All dat meat 8D

SlickxAc

looks good! and same with what ed said, SUPER DEEP CONCAVE!

opboarding

Sorry to disappoint. I didn't really know about those until it was too late. I already had the tires, and I just didn't care that much. I'm pretty happy with my setup as it is.

And yeah ed, I've had this bumper for like a year. We talked about it a bunch when I got it!

opboarding

It was that long because;

1.) They didn't have the right size block in stock needed to make it, so that took a couple months.
2.) The vendor messed up my order, so after getting them I had to wait again for two to get remade.

It sucked.

Looks good OP! Loving the meat...on the tires that is!

Mr. NC

Took a few pictures with my friend's new '13 GTI today. His apartment parking garage has an awesome view of downtown, and it's right next to the spot I always take pictures at. I never knew he lived so close!

These were taken with his ancient point and shoot. It was just a random spur of the moment shoot we did today. I haven't edited them or anything.

Looks great

Vinyled my B pillars and chrome trunk bar gloss black to match my theme. Thanks SS Joseph Broseph for the idea to buy the vinyl. I will be redoing my grille too with this when I have the time.

Harper

Lame mod. I want my money back. Your guarantee of satisfaction is false!


Your car looks great btw, just needs a roof spoiler to set it off. SSJoesephBlowseph needs to make a russian style CF one for you.

ACCURATEin

opboarding

I know. I really want one. I like the project 10k one but I don't think I'd be able to make it look right since it comes rolled up. The russian one is amazing too.

Harper

Rolled up?

opboarding

Mr. NC bought one:

What the eff. $299 for that? Now I'm thinking of going with a Civic SI roof spoiler.

Vinyl looks good!!

The stupid roof spoiler! I wanna punch it in the face. I honestly don't know if I'll be able to make one. I can't get anything that will match the contour of the glass. The problem is that the mold has to be flexible enough to pop off the rear window yet rigid enough that it won't deform as I work with it afterwards. This is the dilemma I currently face.

opboarding

That SI rook spoiler looks good. I want one that is pretty flat and minimalist.

Joe I hope you are able to make something eventually. Maybe after a while you will learn some tricks and will be able to make more complicated things with your skillz.

ssjoeboe9

Ryan, if I had another car I could do it now, but since this is my only car I have to be able to work with everything off. So if I could shape/mold/sculpt everything while leaving it on the glass I could do it, but I can't since I have to drive around and stuff.

opboarding

Just painters tape it down and don't drive on the freeway. Or get your gf to drive you places for a week. In exchange you can buy her candy.

Harper

Btw, the civic SI spoiler is like $35 unpainted on ebay.

PyroDave

why not put aluminum foil or something of the like over the area of where the roof spoiler goes, use a material that gets rigid and adheres, then just take it off with the foil. no damage to car, rigid enough to work with

apinwp09GBTSX

is it this one...

because Im about to buy it... been looking for a flat roof spoiler; Im just hoping its not like the project 10k roof spoiler and it comes all rolled up

ed_423

haha ryan, when i said a bit dark i mean your wheels with your car color :p

Harper

That looks like it, but I was never able to find the owner of the white tsx to ask them.

I actually asked a seller, who was selling a similar one for $35, if the wing is flexible, incase the curvature isn't exact so you can heat it up to flex it. The seller replied that the spoiler is pretty rigid, so I doubt it'll come rolled up.

Edit: heres a fiberglass one:

The GF doesn't drive yet. I'm trying to teach her lol. I just gotta get her to learn how to drive an auto, then she can practice manual on mine, although driving lowered is a completely different story.

I honestly think I might do this!

Bro... I tried lol. Look at my progress thread. I pull it off and it just flops around like dead fish.

defconskylude

i have this 08 civic si roof spoiler and it doesnt fit in the middle and there's a 1/2 inch gap on both sides. its short and doesnt go across the window all the way. i have it on my car and just used epoxy glue and wrapped it in cf vinyl

if youre super picky about this just be aware of these issues

Harper

Do you have upclose pics defcon?

defconskylude

nope

Harper

^ was your wing for a sedan or two door? I'm pretty sure there's some difference there, but the pics of the white tsx shows pretty good fitment.

Here's the same spoiler posted above for $35:

i dont remember. it was 4 years ago.

buy it and let us know

opboarding

Minor update. Tediously picked off the clear coated plastidip on my grille, and replaced it with gloss black vinyl. The vinyl isn't perfect but it was really hard to work over some of the curves.

Look at that disgusting orange peel.

iCrap

looks much better.

ssjoeboe9

Sick! I'm glad you finally got around to wrapping it.
