Thanx for the welcome , I know it does....one minute your just putting on some rims and lowering...then next minute your importing a whole s*** load of body parts..somehow I think those maybe's are gonna get to me and happen in due time.

Yeah, that piece that you have in your pictures is designed to fit in the P5 front. I was just trying to prevent you from having weeks of fabrication just for it to look correct.

Can't wait to see the final..

Yup I forget to mention, I will be the FIRST person on the island to do this conversion and I will be the only 3.5 msp(well lookalike) in the island. There is a 03 msp but no 3.5.


Know you guys like jdm so here is a little pic or it to wet your taste buds:
