Fog deletes will not fit anyway. The shape is different. At one poinit, I purchased a custome-made one-off fiberglass insert for the driver's side where the CAI goes into the fender. I had plans to cut out all that metal and force-feed the CAI. At the same time I would'a had some pretty neat, custom, functional body-work.
The insert tunred out to have been designed for a none R/T or ACR nose section. I was bummed and had to sell it to a certain, very cute redhead with a Miata.

Do you have pics of those?

O they fit great but you bought 00-01 ones. The 02 ones are designed the same shape.

thanks for the info on the fog deletes SlvrACR. i might have to look into getting some of those. On another note, i got the car aligned today. (actually i dit it myself at the local college auto shop) I might have to get some different camber adjusting bolts, cause these suck. its soo dificult to get the eccentric in the right place, hold the wheel, and tighten the nut without changing the camber. anyways... i got it set to like -1.4degrees in the back, a huge difference from the -3.4 it was at. lol unfortunately i had to temporarily remove the air dam to get it up onto the rack, and still had to use extra boards. i guess its the price you pay for a sexy looking car.... I guess i'll work on modifying/fixing it, now that it is off, and i can get a better look at it. hopefully the heat gun, fiberglass, and scissors should do the trick, otherwise i might have to try an Si lip, or make my own. i definately want to keep some sort of lip to keep the super low look, but maybe something a little more subtle, that doesnt scrape on every driveway.

To adjust camber with bolts there is a airbag that goes between the strut and wheel that you inflate til you get the correct setting you then can tighten the bolts down. This way you dont have to hold the tire and guess.

Good info on the fog deletes man. Thanks.

Yeah, those bolts are a PITA. I hope Mike gave you teh stockers because he had a ton of stuff for the car that I handed over with it.

nope, no stock bolts, but i might just get the mopar bolts, theyre soo simple to use, just a bolt thats a few tenths smaller.

Those Eiback units have that silly "lobe" on them. I hated them after my fourth or fifth alignment over a 6 months period. One good pothole and BAM..bye bye alignment...

yeah i just proved that point last night. one trip to stockton, and bye byr alignment. its back to where it was after no more than two days.

Next time you head to Stockton, hit me up. I'm right there in Tracy and the garage is always open.
I'd love to hear the ACR purr again with no top-end clicky-clicky noises.

Linky please...

Oh man, I missed out on this thread, but I'm really happy to see that little beast back on the road!

Agreed with the majority, the old rims were better looking, hope you swapped 'em back, cuz they're also a lot lighter!

Grambo, I threw the mats, wheel cover, coons, and shift knob in there. I couldn't think of anything else to add really, you set that car up so perfect!

holy camber issues in the rear batman!

Yeah, Eibach camber bolts and Sportlines...its REALLY low...

Dude, you bought and SRT? Nice...I did too. See you at the Charger forums...

Yep, I was all fine and happy here in Austin when I moved, then I met a bunch of guys with EVOs and STIs, and I missed having a 5-speed with boost... so I popped over to Florida and picked up a nasty little Stage 3 SRT-4 to join in the boost fun. =]

Congrats on the Charger man, beauty!

Your a friggin pimp dude.

I like the new wheels better, and I <3 the lowness AND the negative camber in the rear. Looks great and I wish mine was that low again

I should have test-fit that piece on my sisters SXT before I went grinding on it just to see the difference. Vice grips worked well enough on the core support to bend it back a little to fit the tube sticking out of it I'm working on incorporating it into the resurrection of my original R/T bumper that will be in ONE piece.... not two lol. But the Miata is taking precedence

Glad to see the car up and going again!


Hey, if ya ever ya sell those wheels, I know of another ACR they'd look good on.

Negative camber has its place in certain applications... with FWD drag cars, it helps so when the rear pushes down and lifts the front a bit on launch, it balances out the tire footprint.

On a RWD drift car *I think* it helps break loose the tires to initiate the drift.

On a car driven for pure handling, I can't imagine why you would want it.

Someone should post pictures of both the Eibach and Mopar camber bolts for comparison.

Nice ride man...

It sure is...
