took it to a chop shop?

 

custom fenders then respray?

 

No, It's a body shop where I currently work at and do my own work... Unlike 80% of the people on this forum that pay to have their work done.

I put a lot more work than just that in it. Custom fenders, Rolled and flared quarters, RS1 full lip kit from racingsolutions, Adaptec hubcentric 30mm Adapters, Bag Riders/Air Lift Bag setup, 2 sets of camber bolts for the front, Shave rear hatch garnish, shaved antenna, Blackworks quick release bumpers, badgeless front grilles, and a full Color change respray.
Probably forgetting a lot also.

 

Quite the claim for someone who's only been here for 3 months.

 

 

That's what I meant that they were rolled etc before getting paint, wish I would have done that. I figured there was more to it. Can't see all that from one photo.

 

Yeah, it's a iPhone picture and its under weird lighting and dust is everywhere so it really has no detail to the photo. Guess you guys will have to wait to see a feature of the car once it finished or who will be attending Scion Exposed or Fall Import Alliance?

Heres another teaser, which was previously taken before the last photo I took. Thats before an alignment, roll, and pull just a test fit when I got the adapters... 17x9.5"s et26 all the way around..

 

Is body work really necessary for 9.5 et 26? To avoid camber?

 

He is on air so that's probably why.

 

I'm on 10s +25 bagged nothin but a roll. No need for over the top fender work at all...

And for the record, some of those 80% of people that don't do their own work may have other priorities that keep them from there car. Family, demanding job, difficult school... Must be nice to have time for a hobby.

 

Even more reason NOT to do body work, IMO. I'd still like to see sawblades done on a static drop at those specs with stock body. Just some rolled fenders, little bit of stretch, and some camber. I think it would look great.

 

Well I don't know then! Maybe he just wanted the practice?

haha...

 

Thought my Rear was looking pretty Aggressive in this shot...lol

 

Good lookin ___!

 

His setup looks whack sorry to say, guy is trying to impress us with corvette wheels. I agree with you Jon!

 

He seems like he has a chip on his shoulder for some reason.

 

Agree'd dude is a chump tbh. Cool wheels brah, you're just like every other vw out there, And your over the top fender work is useless.

 

Give him a break guys! He did a custom badless grill AND removed the rear emblem! genius...

 

30mm adapters, I can't really bring myself to run a setup on adapters, that's just me though, and why I had the Style 5s drilled to 5x100. I got a good kick at the random percentage thrown for those putting in work for their cars. Think if that wasn't posted the responses would have been different.

 

How you gonna try and bust his ***** about rims you considered getting? Haha!

I agree about the body work, unless his setup has some kinda crazy ____ we just aren't seeing.
