I just did a few more mods to my ride. I added Motegi wheels and Riken Raptor tires. I really like the look that it adds to my Red/Black theme. I also did a mod that I haven't seen yet. I had my center Solo exhaust powder coated in black. Now the soot from the turbo is all gone.

Wow, the car looks great!! I must say, I love the black/red themes. Even if it's red on black or black on red

I too am thinking about powdercoating the pipes black due to soot. Chrome is too hard to maintain.

Keep up the good work!! Two thumbs up from me.

That is a nice looking ride you got there. Only thing to set it off just a little bit more. Some lowering springs. It will take out most of the wheel gap, and the car will ride like a champ.

Yeh I'm thinking of getting the Eibach springs. Do you think I would get any rubbing issues?

You should have no problems at all. I have done 18s 19s and 20s all on the solstice. Also there are 2 people who have 22's on their solstice. What size are the ones you put on? They look like 18s ?

You hit the nail on the head, they are 18's.

I ordered the Eibach springs on Tuesday, they should arrive on Saturday but my installer will not be able to do it then. I may have them installed next week. Can't wait to have the car lowered and improved ride performance.

Let me know if the ride is harsh and if there is lots of bouncing. I had them on my focus and the ride was bad around here. Do you need to replace the shocks or are the factory dampers strong enough? I had to replace them on the focus because the factory ones would have blown.

Did you get the pro-kit or the sportline springs...i am ordering them also but forgot which one was the correct fit.

Great pics by the way! I love those black pipes...saw them in person and they are great!
