Great rig, I like the monochromatic look, it works well with your color. What rims are those? They look good. How is the rear spoiler held on? Do you have to drill to attatch it ?

DISCLAIMER: This is my Newby post, so I can ask stupid newby questions here...
So todayI'm bored before I go to work this morning, and decide I can conquer the torsion bars before work.
I measured before at 21 1/2"
Cranked bars 2.5 times to 23"
Drove around block remeasured 22"
Does this sound right?
I'll remeasure tonight after the commute.

So I added 1 more turn on the bars to 3.5
before I started 21.5"
now at 3.5 turns 22.5"
I'm sure the ALPHA is a little heavier in the front, so is this about right on turns?
I got 1" lift on the front now which is where I wanted to be...

They're 16x8 10 offset so they stick out a little bit more than OEM. I'm using theOEM rubber. I got them from a local shop here in Fort Lauderdale.
If your interested in them, email me jtpmedic@cs.com
I'm looking at going a different direction, so give me an excuse to change again...
