^^ - Thank you guys - after I got home from that drive, got the headlight film in the mail - had to go out to dinner with the in-laws and all I could think about was getting home so I could see if I could do it. Last light is going to have to wait until tomorrow. . .It's subtle but I LOVE it already!!!!!

Thanks brother, I don't find that the least bit surprising considering that you are pretty much the ORIGINATOR of everything I've done. . .the engine treatment. . .concave wheels. . .making sure it's always clean; I just wish I could do SOMETHING that you haven't already though of/ done

Sun, I have a sneaky feeling that you're up to something epic. . .either with this platform or another

Excuse my ignorance...but why is your engine "wrapped" like that? Is it to redcue heat?

I wish it were so my friend! Don't have anything big planned for the 211 as of now. Just enjoying her at different track events here and there with friends.

As far as another platform...that will have to wait and see.

WOW.... 11" wide rears? What size tire and brand you running back there?

It looks like you were doing a lot of research on fitment before pulling the trigger on this setup, so I'm curious to know the final specs.
