esquire - are you still running 15 mm spacers all the way around especially in the rear even with the new clubsports?

currently i'm running 18mm in the front, 12mm in the back. i've been considering going back to a 15 mm in the back though, because i increased my compression settings, which means less travel, and thus less likelihood of rubbing the rears.

You're preaching to th pulpit man. I just love that it's a canary yellow, and not the typical yellow you see on sports cars.

Angel Ibrights do make a big difference. They're great. For the record though, I have OSS headlights now - took the ibrigshts off.

Love it

Thanks man.

Thanks so much man! No such thing as perfect when youre a perfectionist/obsessive. Haha. That's the problem with this hobby .

Any plans for new rims? I really like the colour but haven't a hard time picturing dakar with a set of rims that aren't black. Not sure what a set of LMs or LM-Rs would look like on this colour.

Actually gunmetal looks AMAZING on Dakar. If you flip through some of my earlier pics you'll see my car on a set of loaner gunmetal 18s. they looked amazing. though, as to my car, Im pretty committed to a black and yellow theme. I doubt I'd go in another direction. I've been considering Morr vs8.2, dpe sp-sc16's and hre p40sc - all super concave.

where can I buy those new headlights you got there?

the headlights are OSS.

Reach out to Luis @ OSS (305) 903-2438.

Great guy to deal with. and the product is very high quality

kiln · 07-05-2012, 11:00 AM

esquire,

on your headlights did you go with flat black or semigloss blackout?

Powerbeast · 07-05-2012, 11:33 AM

I will second the motion, gunmetal looks great on DY!
