I always wondered how that color would look on the sedan and it looks great! Now paint match the wing!

As far as wheels on stock suspension +38 will be flush. Especially since youre only.going 9'. I ran 18/9.5 *38 on stock suspension on my sti for a while and it looked 'okay' you really do need a drop to really pull off aggressive wheels.

+38 isnt that aggressive and depending on what size tire you run you might not need to do anything. But i just highly suggest rolling the rear Flat and pulling it alightly. Thats what i did. Now im sitting on 18/9.5 +38 rocking a 275/35 tire with almost no wheel gap and i never rub. Ever. And i drive the car daily sometimes packed with people, autox, track, no rubbing. Ever.

+38 imo is perfect offset to look good while running any tire size your heart desires and retaining all drive abilty.

When i get home ill post my stock height pictures for you, or just pm me

Shot from my phone, I'm starting to think I need a real camera.
Second image is before the lip install.

Finally made my way through all 386 pages of this thread. Got a whole bunch of new ideas for the car and learned a lot of useful information. Here is an old HDR photo my buddy took of the car around the time of purchase.



I'll post some more pictures after a wash this weekend. The car currently has a Cobb ACN91 Stage 1 Tune, SPT Catback Exhaust, RA Mudflaps, and red overlays.

Jive, the wing comes black on that model. It's part of what makes it special, just like the black wheels and black STI side mirrors. I'm so jealous!

Also, I agree about the +38 offset.



I put the stock mufflers back on during lunch.


Exhaust hangers are lame. The stock muffler has a lot nicer rumble compared to Nameless' axleback without mufflers. They're so heavy, though!

Trying to get a trade-in estimate soon.

idc if that makes it special, it looks out of place. it all needs to be painted to mach IMO

Psh. Remind me to never buy you a limited run of a vehicle, ever. The S206 has silver side mirrors. I'm sure you'd paint-match those, too, wouldn't you?

[_davin]

Silver mirrors are dumb but I dig the black spoiler.

silver side mirrors are okay depending on what car they are on. for example all S model audi's run polished silver mirrors its like their trademark. the mirrors dont bother me, but you cna't agree that the car wouldn't look better with a painted to match wing? ATLEAST the base and sides of it.

[chanomatik]

I'm just giving you a hard time. I hate the black wing, but I appreciate that it's a feature. haha I would love it with the sides and bases painted orange.

so, is the ornage a special limited edition color or something?? i love seeing custom colors on newer cars that isnt factory paint, makes you really stand out.

its only available in australia IIRC. its either ornage or black, with sti wing, leather interior with orange pinstriping or red (if you have black). its just a limited edition appearance package essentially.

It's the ADM only Clubspec, last I checked. Bet you wish the US got one of those :P
