but im polish and drive a ford, so what do i know.

The thin coating on the IC doesn't make any sort of performance difference, not anything remotely measurable anyway. But yeah, polish+ford=aidsauce

I was getting more rub than the boy scouts at Michael Jacksons house.

I did some minor changes since thoes pics were taken. I now have Tein S tech springs with adjustable shocks on the way. I'm running Yokohama Runway 205/50/15 car still sits pretty low and I'm getting a tiny bit of rubbing when making aggressive turns but the ride is amazing, I can crank the wheel all the way to the left or right and I actually grip the road. ---- tuck, real performance cars arent slammed. I have maybe 1 finger width gap between the tires and fender but since the theels are wide and the tires stick out a bit it still looks really good.

I'll take some more update pics this week.

In the case of kamilk69 vs. intercooler paint, I find that the stealthness of the intercooler far outweighs all, if any negative effects of a ching chong meow intercooler. I sentence you to THE CHAIR!! :1
