Post by: SHODYOU on April 04, 2014, 11:03:06 PM
My 2011 SHO
Visual stuff: H&R's, 255/35 Hankook V12s, PlastiDipped grill, Lamin-x "smoked" taillight tint, PlastiDipped taillight surrounds, PlastiDipped lower rear reflectors, painted calipers with SHO logo on front, silver painted brackets, and black rotor hats.
5/16" front and 7/16" rear spacers.

PlastiDipped "shaver" in grill and lowered with short 255/35 (27") tires.

Can see wheel fitment in this angle...

Here's a few of tails... close up of PlastiDip work and you can see wheel fitment with the spacers.

Ok I'm tinting my tail lights. How did you do it ?

Looks great I want wheel spacers too as much as possible. Are they safe ? I'd want some made out of steel that bolt on to the hub and the wheel bolts to the spacer.

I basically just followed the directions from the Lamin-x kit, but im actually a professional vinyl graphic installer, what I do for a living until I graduate, so I didn't use the cheap squeegee or knife it came with. I used a felt squeeg to keep from scratching it and a good blade to trim it out.
Then I just taped everything off and laid down 3-4 coats of PlastiDip. 


As far as spacers, yes they are safe... been on my car for over 20k miles. They are just slip on spacers, I still engage 7-8 threads of the rear studs which is more than enough. Just tq properly and you'll never have a problem.

Great read for people who dont truly understand how the wheels are held on

Preciate it... I dont think im good enough with a spray can to make em both even lol.
Im def good enough to drop some vinyl since I do it everyday... so I chose that route.
