how did u mount the license plate? i am having trouble finding the right brackets in homedepot haha

tobwac

all I did it was moving it to the left (when you facing the car) the right corner of the license plate is screwed where the left corner used to be and for the left screw you need to drill a hole in the corner of the lower grill and also you need to get piece of metal with 2 holes on each side then you screw that piece to the license plate bracket and to that hole you drilled and you done I hope it does make sense

ed_423

gonna be a small project for myself to see what's the best way to mount my license plate this summer. thanks for the info!

Long time I didnt post anything mainly because no new mods were made except roof rack lol trying to save up for my final project. Weather got nicer so decided to wash my car clay bared and wax it and I took few pix

ttk5

nice pics man. what camera and what lens? i love roof racks by the way

Mr. NC

Nice pics, I got a Trek Hardtail too

Can I say that we have the same problem? In that we both have color matched body kits/parts YET they do not look like OEM color...WTF or am I seeing things

tobwac

I use canon rebel t3 with the lens it came with
yes agree about roof racks all I need is fairing

tobwac

yes I know that the paint is little off but I think it has to do with the material that it is made off

I love the Trek its my second DD

MrOtocinclus

Man, your car looks hot.

Mr. NC

Same thing on my JDP spoiler thought it was cuz it was painted on CF but seeing your body kit same problem lol


I love my Trek to death, been in tooo many near collisions with it I just want a Santa Cruz Superlight now lol

tobwac

I got you Trek bikes are awesome however I had a small accident while jumping I broke the frame one weld just snapped but it was still under warranty so I went back to the store they looked on it and said it shouldn't happen. I ended up getting new bike so now im rocking Trek 4300

Mr. NC

LMAO I have a Trek 4300 but an older model, I've taken it apart and everything just for curiosities sake, my rear wheel has been outta true for the past couple years hasn't taco'd yet lucky so far

defconskylude

nice pics man. i kinda want to take new pics too.

youre definitely puttong some post processing on the pics to make them contrast right? black gradients and high contrast?

tobwac

^^ I only used different filter for lens to get that kind of effect no photoshop or other program were involved

ttk5

which filter did you use? considering there was no post processing those pics look great!

defconskylude

ya man quit holding back. they look great

tobwac

I used tiffen color grad blue lens

ed_423

nice progress dude

tobwac

Thanks...one more big thing and I think Im done I said "I think" because once you start modding there is always something you can change or get lol

jeroplex

how do those federal tires feel?

tobwac

I really like them even on wet road they are not bad honestly cant go wrong with them for that price I have them for over a year and they holding up good

jeroplex

good to hear. i might get them when i get my wheels

tobwac

I will say that only bad think about them is that they are more noisy compare to stockies but nothing ridicules but if that is a problem you can always put your music louder lol

xjoeyc23x

was your roof vinyl wrapped? if so what did it run you?

tobwac

actually I used plastidip which was about $10 lol

xjoeyc23x

damn looking to actually vinyl wrap my whole car to make it a different color wanted to see what the prices was like ... if anyone knows please pm me

tobwac

usually roof cost about $150 to wrap the whole car it really depends on the car size, vinyl type

defconskylude

$2500-4000 to wrap the whole car

xjoeyc23x

well i have basque red, and not really a fan being 19 years old lol...so kind of want to wrap the car white and do black hood,roof,trunk,tint,rims and tails

KillerG

wrap it yourself mr. 19 year old. it takes alot of effort but it is very doable and you will save like 2 grand

ed_423

takes a LONG ass time, patient, and skills. but you can do it haha

and i know what you mean, but rock the red my friend. rock it, rock it hard.

theres several basquet red in this forum and they are bitching hot.

xjoeyc23x

mehh ... not that many mods that look too good on it to be honest...i think just tint and if i can find them some black 19 s.h.i.e.l.d rims from the tsx would look sick
