so i bought corvette salad shooters 16x9.5 (thanks hinrichs) and now my car is looking better. had to roll and pull the fenders in the rear and then had to raise the rear coils about 3 turns to fit the wheels without rubbing since i need more camber but theres no way to adjust it until i get camber bolts or camber plates. i will look into buying camber plates or bolts soon after i do some maintenance

sorry for the crappy cell phone photos

was messing around with my iphone and editing the pictures in lightroom for shits and giggles. dont think they came out badly but im certainly no pro.

For some reason - dont ask me why - I want to see it with some wide RPF-1s in red all around.

But that's just me

Keep it up

im going for wide wheels just need the money first.

so heres my update, i tried to make my car look a bit better and was kinda bored of the two tone grey and silver so on impulse and a bit of convincing from a friend, i painted my car a hunter green.

cost me less than $200 and i did it in my driveway. honestly im not sold on the color im hoping itll look better after i clear coat it and wet sand it. im kinda afraid that i made it look even more shitty than it did before, but oh well cant go back now. will take better pictures tomorrow in the light. i was able to shave some stuff such as the black plastic trim running along the side of the car as well as the black trim on the roof.

new stuff happening to the car but i wont be saying anything else until its done. trying to surprise everyone

[Ryan.]

So considering trying to paint my car with a couple friends, my reasoning is because it's basically all in the prep work and sure it won't be show quality paint but it'll be all one color. Not to mention I've always wanted to try body work. Just not sure what color I want to do.

i kinda like the dull paint as well. just needs some new wheels and itll be on point!

thanks man. and yeah im working towards getting wheels hoping to have them on by the first week of june.


here are some random pics a friend took while we were cruising home from class was unaware he took these so its a nice surprise. really love my car so much more now that its low
