I'm sure the GR 4pots could be made to fit a GD, and they are "only" ~$3600

Yea, that's what they just told me. The rears for the 07 are the same just silver instead of Gold. I'll just get mine painted to match at some point.

Did you take off the bumper to pull the headlights? Going to swap my morimoto retrofit housings in, in the next week or so.

And good thing u got the 35 watt. I had the 55 watt burn my projector and make it more yellow than the other.

Conti dw summers are one of the best rain performing tires. Mine grip better than the dws i had on previously.

They are on par with michelin pilot ss. But the pss are more stiff and better dry handling. Where as the dw excels in wet handling. So good its scary that they dont bust loose lol

Yeah, i'm still debating, researching the options, either a max summer like the DW, or an all season like the RE970. Decisions, decisions...

Ive had the Re970 too. It is extremely loud and wears pretty fast. Handles good without fuss in the dry but meh.....ok in the rain and horrible in the snow.
Not a big fan of the bridgestones unless you get something like the re 11.

Yeah I did haha, mainly just to see what it would be like without the bumper... but it was so much easier to get out. Yeah I heard it'd be better to go with 35 for the reason. Don't want Yellow **** to deminish the beautiful temp. Pulled them apart and painted today and will be reassembling tomorrow and installing Hid's! Excided!
