How often do you have to tighten up the C-clamps holding the front spoiler on the car.

It looks really good with those wheels on it.  I might loose the traction bars but those look OK.

Lets see some pics of the back of the car.  How is the rear tailpanel finished?(all black or argent around the tail lights)

Nice car!!!

  I have to tighten them at about every oil change. Heres a little update so far on the passenger side door panel

[Justins72]

Its been A long time since I updated this but long story short I rushed the interior wrapping on the door panels and rear side panels, the glue I used and the heat from summer didnt really agree with each other and so it started to come apart. but thats okay, I learned my lesson.

Looks resl nice, Justin.  

Was wondering, how did you lower your suspension? 

Also, do you remember off hand what is the back spacing front and rear on your rims?  Look very cool!

Front was lowered with the torsion bars turned down a bit, this was before the 2 inch drop spindle came out so I will be going with that in the future, The rears was left alone, I had some weird drag hangers back there that lifted the springs so I took them off and that lowered it.

backspacing for the front was 17x8 with 4.5" as for the rear backspace it is a 18x10 with I want to say it was either 6" or 5.5" I had to run an Adapter for them to fit. I know some people say stay away from adapters or spacers but I dont race the car. The only high speed I see is on the freeway. Wheels have been on for 3 years now and have not had 1 problem with them.

  Its been A long time since I updated this or worked on my car, But I do have some updates.  First thing is that DAP weldwood glue didnt hold up to well in the summer heat and Im going to have to redo the panels. Im not sure if just couldnt handle it or It was my prep/application of the glue wasnt right. Im going to go with it was my prep work but thats okay I have some different directions I want to go with the panels.
 
  Second, I decided to install power door locks in the car for the alarm system I felt that I need (more wanted). Going off of what a couple of other members on the board did I used them as a guide, Thanks to the members for taking the time in taking pictures it was very help full. This kit I used was the electric life 5 wire unit since I felt I may need the higher pull/push force of the actuators. The alarm I went with is a keyless ignition + Entry system. I no longer need my keys unless for some reason my battery dies to get into the car. It will replace my ignition switch with a push button out of a lexus. It uses a credit car type Smart key that automatically unlocks and locks when I get certain distance to the car.

Was able to get the power door locks installed, adjusted and working today. Also quickly hooked up the keyless entry to try out the proximity remotes. worked out well.

Little update. I smoothed the plastic that the heater and radio went and mounted the push start button and led light there. Next on the list is removing the engine to be painted and a cam swap to something more street friendly.
