One thing I would suggest is know where you plan to get it all installed before you get your box (if you aren't doing it yourself). I had my rims and my springs ready to put on but because I didn't set up an appointment with like the only shop in my area that could install my springs I coudn't get them installed before my road trip to Austin. I wasn't going to be the guy with the big rims and even bigger gap between my tires so I just rolled stock to Austin......
It kinda sucked but whatever. Just have everything lined up so you can drive it from the dealership straight to all of the places you need to go to get it hooked up.

WOW, you guys sure have a good start on your car...before you even own it! We bought ours and immediately started buying stuff, but we waited till we had the car. I wish I could've had a room full of goodies before we got ours. LOL. Parts ALWAYS look better sitting in their packages "waiting" for their perspective jobs. Reminds me of going into a speed shop and "drooling" over all the parts...

yes, funny haha... but you have no idea untl you compare one of these to one of my old kyokugens or even the stock one. i mean, its rediculous to think youre really going to notice a difference, but ywhen you compare them side by side, all 20 of each, theres a drastic difference weight wise.

Well let's see, my 06 BSP xB is on order and hopefully be here in a few weeks. I already have the following waiting for it, when it comes in (I hope it is very soon, going nuts):

Cargo cover
Cargo mat
Cargo liner
Front and rear floor mats
Front and rear door sills
Bumper applique

Not too much modifying the engine, intake and maybe an exhaust, stock suspension, and prob upgrade rims. Trying to keep performance mods to bare minimun, cause I already have a 1993 RX-7 that is Single Turbo and fully modded which cost a ton of money. Don't want to fall into that again.

I gotta ask, do you have a picture of this "JDM license plate relocator"? Or is it the one being sold from that group in Hawaii?.. I just had my front bumper redone, so no more holes or divots for the plate, I do want to be legal, so a front plate is a must, I just don't want it screwed right up front, looking outta place and all.

Thanks

With those spacers and shims you'll be set...
Nice shift **** too, similar to mine.
