What have you done to your P5 today?

[Teeson]

Thanks man. Those look to be E46R extended shrouds.
I think You've convinced me to go retro..

Car looks great, thats a great clean bodied electric blue. Ever thought of spacing those front wheels just a little?

 

[RicoP5]

ah very nice retros indeed

 

[dxaveP5]

yea I plan to get spacers since I don't wanna spend much money on new wheels.
And I might change my shrouds in the future to the E-55R shrouds, I want something new.

i have the Tokico HP Blue Strut/Spring combo.
I think it's sold on Protegegarage website. I got it from a member new several years ago.
Tire size is just 205/45/17's on the MSP wheels

just curious, why not the d2s version?
seems that lots of people prefer the H1 version more :/

drove it to work. now at 200100 miles. need to change my control arms this weekend they are both old and clunking big time and my sway bar bushings.

Does my fuel pump/sender housing look as bad as those ^up there? I guess if I don't get any fuel smell I won't have to look, and in my mind it will always look prestine. lol In other news I finally got lowering springs, Eibach pro-kit NIB for $125. Thanks again Nate. Now I only need to find the time to install them and get an alignment.

 

[RicoP5]

pro kit is not bad at all. have had it on my p5 for 2 or so yrs no problems

You're doing it right. (2thumbs)

You looked like a little kid with a huge box of candy bars when Nate gave those to you. Haha

 

[RicoP5]

< needs aligment too after all tie rods will be new this weekend.

 

[JDM_Pro5]

< alignment scheduled friday. Rear tires are balding prematurely on the inside and outside while the middle tread looks great
