It's a piece of bar-stock aluminum put on a lathe. Nothing more, nothing less. I default to UMI for reasons some of you know, but there is nothing wrong with WS6Store stuff, either

I have heard good things about UMI. When I start doing my suspension, they will be making some money off me haha. Also dropped my car off to be tinted. I'll post some pics later when I get it back.

They have the best deals on UMI parts too! At least that's what I found back when I did my suspension build.

Tint looks good, I need to do the TA eventually. Did they go around the dot matrix or were they able to lay it without it bubbling up there?

They said the further they went up the hard it was for the tint to stick. They got some, u can see where little pieces of tint got laid and they couldnt get a perfect cut. But still looks really good.

Thank you, I spent alittle more then I planned but I know have 3M lifetime warranty. So basically of anything goes wrong, take it to a 3m tint shop and it's fixed for free.

Alright it's been a while. But trying to get a deal on aid without buying a new one but I feel the prices have shot up on those things. But in other good news, I am buying a set of SLP Chrome ZR1 wheels on Thursday. They are my favorite wheels besides CCW which I can't afford. I'm paying less then 100 a wheel but I need to get some tires now.

Picked up my wheels today. They we all really dirty so it's gonna take some time to get the all nice and clean. Here is a pic of the one fully clean wheels I just got done with. Took me about 2 hours.
