Yea, its an auto right now so I'm planning on putting a GSR in it with an LS tranny cuz of the longer gears and put a small 6 or 9p boost cuz its a daily right now. I'm really focused on trying to get it in the paint booth right now. I have a gallon of Championship White paint just sitting there teasing me! haha

Hmm, you sure it's a DB8? i've never heard of an auto sedan that wasnt a DB7... Course i could be wrong lol, but GSR's are DB8 and ls/gs/rs are DB7 :thumbs up But i know what you mean about parts teasing haha

you shouldn't get wheels with a low offset imo, and with that suspension either, i have tien basics and had 16x8 xxr 002 and it was a little annoying having the rear rub, you should go with something cleaner and more functional

Yea i know, thats why under the plans up there I'm planning on getting the skunk2 pro s II coilovers and the camber kits before the rims. I like the flush look. =)

If i lose the cf hood then the cf trunk really wouldnt flow as well. I'm thinking of getting an OEM style CF hood.

Of all non-OEM carbon fiber hoods, the one you got is my favorite. But of course OEM CF hoods look the best on our tegs, mainly because of our distinct looking front ends.

NOW, on the JDM fronts, the CF hood you got looks real good on them.

And your teg is low as fuck, a little too low for my tastes, but thats just me. I prefer to be low enough to just hide any wheel gap. Plus the matrix springs are pretty ebay specialish, do they still ride good? I know some ebay springs are built a lot better than others, like mine are the Tenrai brand and they are stiff, not bouncy and ride smoothly, but those cheap ass "M" springs or whatever the fuck they are are so damn fucking shitty and bouncy as hell.

Im planning on getting some coilovers though, probably form and function but I dont know yet.

Anyways, very nice teg, keep us updated with that bitch!!! cant wait to see the CW paint..sexiest color on a teg next to black :)
