Well I was browsing on craigslist for ***** and gigs and found a guy selling the CF hood I want for only $400 soooo I bought it.

As you can see in that picture I painted my calipers yellow (yes I'm one of those guys who has a black car and wants to go batmobile theme so im going black and yellow) so I got bored and painted my engine cover!

I still need to get in with a small brush and fill in the nissan letters in black to make it look better but I'll do that when I have the time because my G3's should be arriving in the next few hours!!!!1!1!!!oneoneone!!!

I was thinkng about 10mm or 15mm, but after looking at the wheel well again, I think 15-20mm.

What brand do you guys suggest? H&R seems a popular choice.

H&R DRS spacers. These have the removable studs which arguably makes them more safe. I've had mine on for over a years without issues. I drive aggressively.

Just ran out and managed to snap some pictures so we can have a better idea on the spacer thing.

I think I will get torn deciding between 15 and 20.

Spohn you sux LOL Yes im jelly (as Kenman would say) Congrats and post details. I'd love to get some sponsors when I get my ZL1 and start tracking it.

Alcheng you look tipped in at the top on the rear. You said your align is good though right? I agree you need some spacers, I have 20s on the back H&R.

Footloose I agree on the H&R's.

Can anybody see the pics that Mc posted I can't.
