Thanks Sammy! How are you brotha? It's been a while! I was planning on going with a less aggressive offset anyway. Just so happens that the collision forced my hand to do it sooner. I still have the lip and bumper. I'll be saving those for track days.
Verbal Update: Scored some DB8 Rear seats Christmas Eve. I'll update once installed. I couldn't take the road noise cruising, I may need to replace the RR bearing again, but the seat was to cheap to pass up.
Now I just need to sell some wheels to buy Brice's SE's

Tony, it may be a bolt on for the 99-00's. For me ( 96-98), so far, I've removed the rear seat bracket and instead of cutting off the center tab on the DB8 rear I added a slit into my rear seat frame. I also removed the lower seat bracket that allowed the 60/40 split previously to make room for the new full rear of the DB8 upper. I'll have pics by the weekend.

Evasive motorsports in santa fe springs is a nice shop to visit and they always have great cars hanging around.
Nemos garage in ontario is a small shop but they carry many brands and have a few cars in the back worth checking out.

Happy New Year Everyone.
We'll be awaiting your posts.
Not for the JDM rears sir. I'm having a whole different experience that what you've mentioned.
I get asked that often, my engine was clean the day I bought it. I did further enhance it by cleaning it with some industrial cleaner/ degreaser. Oddly enough my motor was really clean when I purchased it.
As for my back seats, I found some foam the wife was trashing and sliced it up. 2in sections. Which later made its way into 1in strips. In the photo you can see the raised edges, i have yet to sort those brackets.

GMG!!!!
Horrible. It's supposed to be "track kah" but driving it on the streets, a back seat really reduces NVH. LOL thanks ninja!
Happy New Year Sammy!
Lovely Joe.

Went to Chuckwalla Valley Raceway this past Saturday. Got there at 4pm just in time for 1 session. I got out of my daily civic to grab a ViP armband (im good friends with the event organizers) and jumped into my brother's mild evo 8 MR and set a lap of 1:59.83 missing the fastest time of the weekend by just 0.14 seconds set by a Porsche cup car i believe.
Party'd til midnight then went back home lol
sorry no decent pics of the car i tracked but it looks like any other evo out there with gawdy body kit and some aero

Well I got rear ended yesterday on I-4. The kid was on his phone when he hit me but thankfully we were going slow and just dented the rear bump and chipped some paint off it. I popped out the dent on the rear bumper just going to leave it how it is. I just finished getting the interior cleaned on Monday lol.

Yea I'm tired of driving on I-4 to and from work each day. I'll probably look for a new shell later on down the road. I'm not a fan of the green and tan interior combo lol.
