i have the same rims as you off a zri with 315s i still have my bump stops but i had to grind them down to be a bit narrower and massaged the inner fenders with my favorite tool the dead blow, maybe they didnt need it but it feels good to hit something!

i gotta say im jealous of the ceramic engine bay, never heard of it before props!

Thanks. No hassle about the plates on all of our f bodies. It meets Illinois law, visible from the front when approached, min height requirement, and permanently mounted. I think the cops see we made an effort to have it on and don't hassle us. My local cops usually just give us the thumbs up or wave.

Nope. My sons car is put away for the season and on storage insurance. Think he drives his less than I do mine. I appreciate that he takes good care of it and respects it.

Awe come on man, never even got to hit the Nitrous, although the second gear 200 foot black stripes are still there. Should be fun next year...... see what it will do all dialed in.
