I have some other stuff im getting together. Hopefully the pictures will help people out with their next mods. I had a hard time finding images of certain things when trying to figure out whats things would fit and what it would look like.
The Torque Solutions exhaust hangers will be here today! The exhaust is really shakey, these should do the trick.
Also going to order some spacers... 10mm all around.
Washed it last night and snapped a few

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the kind words!
Its funny, I was soooooo stressing the tire choice! When I bolted on the first one and lowered it down I was like ____, I could have got a wider tire! You live... you learn
1stOne - Nikon D300 body & all kind of good glass! I was using a Nikkor 105mm F2.8 VR for the last 2 shots.
Superpickel - I will probably just get the spacers on ebay. The H&R trak with the extended studs seems to be the way to go.

blk07tC - thanks man, the plate is shopped. I was removing the rear emblem in photoshop to see what it would look like and I just went ahead and did the plate
jayjayk89 - thanks! I got the wheels from wheeldude.com for $950 shipped. Great guys over there!
I finally got the Torque Solutions exhaust hangers in the mail yesterday! The exhaust was soooo loose...no me gusta. There is absolutely no movement in the exhaust at all now. The hangers were a pain in the ___ to install, so bring the lube and eat your Wheaties!
The photo of the kit on the website only shows 4 hangers but it includes all 5.
Old vs. New
Before & After Hangers

Also a video of the exhaust before the hangers. (The video doesnt do the exhaust justice)

How do embed the youtube videos??

^use [youtube][/youtube] tags with the hangers would you say there is increased vibration in the cabin as well as increased noise? I have the descendant exhaust installed and I ordered the exhaust hangers but I havn't installed the exhaust hangers yet.

Nothing like the motor mount video I saw on here. There is no shake on start up or when you turn the engine off. If it were anything like the motor mount, I would remove them. I'm in stop and go traffic every morning and I didn't notice much of anything in terms of annoying vibrations.
I tried all kinds of tags to embed the videos, but no luck.

Figured I would add these photos in this thread, keep all my photos in one place!
Picked up some Nitto NT-05 275/35/18. (wheels: 18x9.5 ET44)
Got them put on after work yesterday, was 99% sure they were gonna be fine but was still a lil nervous. Fit fine with zero problems! Got a 1 finger gap all the way around, no rubbing at all!
Put it through the gauntlet this morning, hwy on ramps at high speed and everything is good to go! The grip is absolutely insane
