This Legend Will Die Hard- A Sad Story

[Bystrov]

Yup, already have them


Gonna have 24k Gold bolts, theyre being put together as we speak, I didnt want the rim to be obnoxious, i wanted the small details help bring the eye to that portion of the car and have certain things about it stand them out.

well thats certainly the right way of going about it! Looking forward to it. very excite ... this thread makes me want to finally get a viggen!

good choice for the wheels, thought about gold bolts for them>?

Yup, already have them

These wheels will work well on the saab shame about the colour as you won't be able to see the details.

Please go for bright bolts...

The equip logo is still gonna have a nice steel finish on it and the gold bolts with the gloss black lip will help with keeping things looking sleek, but aggressive when it catches your attention.

Lol anal swelling reducer?! And go static. Unless your super ballet and have the cash for bags. And I like those rims good job!!

Thats what happens when my older brother comes in my room lol. And im thinking ill do coilovers first, make my custom fender flares out of metal, then check out options for air ride.

those are even better then hirsch wheels

I dont mind the hirsch wheels, it just unfortunately they lack depth for me and are very oemish with the car and i want to expand those boundaries.

UPDATEEEEEEEE !

So due to the lovely ice storms were having up here in polar bear canada it is increasingly difficult for me to work on my car. I also have decided to do some work myself on my car since i have applied for school for automotive technician.

Unfortunately.....its ****ing -41* outside and will have to wait till spring to do work. But in the mean time i will be collecting parts, materials, and tools to start first thing.

Here in Canada we have boxing day which is like black friday but its after Christmas Day. So i went and spent $400.00 on a few things.
Video card :$180.00
8 gb of ram: $40.00


Precise and regular screw driver set: $15.00
Air pneumatic tool set with accesory tool kit and life time warranty : $80.00
142 Mechanic tool set with matte blue finish and life time warranty: $85.00


So all in all boxing day was good Next im looking for an air compressor, and also a mig welder to later build some custom fenders.

Check list is coming along nicely.
(dont mind the anal swelling reducer....thats my brother coming into my room Lol)


Alot of things being stored in my room !


I also bought some books and reference manuals to keep me busy in the winter months and to gain some insight and knowledge. I love porsches so i bought a book on the 911 and the history of the company.


In the meantime the car is having a bit of an ignition problem, i believe the tune i have is killing the spark plugs a bit faster than expected so i ordered a new set and should be here by tomorrow. I also ordered a torque wrench set which should arrive the same day. And to finish off my 3 Piece wheels are finally done and are being assembled as we speak and i should be picking them up hopefully tomorrow or thursday

I have a huge question for the community, im trying to source some fender flares, ones that i can mold into the body of the car. The only problem is i cant find any brands or generic ones that i can just attatch to the side and mold in. Any help would be greatly appreciated from you guys !

[dirtmcgirt]

have always loved saabs, can't wait to see this one come together

[brechnar100]

I vote against bolt-ons. I think a good pull or molded flares would be amazing though. This car will be incredible. If you need any pointers on the air setup, shoot me a PM, I know of a couple guys with bagged 9-3s that could probably help you out. You may know of them already though.

Definitely, i know a couple guys who are bagged but they arent very helpful in trying to get a fellow saab owner the same knowledge (neither is the rest of the saab community). But ill shoot you a pm right now.
