hakhawks cosmos e36 coupe

[hakhawk]

oh man looks so good! well done

hope i get to see it in person at some point!

definitely dude!

looks so much better in Cosmos!!! loving the kit too

its not cosmos :p

Shaun Quills kit is fully blended. Haven't seen any others though=)

shauns is seam sealed then whole car painted from what i read, not fully blended. his was inspiration for mine. pictures of his made me bite the bullet on getting the kit!

the one thing that annoyed me was the raised edges around the whole kit, so mines cut down and smoothed into the original bodywork as much as possible

[Earl]

Oh he meant that way haha
Yeah yours is rhe first to take it that far=)

[PassionGarage]

I was hoping to have it ready to enter 100mm, but at this point I might not have the car back in my possession til that weekend, at which point I need to swap wheels and lower it immediately!! :p

There's a bunch of things I need to do maintenance wise when I get it back, but I should be at the downshift meet end of November. Unfortunately it'll be sans supercharger as there's things I'm changing on that too

its original colour is cosmos, the colour it was when i bought the car turns out was not cosmos(it had been resprayed), and the new colour is jet black with a red pearl(custom mix)

i should really get the thread title changed!

so body is done for the most part. theres lots of little things to tick off the list to get it back up to par, but im extremely happy with the look. need to sort the camber and height, but its not far off.

onto some pics, my mate rushed these before we ran out of sun. hopefully have some more pics in a few weeks













motorsport hardware badges. super happy with these



my diy carbon foglight duct, had my mate 2k clear it while the car was getting done. not bad for a diy i think. currently its useless, but will feed the pod filter when the supercharger goes back on



this was a joke/stir/whatever between mates. i actually think its pretty cool. theres one on each side of the roof spoiler, it really pops in the sun, and almost hides in the shade




i put on my new retrimmed mtech2 wheel, much nicer than the old 3 spoke i had on



also unbolted the rear shocks and dropped the rear as low as i could(onto my mates jack and dented my spare wheel area lol) to check clearance around the fenders.

tyre hits the metal on the front edge at the door strip before it hits fender, this may change when i dial out some of the camber. rear didnt hit anything, but would hit bumper edge first








oh, for those that will probably ask, wheels are simmons LE, 17x8.5 et13 225/45 continentals, 17x9.75 et9 255/40 continentals

[Mehowski]

oh my those fenders are nuts

[BrandonMcKiernan]

wow. came out excellent.
