Still beautiful! Good to hear from you.

We can see too far.

Those 1LE wheels looking tough!

Just sent a factory set for powder coating...going with Satin black, hoping it turns out nice against the dark gray paint

Do you have lowering springs on your Fifty?

Take a look at the Camaro Six Buy Sell Facebook page...I see these rims pop-up every couple of weeks in States for a decent price.

Thanks brother! They are actually MRR M017s. Just a shade lighter than the OE 1LE wheels. I think they work nice with the NGM paint.

Yes, I have aFe Control lowering springs.

That stance looks nice for sure! I am looking at Eibach...might just consider the aFE springs now after seeing how it sits.

You feel it made a difference in the ride quality...performance wise?

Well, I installed the aFe Control adjustable sway bars at the same time. So I can't review how the springs alone felt. The combination was real. Car is on rails. After the BMR upper/lower control arms and trailing arms. Damn, just damn.

Oil change day. Got this out of the catch can. I change oil every 3K miles.

I updated my underhood bling. Went from orange plasti-dipped covers and 3M wrapped strut tower brace to hydrographic dipped covers and brace. Here’s the before and after. Regardless how red the new pieces look in the photos, it’s an orange carbon fiber dip.

Looking 1000% better now than before Feels like this could be a factory option and it would sell pretty well.

I wondered if MRT had done them.

Last year when we were at MRT, during the tour, he talked about their hydro-dipping ability, but I don't think it was brought up this year.

It was brought up in the May meeting at their shop. Then when we toured the shop, Scott talked about it. I chatted with him later about how they manage different colors and suddenly, we had a plan.
