i painted the inlet on the valance and the inside area of the fog light/markerlight/brake duct holes in the bumper semi gloss black before i sprayed the red. It hides the repair work i did to the valance that was broken when i bought the car and makes the area more dramatic.

as for unsprung weight, these wheels are lighter than the boxster twists i took off.

Never really liked 18's myself, but those are pretty damn sweet. Sucks that i am leaving to go to school, otherwise I'd come up for an autox so that I could get to see those!

Dan, I meant to add that comment last night. I'm POSITIVE those wheels are downright feather-weights. I had no clue you'd even swapped cars (again) til a day or two ago. Love that Euro front, too. More pics...

Dan,
I'm glad I jerked you around yesterday. Those look better, and the shipping was quicker.

If I go out to florence again in the fall I want to see those in person!!!!
