Ole "4 Play" getting some BLING.

3M Di-Noc carbon fibre stripes going on. Front is done and soon the roof will be finished. Pinstripes are Charcoal Met, on edges, along with Bowtie.

I love 'em...especially that they're not symmetrical, in terms of width...very creative. Can't wait to see the finished product.

And great hood scoop...you made that one functional? I tried to find that one on-line, but I'm not sure if I found that exact one.

SS fan: Soon as I wear these tors down, some more, gonna put some 255x40x18 , either Nitto 555's or 245x40x18 Kumo Esta XS [like the heavy hitter Autocross guys use]. Only got 17K on stock ones, so far. Been lightin em up every chance I get, so soon I'll be ready for new tires.
Like the "Hardcore" bar huh? Yeah, about as much rear stick as you can get with that bar. "Moon"

17K, you should do like me, when I got stg1, I smoked them turds, just pulling out of the dealership, I drove straight to discount tire and traded them in, they liked them and gave me 50.00 a piece, I was happy, they had 20K on them. Did you see these ?

Where you live these are new and the racy crowd love them. https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/deleted-threads-41/nitto-nt05-tires-almost-new-cheap-39517/

Oh yea that nitto 555 is narrow RobbSS is running them 265x35 on a 8", they looked good to me but check with him.

Yep, saw em. I'm probably gonna go with the Kumos. They don't make a 255x40x18, but they are sticky,sticky. I don't put a lot of miles on the SS, as I work out of the house, and don't commute, so they will work just fine.
My Autocross friends, turned me onto the Kumo's. They highly recommend them. "Moon"

You always seem to be right, We will be awaiting the report. No kidding, compared to the first bar I owned, the Hardcore is crazy sweet, thanks again. If you didn't keep telling me I would not own one now. I was happy when I took the other one off, my car quit pushing in the turns, the stock suspension was working right again. What you said kept popping up in my head, so I ordered it. You and John were right it works WITH our suspension, it doesn't change the way they turn, it greatly enhances it. Awesome.
