Mike, I know this may sound like a silly question, but why are you leaving the good wheels on while they do this? Once they have the measurements of where you wanted to be, it just seems like you would have put crap wheels or the stockers back on while they're doing all this modding to make sure your good wheels don't get damaged accidentally? :ugh2:

I think he needs to worry about getting this thing actually in his driveway before he does anything else to it. :bowrofl:

I hope this thread suits the question...what is the dollar amount this "White Dragon" project is at if you don't mind disclosing. Serious question for those hoping to follow the build. So please don't if ignore or think a troll of me as you and this site has done....

Thanks!

Kingbaby 02-15-2012 02:14 PM

You like the undertone

LoL

bullitt5897 02-15-2012 02:33 PM

I personally do not want to disclose the total amount of this build or to discuss my financials on a public forum. Thank you for asking in an appropriate thread. I will say including the car the budget has surpassed $120k

Kingbaby 02-15-2012 02:39 PM

Cool beans man

Let's get back to the topic Mike, when's your widebody mods will be finished? :tup:

bullitt5897 02-15-2012 03:49 PM

All thats left is to wrap up the rear bumper. Finish modding the side skirts and then to redo the front fenders to allow for larger/wider tires.

Once that is complete in the next week or so. The car is back at GTM getting the final touches before coming home :tup:!!!!

What size you're planning with?

Sound good, i'm wondering if you're gonna slap on some stripes at the sides as the wide look will look too plain..

I'm glad your build is almost done, i still remember reading your thread and announcing the white dragon and it's already 2012 now. keep the Z bro :tup:

bullitt5897 02-15-2012 04:51 PM

I have plenty of vinyl so I may add some clean stripes ;)

GaleForce 02-20-2012 08:43 PM

Looking at pictures with gritty kitty brings up old nightmares! The progress is looking good :tup:

JB1 03-10-2012 12:23 AM

Curious to see the final result!

Kingbaby 03-10-2012 12:54 AM

should be done

gsxr750 03-10-2012 01:11 AM

I hope that they have not used fiberglass strainded or body filler on the transition of the ABS plastic bumpers, if they did it will not bond well, and will eventually come lose and you'll develope cracks it any areas with a large amount of that filler. The main problem with ABS plastic is that no type of 2 part fiberglass filler or even 2 part epoxy resin really bond to it, in strength tests you can actually pull either fibergass resin or 2 part epoxy resin with slight pressure from a putty knife or screw driver.

The only way you can successfully use these fillers is for small cracks or imperfections, the only way you can bound extra material to ABS plastic, is with a plastic welding process.

simota1 03-10-2012 01:24 AM

^^^^ that isnt a stock rear bumper its a zele bumper which is pretty much fiberglass.... should be fine... :tup: i agree with you with the whole plastic bumper and fiberglass does not bond very well no matter wat....

gsxr750 03-10-2012 02:21 AM

Agree as long as its fiberglass bumper your fine then.

GaleForce 03-10-2012 08:02 AM

Need an update! :happydance:

bullitt5897 03-10-2012 08:48 AM

They have finished the car for the most part. I am waiting for the latest update. I will call them when they open up. I was supposed to get an email yesterday with all the updated pics for you guys ;)

Mike
