thanks for the positive comments...

whitey... good luck finding these wheels as far as i have seen you can only get the gunmedal with the polished lip.

-16v-... you said it. lol

cynikal... i agree they do need another couple coats, but i was in a rush and i thought it looked okay for the time being. i also didn't know how the paint was going to cure in 35 degree weather so im not buggin about how light they are. during the day when the sun hits them its a really bright orange and i kinda like it. I also used the OEM corner lights and you can tell what is painted and what is factory amber. i will purchase all new clear lights and re paint those for a better effect with no bubbles or pit marks from 13 years of driving.

as for the battery you can get all the specs from batterymart.com or this link
http://www.batterymart.com/bat...680MJ

i bought the MJ model because of the metal case its built in. the pc-680 is 1lbs lighter. i couldn't get the pc-680 a quickly as the mj so i bought the mj.
