its been a while, so its time for a little update.
traded rims with Rev, and lowered my car another 1.5 inches. i wish the rear could go lower, but its already all the way down. i may have to raise the fronts another 1/4 inch just for "driveabilty" sake.
You could if just really like be able to say you have Tein all the way around. lol But my sleeve is 3/4 of the way up with the extended top hats. I just really don't think you're going to get the drop you want at this point with just those....but we shall see!

i might be interested in the center caps if you have a spare set.. i kinda like the look without as well but it would be nice to have them.
what rims do you have in your possession as of late, Rage? :P

Assuming he has the BBS center caps they won't work. They are designed differently as far as mounting goes. I'll give the previous owner a call about the caps he said he had since I never cared when I had them. lolol But these are the caps new.
1. JDM Beagle seating surfaces. plush and soft cloth and its even got a seat-back pocket! passenger side has a worn spot, since that used to be the drivers side :P the rest cleaned up super nice, now my interior smells like fresh laundry haha. i plan on redoing the door cards this week in a gray leather that matches the seat back color.
i may point out this was a really huge PITA to do. the front cushions do not simply fold onto the USDM seats, they are quite different and required a bit of fabrication and a LOT of sewing (which i hate doing ) took me about 16 hours to do this. i got a set of seats from a junkyard for cheap so i wouldnt have to take apart my still-very-nice stock seats.
also cleaned the cargo carpet
2. Full HKS catback exhaust system, sounds amazing. very quiet, but deep when you punch it. hard to explain, but truly an amazing sound. to make it work with the wagon, i had to extend the middle pipe about 6 inches. only took about 3-4 hours to fabricate from beginning to end.

the newest wheels are the best by far. i was happy when the pink wheels went away. lol

If you are talking about the supercharger he already has.
Car is looking good!! The new rims really set it off. I have to check but I might have the center caps for those.
