No adjustable arm kits unfortunately.

Euro style trunk lids have a longer opening that can fit a euro plate. The NA trunk lid started in 97.

They're the strips that normally go along the pillars and headliner but I took them out to remove the pillars and haven't glued them back yet.

Did you buy fisheye that attaches to the lens?

Car's looking great as always!

Random bump. Yes I did buy one of those cheap attachments. I got super .25x fisheye for like $52 shipped. It's been pretty fun for the price. Even just using macro is pretty cool. I have no complaints.

Anyway, I guess I'll update this. The other week my rear passenger side wheel bearing exploded.. I didn't have the time or tools to fix it myself so I had to send it to a shop ($918 ftl..) and in order for anyone to work on my car it needed to be raised a little bit so I raised it like 25 threads front and back and rode like that for a couple days. The ride was surprisingly comfortable for vmaxx, I could barely even feel potholes or anything.. I didn't take any gtf measurements but here's a picture.

I figured that was too high so I lowered back down to uncomfortably low. Kept the back a little bit higher than it used to be and the front is down some. Also threw some 20mm spacers in the rear.
