i finally got my faces back from my friend chris and ther are beautiful, especially for the first set of wheels he ever powdercoated. the faces are a metalic rootbeer color. my phone just sucks so they look black in some pictures

wheels stripped

this is amazing.

[bostongrnM3]

Wow. Perfect.

Thank you, it's a work in progress so no where near perfect. But it puts a smile on my face every time I drive it

[xXp_ExoTiic_qXx]

Wow. Perfect.

finished product for now, waiting on my wheels to be finished. I'm just so glad to be low again after a year long break







I still need to fix my bumper its lower on the passenger side. still have to put my zkws on. i also need fog deletes and a new grill for the bumper.

but progress is progress

[bostongrnM3]

update time.

bought some powered by max lug nuts.



ordered my adapters from adaptec/ motorsports tech. great guys, awsome customer service and a fast turnaround. i definitely recommend them.



received my powder, new color for the epsilons. currently waiting on my good friend chris to finish them before reassembly.



Received my Broadway Static 500 series with custom 16k/18k swift/hypercoil springs, these things are so beautiful and well worth the time and money.



comparison shots. to my old ksports

dem wheels are nice

[bostongrnM3]

well just put my order in with Broadway Static. ordered my coilovers with 16/18k swift springs I'm excited.

these 3 weeks are going to feel like eternity

[bostongrnM3]

well here is a small update, havn't done much to the car, I spent way too much money on my friends bachlor party in Vegas and with misc things. I'm finally back on track though and really focused to be ready for the summer. after almost 4 years of ownership i finally decided to ditch the shitty us spec headlights in favor of genuine zkw headlights.



i will be removing the angel eyes, as i **** them on e36s

well i finally decided to split the wheels, the faces will be getting new lips and barrels making them to the specs i desire.



first one split



all 4 done


being a fool flipped the face in the barrel for the lulz if only that could happen.


that is it for now. since these wheels are 20 bolt it may take a whale for the lips to be made, but as soon as they are in my possesion i will be assembling then and hopefully i will have my broadway static coilovers by then to prevent my lips from touching my fenders

[Earl]

I do not believe anything is new=)

[xXp_ExoTiic_qXx]

Yeah we need some updates immediately!
