A rainy night in Hong Kong...
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/1312/mytt.jpg"></center><p>but I still managed to get off work a bit early to pick up my car. Sorry for the poor quality of the picture.
I really have to thank my local shop for a fantastic job they did with the headlights. You may not be able to see the clear corners mod but I guess you can catch that they painted the inner headlight "black" part to silver. Along with the projektzwo grill I think the car looks great! :<
Along with that I also installed Bilstein PSS 9, and I give it a 10 out of 10. Ride is much more predictable and precise. I set them at F4, R4 now but I think I can go for F3, R3. Anyhow, I'll play with the settings a little more once they have "settled" down.
One thing that really shocked me was the rear camber. From the picture it almost looks like my rear suspension has collasped! Thank god Stratmosphere Pete has already sent out the Forge adjustable rear tie rods(along with a hyperboost) so I should be back to the shop next weekend for minor height adjustments, installation of the tie rods and alingment check. Oh yea, what would be a good rear camber setting? Somewhere between 1.2 to 1.7 degree?
Last but not least the BBS CHs. I fell in love with them the first day they came out. I put 235s up fronts and 255s at the back. The rubber I choose apparently is not avaliable in the US. Ironically they are called the Goodyear Revspec which are from Goodyear of Japan rather than Goodyear of the US.
I'll take some day shots of the car during this weekend...

Do you see many of these there? I'd like to get a price on a Hong Kong Top
