man you are brave, I would hug you and tell you everything will be alright, but this wait is going to KILL you.
|
Doesnt help I have A.D.D. Im already itching but luckily I'm swamped at work (havent even had time for the board lately). I'm going to try and stop by today and get a peak of how its doing.
End result, Flat Black, gloss black rims, red pinstripe on the wheels, red halo type LED's in the lights and a little custom deals here and there. Quite a bit of carbon parts but not sure what's in all these boxes as I ordered them a while back. Need those pillars too in carbon. Can't wait, I'll take tons of pics!! |
That will be sick - In for end result showing.
Side note, Adam - thanks again for the gesture on the shipment of 'experimental' goods. Hope to return a favor to you some day. |
cant wait for your car to be done adam.. im excited for a little photo session!
|
PS: the red angel eye leds are gonna go great with the red pinstripe ;) great idea!!
And when you go big brake it.. get some nice red calipers and ill be sooo jealous !!! lol |
It's a cool idea, and a lot of people seems to be doing this lately, but I think you might get bored with the color very quickly.
Also, water spots on flat black colored cars are a BIYACH to clean. |
Just don't do it camo...
lol! |
Were going to do a semi sheen matte so its easier to clean, basically a low gloss clear coat.
I hear you on it looking old after a while but I'm not really worried about what's in and whats not, worse case I'll add some vinyl later when I get tired of it. Red Calipers.. Really want to do that but brakes are so DAMN pricey!! Need to get some more scratch together first. :tup: |
^ In for some update pics from the shop! :excited:
|
Only has the lights out so far but apparently they are going to get on it next week. I'll grab some pics when its in pcs. Hopefully you wont see me in the background crying :eek:
Kidding....should be all good! Sure hope so anyway |

i would be ready to slit my wrist if it was my car and i had to wait. i got a new transmission installed in a 1999 miata i owned. those were the longest days of my life waiting on the shop to get to it and complete the work, soo ill let you off with a :merrychristmas: but seriously after xmas pics for sure right? |
You guys will be the first to hear!!!
Called him last night and apparently the car's in a ton of pcs. I'm going by to pick up the rims and stuff today. While I have you...there's been some CHANGES: Rather then all flat, looks like we may do a few pcs gloss, such as the roof, tail etc (still not 100% but it gets sprayed next week so I better jump on it) Two, I was going with gloss stock rims but I bought VOLKS so now its all flat black with dark bronze wheels. May sound kind of strange but I'm going to pick up an Aprillia RSV Factory bike when I get a couple of bucks, always liked the flat black and goldish wheels, its a little too gold but I think the Bronze will will awesome! Three, was going to leave the brakes alone but you know me.... So now its going to have 6 piston brembo's in the front, cross drilled Rotora rotors (SP?) and stock rear calipers (couldnt afford the whole kit) My CF pillars should be here soon and I have some JDM Carbon parts coming as well for under the hood and inside. Once all this is done, I'm going to work with my good friend Tony at FI to help me add a Turbo system unless of course that SC deal comes up. Have PICS SOON!!!!! Yeah baby!!! PS. Still debating the coilovers........hmmmmm????? |
My New Wheels
Here's the wheels I'm picking up today:

I hate you, not a fan of bronze, but have always liked those wheels.
|
I'm with you but they are IN STOCK and I dont have to wait.
I'm putting them on and if it gets old I'll paint them later. I like the fact they aren't powdercoated, my wifes Foose Rims on her Rover came powdercoated and they get chipped to hell! It should be cool. This is the bike I'm talking about, its a little too gold but you catch my drift: http://www.maxmoto.co.uk/images/Apri...%20Factory.jpg |
