Loving the car, it looks absolutely amazing. The color just makes it stand out even more than it does, but in a good way. Corner carvers are what we love the most. Looking forward to updates!
Thanks! Good to see you guys on here, recognize you from my E60 M5 days

Not sure if I said this before, but awesome looking car. Plus the fact that you actually use it is cool.

My favorite build so far! How are you liking the JRZ's? I know you've said you haven't had a chance to test them out at the track yet though.

Do you plan on changing the spring rates to something stiffer?

Thank you so much! It really means a lot!

I love them, Only had a chance to drive them around town or on the freeways. I've gone through a lot of cars over the last few years with all sorts of different types of coilovers. From KW's V1 all the way up to their clubsports, Bilsteins on my M3, Various Japanese brands. And the JRZ hands down is the best thing I've ever ridden on. In the past I've always known coilovers to be overly stiff, harsh and rough rides. The JRZ's are very planted but they almost glide over any imperfections in the road. I drove over some train tracks at 50 mph and I didn't even feel them. Cant wait to see how they do at the track!

Looks nice! Are those liquid silver or another color?
Thanks! They're actually finished in Fog. Kind of a matte gunmetal, cool effect the color changes from silver in the sun and very dark in the shade. The 18" FF15's I believe only come in Black since its technically a track application.

That's great to know. I'm seriously considering these wheels and was wondering what "fog" really looked like on a car.

Thanks!

Looking good. Have to ask with the bigger contact patch, are you running anything more than factory for brake fluid or Pads? Looks like you still have the stock rotors ?

Thanks! Brakes are all stock everything except for the fluids. I'm using Torque RT700. Once the pads wear out i'll probably go with something more for the track.

Loving the way the Ultras fit. Any pics of those 19x11s on?
Thanks! Do you mean the Forgelines? They're still being built should be completed this Friday, we actually changed the sizing to 19x10.5

How much camber were you able to get with the plates?
