black and gold looks alright still!
what color you painting the car? |
that looks nice still,
how long did it take you to do that?... |
Wow...thats nice. Post a D.I.Y
|
car is going flat anodized bronze
took me awhile as i was trying to strip them myself.. finally got tired of that and paid $10 each to have them sandblasted.. then i just spraybombed the lip, masked it off, spraybombed the spokes, pulled off masking, and clearcoated the whole front at once this is the... 3th set i've fully completed doing it this way.. my winters were done same way :p |

the winters are 14x5.5 et42 i think? the new ones are 15x7, et34 with 205/50/15 falken azenis fills out the wheels well perfectly without having to roll fenders, even on h&r sport springs with the drop oince i get my suspension figured out i plan to make it out to toronto for a meet sometime.. still haven't made it :/ (and by figure out suspension i'm on h&r sport, oem shocks, and i'm hearing a bit of a clinking at random times going over bumps... considering adjustable shocks and possible coilover sleeves...) |
