I fiberglassed a plug and molded it in, its not perfect but its better than the hole that was there.

10" on the inside where the tires bead, 11" on the outside of the lips.

I went out and took some pics to mess with some camera settings in an attempt to get some practice for H20i this weekend. Anyway here are some new pics.

And you have no clearance issues? What's the offset?

I worked around them. I rolled the lips of the rear quarter panels and fenders flat a long time ago. I also have 225 tires on a 10" wheel which gives me a little stretch and I have shims to add some negative camber. From the math I and a few other people have done the offset is right around +13.

Try and go an inch lower.

55 for now but when I get new tires I am going to go up a size or two.

I'm going up with a group of friends. 9+ hour road trip tomorrow. My car is staying home.

I have had it so low it won't move, but at this height is as low as I can still get into the ghetto alley to park in the lot at my apartment (and only drag skid plate in 3 places). When I need new tires I think I am going back up to stock size equivalents which are about an inch taller, then I can lower the car another half-inch and still have the same skid plate to ground clearance but lose half inch of fender gap.

Take pics at H2O. I wanna go, but don't have the time or money right now.

Looks good. I cant wait to see the front finished.

As for the hole in the front bumper.....a intercooler would fill that hole better

Props on the work!


GMR has got nothing on this

I agree but I think my 11.77:1 compression is a little too high for boost on this engine.
