Should be on either this weekend or next. I just want to make sure the fronts clear my wheels, which they should...But you know how that crap goes.

Damn that looks really good! I love the color combo you got. You should post a few pictures showing the whole side of the car, both the front and rear wheels together.

Well, the car is still stuck in the garage otherwise I would. Otherwise the best photos of it are on the first page. And my garage is pretty small so I can't stand back any further than the wheel pic to get some pictures.

Those rotors look beat up. Can you turn them (if its even needed) and I'm sure new rotors are $$$.

It's just surface rust.

Those brakes look really good! Should be an amazing car when you're done.

Thanks!
Although I will probably send them out to be powder coated eventually. The paint isn't curing like it should, a month later and a cycle in the oven and it is still really soft. Actually behind the spoke on my wheel is a pretty nice gash.
Intercooler came from ETS, they however forgot to anodize it. Should be back next week or the week after and then it is down to picking a turbo and putting the new engine in.
I am thinking a Borg Warner S258/S259 or 35HTA...Leaning towards the BW now.
Oh and my Nardi steering wheel came in as well.
