Road to dat fitment..

[_AnGeL_]

Just paint... That's not bad either imho.

But why not save a bit more for extra bodywork then?

Honestly, I don't really want to make it wider. I think I've pulled my fenders to the point where I don't rub, and I don't want to make my wheels more aggressive right now. Maybe later on in the future I can add flares or something.

I removed my rear camber shims and added some washers instead. I was able to get a bit more camber and the washers don't space out the wheels as much as the shims. I'm fairly close to resting on the lip in the rear.

I wish, but no. Just paint.

For widebody right?

Pulled the wrap off. Going to camber the rear a couple more degrees and then it's off to the body shop.

Flares I guess

Got the new management installed and sold off the V1. Not much else in updateland.

Might have a big update within a month or two.

Well, I'm finally ditching the autopilot v1. It's for sale if anyone is interested PM me.

I purchased accuair's switchspeed with the vu4 valve and zaetech digigauge. Switchspeed and vu4 got here yesterday, digigauge is out for delivery today. Install should be either tomorrow or Sunday.

Thanks man, it's taken a long time for me to figure out exactly what to do with it. I think I finally have my mind made up lol. Hopefully that doesn't change.

So, I went out with a buddy to snap some pics yesterday. I was messing around with LR so they're not all edited the same, but whatevs.

Like the flares and congratz on the job. You've got some nice future plans!

Frontview picture taken perhaps? This looks good, but gives you more expensives lol.

These are all I have




So, intern salary really sucks, haven't had any expendable cash to drop on my hatch. Thankfully my manager offered me a full time position, which will start at the end of summer. First real job in my field , and I landed it before I graduate . So, income shouldn't be an issue after the summer.

That said, I haven't worked on it any, but I've decided what color it's going to be painted. Also, finally decided on a front lip and side skirts I like. After discussing it with my wife, I should be ordering the lip and side skirts in a few months, and then a few months after that it'll be off to paint.

The other thing I need to start looking for is wider lips for my wheels now. I've been contemplating only buying a pair of lips for the rear, 5", and swapping my 3.5" to the front to reduce costs. I would have to space the fronts some, but that's OK as it would also give me more clearance between the wheel and the bag. Currently, if I were to max out my coilover bodies the wheel would probably rub on the bag or there would be like 1-2mm of clearance. This is part of the reason why I haven't gone lower yet in the front.

Not sure, a lot to think about fitment-wise.

Been down this road, good luck man. The 5-door would look good with flares.

Decided to be proactive and test got one of my front flares. Had some wrap laying around so I wrapped it really quick and did a ghetto mock up.



I need to get wider lips, I'm thinking 4.5" front and 5" or 5.5" rear. I have to measure the rear and see how much wider I can go.

Here's some newer pics. She was all dirty, because I'm lazy and didn't feel like washing her. So ehhh.
