i think blue means like ovaling out the stock holes....he actually welded the adjustable portion to the Z for the coilovers.

What'dya cut those slots with? Jig saw and lots of filing/finishing? Wow those slots are clean. Nice work and far from ghetto. I had no idea the tower metal was that thick. Hmmmm, beeefy.

No, those arent the stock strut towers. They are Arizona Z cars, camber plates that I had welded in. Took alot of work to get them to look "stock" like that, and no external welds and what not.
Heres the info from azzcars site:
Camber Plate Set
Allows under-hood adjustment of camber, replaces upper strut mount with monoball (Hi strength teflon lined) bearing assembly and Laser cut steel plate. Includes hardware. Must be used with coilover kits and springs above.
Needs to be welded to the top of the shock tower after you have cut away
where the stock 3 studs from the upper insulator mounted.
Price: $99.00 per corner
