Maybe i missed it but are you running any spacers or longer studs? Or did you just bolt them up and go? Usually people who widen them space them out some as well but from your stance to me it doesnt appear so which is nice. Looks awesome!

What's wrong with it? Instead of scraping the headers, you scrape a cheap piece of metal. Rally cars and offroad vehicles use them all the time. It's why our K-member is lower than the oil pan, to protect it, and it does.
I plan to get some stainless long tubes and tweak them with a cherry blossom tip to tuck them up higher if need be.
Are the SLP's stainless? If so and you have a torch you might consider tweaking them as well.

Just a heads-up fellas.
My wheels looked like they were chromed when I got them back. Apparently they stripped the clear coat off and put a high polish finish on the wheels. The only downfall is I need to have my front wheels stripped now to even-out the appearence, not mention I'll have to polish them once every other week.

Very nice. They make the car look so much meaner that it already did. As far as the clear coat, it's amazing how shiney these rims are once the clear coat is stripped off. It's easy to do too. If you plan on doing the fronts ThunderBolt1, checkout your local parts store for a stripper called Klean-Strip Aircraft Remover. Funny name but this stuff kicks butt. Just make sure to wear gloves and protect your tires. It's thick and doesn't run much but is much easier if the tires are off of the rims. Leave it on for 10 minutes or so and you can see the old clear coat bubbling up. Wipe it off and rinse well. A few coats and it's done. Nice shiney, polished aluminum underneath.
