I'm way too bored right now and bought some random things because ECS had a blowout today on some... random things.







$30. Shipped. Two sets of floor mats because they both had slight variations and they were less than a buck. Ha.

And this, for the lulz.

That "Front End Cover" should fit pre-facelift too I'm assuming? They say facelift only... Same bumber for pre-facelift and facelift??? But damn you sure found a good deal, I'm gonna have to pick one up too!

The hood is the same and I'm only using that piece. Probably going to throw it on for winter to change it up a bit.

I think I'm going to try and sell it, there isn't much demand for it but it was only 5 bucks, I couldn't pass that up.

LOL that's not winter mode, if you notice I still had preface tails and the 205/40 tires... that's from when I first got the wheels and coilovers. It was so ugly.

I'm still in the process of winter moding. 24" gtf in the rear and 22.5" up front, SUPER RAKE. Damn front coils.

The interior wasn't too hard, just time consuming. A lot of pressure clips to get the pieces off, then glue and fabric. If you search around maybe audidiy.com and other sites you can find some walk throughs on how to remove certains interior bits. Good luck!

So what size are your wheels and what size are your current tires?

I'm gonna pick up some VMAXX (HellaBROKE) and I was planning on 215/40 on my 18x8.5s. 225/40 is a perfect match but I'm worried about rubbing. I'm going to roll my fenders and slam it down, but I am a bit worried about looking like I need more sidewall to fill in the fenders like that pic you posted.

Glad I could help!

215/40 on an 18 would look good. My wheels are 17's and I have 215/45's on there now, I wish I went with 205/45 for more stretch so I could go a bit lower and still turn. You should be fine, if not, go lower.
