Default New(er) pics of my TI.

Here she sits in winter mode. It did about 3k miles this winter, all in snowy conditions. Did better than I expected, and looked awesome doing it. I DID get stuck when I forgot it's only 5" off the ground, and tried to drive over a drift

The pics of it in the snow are at Jay Peak, VT. The dry ones are in NJ before I put it back to summer mode. Opinions?

Thanks Jess.


Forgot to add, the front bumper trim was stolen, that's why it's missing Also, turns out a rustoleum red (bright red?) is what I used to paint the roof rack feet, and it's a near-perfect match to Hellrot. I was shocked

Thanks, it's my favorite part of the car She tucked those 235 45 17's SO much better than the 215 45 17's on it now Owell, The 235's rubbed slightly. The rear so tucked makes me want coilovers for the front, so I can go even lower.

Couldn't stand the damn US plate on the front. Made the car look like, well, I can't post the word on the forum I'd rather run none, but NJ requires a front plate. Haven't gotten hassled yet for it. Hoping since it's the same letters/numbers they won't bother me.

And yep, VHT for the lights. IIRC 6 coats on the tails, 4 on the headlights and fogs, 6 on the corners. Fogs are getting re-done.

Looks pretty clean. I personally am not a fan of smoked corners, at least not that smoked. Still, diggin the hellrot and the blacked out kidneys. Keep it up

So It looks like I'm picking up some Millies 18" mm2's, $180. I'll still have 17's for the track, don't worry ET40 Front, ET45 rear. 8" front, 9" rear I think, gotta find the specs online.
