i saw that last night. i dont need any interior parts anymore.

i finished both sides of the fender today before it got really cold but it still needs a bit more sanding and bondo but you cant notice the wavyness. ill finish it after the drift event. also installed the coilovers. waiting on the studs, bushings and the dtss eliminators. so itll definitely be kinda completed this week.

it drove yesterday. hell, i drove it to andy's house lol. had to stop for a little bit to adjust the camber but only helped a little.

today after messing with it i need a 2mm or 5mm spacer up front to keep it from rubbing on the spring while its at full lock. with a 5mm spacer i think is enough to where itll clear the spring and also i can tuck the front in more and go lower. right now the camber is at +3 which looks a little funky to me.
