sickkk what color?

dkx64 · 02-26-2014, 05:01 PM

Aren't those like 435 per wheel at that size? that's 1900 just in wheels. I spent less than 1800 and I got 18s:P. So much for budgeting and getting 17s hehe. That is unless you got nexen tires. Then you win, or maybe I win because I got bridgestones

You can find them cheaper if you look around and wait for deals. I'm going to get away for around $1500 for wheels, $769 for tires and it looks like they will be 235/45's not 235/40's (my bad

)

LET THERE BE LIGHT!! I've wanted fog lights since I bought the car. I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger. If I turn it into a track car, the lights will replaced with brake ducts. Anyway, here you go! Thank you @Diode Dynamics for your excellent customer service!!!

All parts ready for install

Light check. Wiring hooked up, but not run pretty

Decided while I was at it to swap from a 6000k to a 5000k all around. I never really liked the blue, but it was all they had when I bought my HID's

Ballasts, ballasts everywhere!!

One more light check with the old 6000k bulbs but this time hooked up to the fogs

And the final. Very happy with the outcome. Wish I would have done it sooner

So finally after slightly more than a year of ownership, the visual aspects of the car are about to be done! Made a little change on wheel choice, but I'm happy with my decision. I purchased a stillen wing that should be here tomorrow and off to paint on friday.

So here are the rims! TSW Nurburgring 18X8 +45 offset. Cell phone pics for now. I'll get better ones after I get the wing on. Totally stoked! Wheels make the car look MEAN!

So, I know I keep saying that, "this is the last thing for awhile," but this time it kind of has to be. The car visually is done. No skirts or diffuser. Next up is actual performance parts

Sadly, I need to see how she does on a track (still a ways off) before I mod much more.

Anyway, todays update: Stillen spoiler

Never really planned on adding a wing until I saw a stillen 6 months ago or so. I kept looking in hopes that I could find a used one…..one day searching on ebay, I stumbled across one. Jumped on it right away…It was here a week later, and off to paint! Picked it up today and decided to take a half day at work and put it on! LOVE IT!

test fit (yes, it is the correct color. The light REALLY plays with the color of the wing)

And there she is!!! Always loved me a big ol' dunk!

Couple quick pics from today!
