Nice! Andy's iForged uses Motorsport-Tech custom adapters -- they are awesome, best quality I've seen.

Note that I didn't use the Motorsport-Tech nuts, the OEM offer more surface area and I felt "safer" (at least in my head) using OEM nuts to secure the adapter to the rotor.


^^ Thanks

If the oem nuts will sit flush, I will put them on for sure. Thanks for the tip Ed.:good:

The built quality is pretty impressive indeed
 
Looks like the oem studs protrude above the 19mm spacer, right? If so, you should be able to tell how much it extended pass the 19mm and if your "shorten" oem studs will seat flush with the spacer?
 
Yep, posted the info in another thread yesterday

"OEM stud needs to be shortened by 0.21" or 5.33mm in order to install 19mm adapters/spacers."

Just wanted to know how the carbon fiber vinyl wrapping is holding up. When you wrapped all the chrome accents outside did you just do it right over the chrome or did you strip the chrome off first? Also how does it hold up against rain and going through car washes? Especially the door handles cause they are handled everyday. Thinking about getting my chrome wrapped in cf but don't want it to start peeling and coming off. Thanks!

Almost 2 years my rails and rear trim are wrapped with 3m dinoc vinyl. No issues. Still looks like new after 2 WI winters. I'm using touch free automatic car washes all the time. I didn't strip the chrome.

Did a quick photo-shoot 2 days ago before the alignment was done. As you can see there is -4.0 camber on rear right, the shop already aligned everything, so it's now only -1.9 degrees:disapointed:. I'm going to miss that look on the rear. Big props to Handy Andy and thanks to Andrew:good::good::good:

Wow, definitely one of my favorite FX's. The blue body, orange calipers and wheel all complement each other. The Hankook RH06's also add something and give a nice aggressive look.

Only thing I'm not a fan of are the lug nuts=)
 
Big ups to you Zebra. The car looks perfect in every way.

The drop is spot on, the wheels fit perfectly, and the BBK is just the cherry on top..
