Went to the junkyard and yanked the Aspire swap. While I was there, I got a set of these! Enkei rims from a Toyota Corolla! So, I did a mock-up. What does everyone think? I got a few replies, but I thought I'd post here 'cause I have been, so, here it is!

I got tires! Toyo Proxes T1R's. 195/45 R14 @ treadepot.com for $336 shipped.
I swear I'm gonna get all giddy like a school-girl when these things get put together! Now time for the Mother's on the rims. Not on the gold, just the rim.
Oh, I'm considering painting the bumpers red & removing the side strip. Any thoughts?Last edited by DriverOne; 05-21-2010, 06:01 AM.In love with a MadScientist!:thumbright:

A lot of fans for heat dissipation on computer motherboard use bearing, if it fails again might want to try to adapt one to the pelter device.
Maybe even use a small 12V PV panel to drive the fan(s).
PV to drive the pelter would be too big.'93 Blue 5spd 230K(down for clutch and overall maintanence)
