Thanks... I'm going by my friends paint shop again tonight to help out on a '57 SL so I'll bring my camera and take more pics. Cleaning my air filter now, that thing was filthy.

I got mine at Sun Ski and Sport, they had a 40% discount sale going on around tax return time. Plus I had a coupon for off the total so I got it all for around 325 which isnt bad, thats the whole rack, lock keys, and the two bike holders.

I rolled the rear fenders at first and did the fronts when I got my coilovers just for precaution but it wasn't needed. But it all depends on your wheel offset in the rear if it'll rub or not. I have +33 in the rear and it only rubs if I go over a big dip on the highway, but its just rubbing the fender lining. If you got wheels with a +35 offset I dont think you'll rub at all. Hope that helps.
I'll be getting 17x8.5 +30 fr and 17x9.5 rr +30 here in the next month once the guy ships them off. for tires i'll be running 225/45/17 and 255/40/17.

Thanks... I'm running Tein basics, got a good deal on them from a member on here. Anytime you lower your car or do anything to suspension, you should get an alignment IMO. Camber on mine wasn't too bad, rears camber are just a little bit negative and the fronts are still OEM spec.
