Default Broke out the good camera, not for purists :)

Thought I would drive out into the Everglades and take some pics with my Nikon D3100 instead of the usual phone pics.
Lots of updates

Car looks great! Nobody would ever guess the year. You must have spent $$$ but it came out perfect. Headlamps look great as well.

Hello,

What size wheels AND Tires

Is your car Lowered ALL the Way on the Stock Bolts with STOCK rubbers
or Cut Rubbers (please detail if so)

I'm in the process of installing 19x10.5 with 295/30 and 19x12.5 with 345/30
Lowered ALL the way on Stock/Bolts and Rubbers but still appears High in BACK
but Im not finished with my Wheel/Tire/Caliper/Rotor Mods so NO pics yet......

"lowered on stock bolts with 1 rib left on the bolt. Not all the way lowered"

WHAT the hell does that mean ????
Please explain WHAT you wrote
or restate What you did ????

(The OE Rubber that is attached to the Bolt
would seem to have three "ribs", whereas
the bolts have threads)

Beautiful car, and not offensive at all. Nice mods. Maybe a little too much adjustment with contrast and brightness on the camera...haha..
