I have been sucked into it, lol everyone's doing it! Well, not many pics of the car right now, kind of want to wait until I get more installed first, but here is a list of whats going on soon. Right now I have HKS coilovers, doc I's short throw/shifter cable delrin bushings, scan gauge II and doc I cubby, S2k antenna, VRD upper grill, for any more just check my sig. If you would like some before pics, just let me know and I can post what it looks like right now.

Just got these in today!! For the tires, I am about to order some Nitto NT05's in 255/40/17. Will post install pics as well!







Also, waiting on a badgeless garnish, my 08 headlight shrouds, RS2 grill surround, and some interior pieces to get back from getting painted/color matched BSP. Will post pics of the progress. Also received in the mail today a stoptech BBK which I will be powdercoating this weekend, I will post pictures of the results of that, but can't give my color away until later I will be finishing the HID retro when the shrouds are back!

Stay tuned, a lot more to come!

Also, what would you all think if I powdercoated my wheels Gunmetal? What about black/smoked chrome? Let me know!

 

leave em as is, the gloss black keeps it classy

 

damn....
i want these sooooooo bad.

 

Get em! The come in a matte black finish really, not gloss black.

 

yeah especially since the RPF1's in black are being produced in limited numbers.. at least as far as I know.. I would love to have a set for track wheels if I could afford em..

 

whoohoo!! sick wheels!

 

Thanks!!! They do have other black rpf1's floating around, but not this wide or this aggressive for our bolt pattern!!

 

haha you got sucked into this thread...i wont start a thread until i get turbo'd but any who, there arent any more wheels.

 

255's? im might try and squeeze that on my 8inch rim

 

^^wish I saw the enkeis on your ride earlier, then I would have bought the rpf1s they look great.

 

Yeah, well this will be my cars progression thread. When I do boost, which hopefully will be soon, I will keep it in this thread as well, may have to move it to F/I when the time comes. I didn't know where to put this thread, since I will be posting a bunch of lighting, interior, exterior mods lol, this seemed to be the best.

Domo, you shouldn't have waited. The look amazing in person. I was really surprised actually.

 

where did you get your rs2 grill?

 

got it from a member here on SL, I believe there is still one left for sale for like 180, worth it IMO. If you want it powdercoated let me know, I powdercoated mine gloss black last weekend. I can post pictures if you'd like to see it. I don't have the grill trim/surround. I am having that paint matched. Also, I can powdercoat if you would like it done, that is if you decide to get it.

 

those are the gardners? DOHHH soo sick

 

wow steve they look awesome! cant wait to see them with the tires and on the car! also get my errr i mean your BBk PCoated its gonna look sick when its done.

enjoy the BBK i miss it already!

 

Can't wait for updates...this thread is gonna be full of win! :D

 

nice

 

man I cant believe I didnt get these rims when I had a chance hurry and get some pictures up

 

Will be posting soon. I may take some before shots of the bbk, already started cleaning up the caliper last night. Going to take them apart today at work and get them ready for sandblasting. Also, the tires will probably be ordered today. Woot! Once those are in, install pics will definitely be up. Thanks for all the compliments guys, and I will show some before pictures of the car this weekend. Hopefully I can get the calipers powder coated this weekend as well.

Also note that my car is pretty low, not tucking but I am slammed on the HKS coils in the front lol. So rubbing is a definite possibility, going to talk to my body shop and see if anyone has good experience with rolling fenders.

 

You dont need to roll, just raise your suspension..seems like your gunning for function over form. Slammed does not equal function despite it looking awesome.
