Thanks. I was on the fence before I put them on but after, seems to be the correct relationship diameter wise for the car. Makes the car handle very well also due to wider/lower aspect ratio tires than the stock 16" rubber.

Splitter is from eBay. A friend of mine bought one so I had the advantage of seeing it before I ordered. Search for a guy named smart-dad and it should come up. I textured it and painted it gloss black and it has held up well. Very good fitment.

3m paintable undercoating. Just a splatter pattern to give it texture and then prime and paint.

Thanks. Did you do an aftermarket shifter? Looks nice.
