Because the first years (1986) just turned 20yrs old last month.

Shit.......my car's 20 years old! Wow, and only 255000 or so miles, time for collector plates.

5 more years and we don't have to get an inspection anymore .

Dood, don't wet sand your hood. According to Adrian (mkymonkey), the paint shop told him you aren't supposed to sand carbon fiber hoods at all. Go ask a paint shop.

[3gn86lxi]

I work with a 25 year vetran painter.........we wet sanded before we cleared. The hood has a gelcoat and needs to be at least scuffed before clearing. Sides.....it turned out great, and I don't have to worry about the cf fading now.
If you look close too, the hood has a shit ton of FX pearl in it too.

Lookin good man. Is that a 21/2 inch drop? What kind of struts do you have with it?

[3gn86lxi]

Yep, it's 2 1/2 with the pinch forks modded. So it's 3 inches in the front, and 2.25 in the rear.
I have Koni reds in the front and Tokico HP blues in the back.

Yeah thats a good set up. I see why you needed those camber kits cause I have 2.25 sprints in the rear and it threw my camber off -2 degrees.

[bullard123]

What did you use for the front for camber correction?

[3gn86lxi]

What did you use for the front for camber correction?

I used an Ingalls kit for the front. Yeah.....dammit, I needed the rears! I think I will just do the washer trick.

How much did you pay for the fronts? I've been looking for some and they are a little pricey from the websites I looked at.

Uh, I bought it from my local Les Schwab. And I think it was a little over $100
And thanks for the comments guys.

When you going to put that lip & pacesetter on Ryan?

[3gn86lxi]

When you going to put that lip & pacesetter on Ryan?

Don't think I'm going to put the lip back on. The pacesetter will be soon. Along with the short shifter too. And my big brakes, and rear disks........ect........ect.......
You know how it goes, I don't have time for the car anymore, I have the motorcycle now.

It's painted now........that was pre-paint.
Sorry to confuse you guys!! Just thought I would show in primer. I don't think I ever did.

[89AccordResto]

Thats awesome, car looks great. I'd say raise the back end about half an inch and the stance would be perfect!!

Agreed. Back end looks a touch too low. I have the same issues on my car.

[Toneloc5145]

Nice clean car bro. Love the color Painting the moldings really changes how the whole car looks.
