Is that just bad fitment on the hood or did you do the washer thing?

It's the bad fitment, but I guess it passes for using the washers. So it's not really that bad.

Thanks for all the nice comments!! I have been searching for the "perfect" wheel for such a long time.... finally deciding upon the OZs. I'm so glad I did. Plus their SO LIGHT! I autocross her so the weight loss was great! I can't wait to race on them.

Thanks guys and gals for the great comments!

Not yet. I was supposed to race on them yesterday but it turned out to be a pretty stormy day and didn't go. I was pretty bummed... I really wanted to see how these tires were going to outperfom my old potenza bricks, hahaha. But no worries, I'll let you know when I get back from Deals Gap, aka The Dragon, how they grip when they're nice and hot ;)

Thanks... as far as the lugs are concerned... I'm waiting for a set of good ones. I refuse to go to autozone and buy some, hahaha. I'm waiting to save up some more money, especially after the wheel purchase.

I was thinking of tinting the mirrors and have the vinyl to do it but just haven't decided to do it or not. The tails are going to stay as is. Two reasons - One, the red in the back really does make the black pop not only in real life but in pictures A LOT, and two, everybody and their momma blacks out their tails and as someone who bought a vehicle that is so popular I try to do as much as I can to be different.

I say do the turn signals. it's a lot of black, but i like the murdered out look. seeing yours kind of makes me wish i bought a bsp tC. i almost bought the ultraleggeras in the darker silver color, but the offset wasn't quite what i wanted. now i can see they were a great choice though. anyway, i really like your tC. keep up the good work.

i totally agree on the tails, plus i just like the red. if anything i would said take the tails aprt and paint the housing black, giving it a deeper red. but stock still looks hot. i'm not a big fan of tinted stocks, however i do like tinted TYCs. but yeah with that look i'd tint the mirrors and the orange in the headlight housing, just with vinyl so you can just peel it off. nice tC tho.
