Wider than it is Long: A build thread.

My vote on the wheels is dark centers with polished lips. I think that would go very well with the color.

x2 on the polished centers, would give it a nice classy look, and that color choice would be clean as well

polised centers. would look so classy with that color and it'll keep it low key and make the stance the attention getter like you want

polish is how i see it looking best. my 2 cents

Idk, the faces are chrome and stripping them is proving to be pain enough as it is.
I am REALLY feeling this color scheme. I wanted to do the bronze lipped ones, but I think it will clash too hard.

[scweet14]

Bronze might be a bit much, look into black chrome faces possibly, or even leave the faces and go 24k gold lips like that set VIP modular did of their vx110, I think that's what they're called

[Randomofodication]

Of think any bronze or gold color for the lips would clash pretty hard with the paint color for the car. The black chrome lips and gloss black centres would look sick I think. Just my .02

Ryan you should do black chrome on the wheels

[Strawhat]

I am looking into black anodizing, found a local place. Fingers crossed that we can work something out.
Cuz I love this color scheme


Black chrome was like my first choice, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to find a place that does chrome work. There's a local place that does black nickel plating too, so we'll see if I can figure anything about that out.

I worked on the car yesterday, I had a flat tire, which is the only thing I took a picture of.
Will update with some pics hopefully tomorrow night.

Nice work you've done here. Is it finished jet? I just red this much to find an unfinished car

[Volvosome]

Go next level, shave one.


BOOM

You're absolutely right. So it shall be.

Was goingggg to work on my car today, but a flat tire and helping a friend take a bunch of stuff off of his car took all my time.

So here's a small update.
Fiberglassed the welded areas, and the ex-gas lid.




Here's my new exhaust I need to get cut and put on, I got from my friends old FC.


And lastly, here's what I replaced my flat with! Really like 19's way more than 18's.
I need to move it from my house to my shop, but one of my bags is leaking air. I swear this car is trying to kill me.

[rsingh3g]

If you decide to go 19s, I will steal your 18s lol.

[scweet14]

those 19s...perfect

sell me your 18s

[floatingdino]

Colour match centers, gloss black lips.
18"s are better imo

+1 that
I agree

But with 19's you can find smaller tires so you dont run into the same problems with those 18's... Right?

Well with the width I'm running, I'd need at the very least a 235/35/19.
Which is about 7mm taller than my 265/35/18's.

Regardless, found some KILLER 19's.
Every bone in my body wants to trade, but you guys, and a few friends are saying not to. Some are saying yes but...idk.

And yes to black. Going with black. Will be cool and mean.

[02wrx801]

Hmm. I see what you're saying... So did you radius your rear fenders? I've been trying to read up on it for the last little bit for a future build. Any input?
