is, I have only driven a few miles since alignment, but like it alot so far. .....will know better after tomorrows run...but I am doing the happy dance. The technician said sometimes for the wild variations in camber can be caused by not having the scope reader mounted properly on the rim.

I will post up the sheets probably Sun.

Zforce sounds good! Yah the previous numbers at the other shop made no sense.
So u got zero toe in the rear? No wandering in the back over bumps on one side of car??

No wandering, I just took it on three on/off ramps (right hand turns with bumps) and rock solid. I will know better tomorrow after I wring it out on the Run.

It would appear that the Langka system does not use color matching. You start by using a bottle of your manufacturers touch up paint. I briefly read Dr. Colorchip's system once before, but need to look again.
