I didn't fill in the front or side emblem holes, because I'm putting on a new Mazda front emblem, and I'm getting "savannah rx7" side emblems for it....
82transam- Yup, I'm running 195/60 Azenis.... Real nice tire... no squirm, good grip, and good wet traction.... I'd really like something wider, but the way the car transitions on a tire this skinny is NICE.....
I did talk to a Falken Rep earlier this week though... He says that they're coming out with a new Azeni this winter, and that when they do, we can expect more sizes... I asked about 14"s, and he said definitely more than one size....

Yea those are the tires i'll be getting for my project car once the time gets closer. I've had the LE wheels sitting here for a couple years waiting for me to work on them. I'm probably gonna go the gunmetal center and polished lip like you have done. Did you paint them or have them powdercoated? I'm glad to hear the tires have good wet grip, that was one of my major concerns, I like to have a well rounded (pardon the pun) tire that grips good wet and dry.

Did they wet sand or buff it after painting?

What's the thought process behind the hood vent?

Honestly, I dropped the hood off at a local Hot Rod guy's shop... He asked what I wanted... I told him "vents"... He drew in the dirt with his finger... "How about something like this?" I said, "Sure, that looks neat"... "okay, come back later today"... As I started walking out, I hear him take a cutting wheel to my hood... Came back later, and I had that vent... LOL
