lovley, its nice to see it all back together. Love the smooth rear bumper - are you going to have to fit a licence plate - shame if you have as it looks nice without.

What wheels are you running and are you using any spacers?

Seems to have quite a high ride height, mine was like that a little while ago, I found it turns them into a different beast once you lower them I bit.

Good luck with the last few bits

Looks fantastic!

What color is that? I love it.

P.S. I just saw the color on the gallon of paint. Bali Blue. Very nice.

It does seem wrong to have to put a licence plate on but if I want to drive it I have to. The wheels are 7's and 8's and yes do have spacers on in the rear. I had quarter inch spacers laying around so I put them on for now. I plan on lowering it down to the Euro height soon.
I love the color to.

Beautiful Car! I noticed you have the same seat that I'm installing in my car. I'm wondering you the fit is for you, I'm concerned about having enough headroom in my car for a helmet since I'm 6'3"+ tall. How tall are you and how does yours work out?

Michaell,
I am about 6' and it is very close. I used the Sparco mounts and am set at the lowest setting. you can get these seats lower but it requires modifying the stock seat rails. Good luck.

Thanks Rich. I'm kind of thinking that's going to be what I need to do, modifying the seat rails to the floor.
