First ever pics of my car on rennlist! The reason i havent post these before is that they are 4 years old. And ive done a whole lot to the car since then...and even still im awaiting some new stuff for the car. I am however looking to sell the wheels featured in the pics, prolly sometime around Christmas...Thanks for checking them out! I'll be sure to post more pics after my winter projects are completed!

Same here as mine is still new looking! I questioned it being a repaint because the rear decals are gone. I was blessed as the car is a sunbelt car and was a garage queen for most of it's life so the paint is essentially new. Your pics remind me of mine when I got it..........and before tracking it! But your is very nice indeed!! Good job with her! Dal

Lars:
Youre talking about the front flex dam right? The one dallas has pictured on his car, as well as in the garage pic?
I wasnt aware tweeks sold them, just flipped thru the catalog and didnt see it. But i know Automobile Atlanta sells them for around $120. I think other places have them too...

Dallas:
I think i mentioned this to you a while back...i have lowered the car as well(no shown in the pic) and with that i get some minor rubbing during aggresive cornering on the outside fender lip, this is with a 205 tire in the front... so i have a set of turbo phone dials(7's and 8's) that i cam going to try and run instead with maybe a 195 (i know stock was 205 for that wheel) on the front...

On my car the 205's rubbed till the heavier springs went on. I have come to the conclusion there is a very fine line to tread when getting a proper wheel/tire set up on the 924! You have 225# range springs correct? Sway bar? Dal

Erich, I love those weels, I think they would look great with the car
lowered!

But yeah, rubbing is bad. Thanks for the tip because I was leaning
towards 16" wheels and now I see that's probably the best bet!
I have basically the same car as you, but an unfortunate paint job
in it's history...
