Timeline - Sep 2011 - Just enjoying the car
Transalpina for the second time. First it was back in Jul 2010, she survived both
In 2010 the road looked like this :
I managed to get away with all the parts on the car but I did hit the floor a couple of times.
Details about the road :
The Transalpina or DN67C located in the Parāng Mountains group, in the Southern Carpathians of Romania, is one of the most spectacular roads of the Carpathian Mountains. It connects Novaci, south of Parāng Mountains, to Sebeş in the north.
It is said that the road was built under King Carol II and rebuilt during World War II by German troops and it is called The King's Road by the locals. Also a story has it that Nicolae Ceauşescu had the Transfăgărăşan Road (DN7C) built during the communist regime just to surpass the Transalpina.
The road has its highest point at Urdele Pass, where the elevation is 2,145m above sea level. Given the high altitude, the road is closed during the cold months of the year. Works began in 2007 in order to transform this spectacular road into a modern highway (148 km), allowing a rapid transit between Oltenia and Transylvania.
Rānca, a newly developed resort, is located towards the south end of the Transalpina road.
Now in 2011, road is 98% complete but GOD I didn't imagine those 2% would be worse than the one pictures above in 2010 ... :

A little work in progress at the end of Sep. I managed to split in 2 pcs a sideskirt while trying to enter a ramp to wash the car. Since I had to respray this and I wasn't satisfied with the finishing of the front hood I decided to do it also ... while I was doing the hood why shouldn't I do the fenders also ...

Hello guys,
Long time no see Been busy with the birth of my first kid [ now 7 months old ] , redoing the house and all the other things that occur with such events in your life.
The car sat parked in a garage for about 5 months and waited for some attention and with the starting of car meets and shows I took some time to fix her up and do some upgrades.
new stuff :
1. new headlights with bigger projectors
2. OE JDM spec mirrors , after 2 years of hunting them down finally got my hands on a pair, now all I have to do is wire them to get them working
3. Color coded roof, no more black stuff
4. Small license plate bumper [ custom made from 2 bumpers to fill the space ]
5. RH ZW3 Modular wheels 17" 8J 5x112 with 20 mm adapters, should be et 35 now on 195/40 tires. Looking for 2 x 2.25" lips to make the rear ones 9J.

On coilovers now , lowered to the max. In 6 months I recon it will be bagged.
@MommysLittleMonster
Wasn't 100% sure on them. I've put them on the car in Grey and they looked like sh*t so had to do a color. Only options were gold or white and this blue that has pearl and goes from green to turqoise, dark blue ...
I'm REALLY opened to any idea on the car so if you have another color in mind willing to hear it

It's been a while since I last visited this forum. Free time is something overrated for me in the past year.
Few things happened this year and I will list them here
Had a sunroof installed :
Made the rear wheels wider , now they are 8.5 ... still looking for 9" lips to move the 8.5 on the front.
Added also headlight washers from a Polo 6N2
Now I'm working on the airride suspension and an engine swap [ m13a to m16a , 92 to 125 hp ] , will keep you posted
