P.s. S14FBS your car is Nice
A 17x9 +25 would hardly fit with almost all standard coil-overs, I dont see how a 17x10 will unless you have modded lower brackets.

Yea... I have 17x9+22 Up front, and it clears my coils by literally like 2mm. This reminded me that I need spacers.

Damn, I need to do this to my headlights. If it's not too much of a hassle, can you PM me what you used/did?

trust, you never realize how cool your car is until you see it rolling, not driving it.
i do this on occasion just to remind myself not to get rid of it.

also darens s14 RIP stella.

AMEN, even when my car was white, i remember letting my dad drive it home one time, and seeing it on the road

i have yet to see the car after paint, from a 3rd person point of view. when the roads get less salty this is the first thing i'll do

ps. daniel , is that flat black car "daren's"? what's the story on it?

click my blog in my sig. I list the grit I used. I got it from another guy locally (forgot his name!!!), and he told me to do it in that order and not go over 12mins per grit.

They are just sanded down, not even polished . I didn't even use my invisi-glass yet either. I do plan on polishing them in the near future.

ganadors come in tomorrow, and I start school tomorrow (m-thurs 8am-10am then work 1pm-10pm T__T). Hopefully, I can get my wing fitted then off to paint! some other goodies I will be purchasing

EDIT: danny speaks the truth, I realized after looking at my car on yuta's blog that I didn't notice I was that low...

Dope. Thanks man. Yeah, when I do mine, I'm gonna polish them, and then maybe buy a sheet of lamin-x to cover them in to prevent the UV rays from yellowing/hazing the headlights.

And awesome on the Ganadors man! How much do those run for nowadays anyway? Are they really $600 like every link I find on Google?

anywhere from 250-350 used is a good deal , but not to many "used" sets floating around. New can be had via YAJ and 3rd party dudes . i think they are like 40k yen new or so + shipping + fees . if u buy new from a USA vendor probably 600$
