I used dupli color vinyl and fabric spray. Simply wash and wet sand with 600 grit sandpaper with warm soapy water. Then clean with prep spray and tack cloth and spray several light coats. It dries to touch in 30 mins and to handle in a few hours. No complaints so far

Apologies if I missed it earlier in the thread, but what are you using to refinish the interior plastics, and what do you think of it? I like the finish you're getting out of it.

So got a couple things going on now. Bought a grip royal plumcrazy wheels coupled with bsweitzer99 custom adapter. Should be arriving soon.

Next, put my enkei up for sale. I'm going with 16x8 like other people here suggested I do for a tighter fitment with chewing up my fenders. Still going with a mesh style rim and changing the color.

And also re did more of the interior, stock interior comes beige/tan and now it's satin black.

I would rock the shit out of that, looks great.
Link the images directly onto the post though, us S/W people are too lazy to click links.

True. But I've seen klutch wheels consistently around $1K for the 16x8 through klutch republic themself or other online retailers. 16x8 would really set the stance of this car better. Lot less tire which would work out greatly so I don't keep destroying fenders lol

Yeah that's how i usually tend to look at wheels, but sometimes you do have to be careful cause a higher price may just end up being a ripoff.Originally posted by BoostSC2 View PostThanks man I appreciate it.
I did some more digging and unlike XXR or brands along those lines, Klutch doesn't have a bunch of different wheels. Yes, they've only been around since 2012 but XXR isnt much older and they have tons of options. XXR are also a lot cheaper. These klutch wheels, specifically the sl1 are around the same price as enkei are as well. Whereas a full set of XXR or Rota, etc is the same price for a pair of enkei or klutch.

I don't know much about them, but with a "you get what you pay for" attitude, 250$ a wheel is a pretty high price for most of the low quality reps. And considering Rotiform cast mono block wheels cost no more than 70 or so bucks more for wheels an inch or 2 bigger, they shouldn't be bad. And in that thread, i don't see any "fake wheels" complaints so i think they must be of pretty decent quality. None of this i know for sure, but just trying to investigate things to help you out

I want to keep the mesh look and unfortunately enkei 92 only come in 15x8 for a 4x100 pattern. The klutch sl1 come in a 16x8/9. I wanted to get klutch originally but I didn't know if they were just another rep company so I went with enkei.

Anyone know of Klutch Republic wheels are reps or not? I can't find any discussions about them

Smaller tires/ bigger wheels would be perfect. I'll be putting my borbets on my coupe come spring time so if you need to know what 16's look like I can let ya know haha

Well I'm planning on replacing these 205/50 tires with 195/45 in the spring. I'm still considering 16s with a small tire. I had 16x7 wheels before but they looked unproportionate to me anyway, 15s seem to be the best fit. But definitely getting a smaller tire and dropping it more after winterOriginally posted by Robitussin View PostLip looks great!! Just a question, do you plan on ever getting bigger wheels for this thing? If you got some 16s or maybe even 17s with some more tire tuckage going on, i think this car would be golden. I understand if you prefer the meaty tire look, but just being curious
