Great scenery. Love the pic with the yellow 4s...T

So, Champion used wheels purchased on this forum, summer tires, TPMS, and mounting: just under $3k.

Waiting for better weather to put these bad boys on: priceless.

NB but I went aggressive with 305 on 11.5 on the rear.

Summer tires so they won't go on till March Or April. I did preview what they will look like. I know, nice stance .

Springs going on Monday, so that will help. I may throw the wheels on if it is a nice weekend to make sure it all fits.

Nope, Eibach. I was going to do it but decided to let FabSpeed do it since they are 30 minutes away and were reasonable.

Inspired by a thread on another forum, I decided to touch up two spots in the interior that were bothering me. One little chip especially on he mirror adjustment as it was right in my line of sight. The other was razor scratches from previous owners/dealers removing the state inspection stickers and knicking up the dash. That one is harder to see but is now visible as my state does not use the window stickers.






Pulled out the cigarette lighter and had them match the color at Home Depot. Also picked up some fine point brushes.












Turned out pretty well. It is still wet so the color is slightly darker. Due to the cold it is slow to dry. Either way, it looks better than it did.

I have no idea of the paint code. Just brought the cigarette lighter cover to the paint desk and had them match the color.
