Hi everyone. I want to play. been busy doin stuff to mine too. I'll share more later when I have time to upload more pics.


hope I remember how to do this

 

I don't particularly like your wheels. They look good, but when it comes to the silver star in the middle of each wheel it throws me off. You have a nice ride though, keep it shining.

 

clean ride just not feeling the wheels

 

What kind of brakes are those? Any other mods?

Close-ups if ya got 'em!

 

What I really wanted was all black. we all know that there are tons of them with the chrome ring around the outside of the rim. i found these and am toying with the idea of blacking the chrome star. more to come later

 

thanks.
lets see what it will look like with a blcked out star...more to come

 

Hi and thanks. I've got alot of pics, i just haven't uploaded yet. I know that most of the members here are doing real mods, i found a cheaper alternative to the $4000 brembo set-up. i found someone on ebay selling fiberglass covers that get high-temp siliconed and stuck to the calipers. that's right. they are phonies. they look great and untill i have the dough to lay down for a brembo kit, these will do. As far as other mods, i'll list and upload later on . thanks and am glad to have joined up!!!

at a quick glance it looks like an undercover cop TL...with the color of the car and black wheels and all....maybe it's just me...looking good though and welcome...

 

Aw man...that's exactly what I was about to say! It looks like a cop car with that - CHANGE THOSE! NOT FUNNY MAN! I was about to delete all my pics showing my plates! (j/k) Hey, dude, you do have to tell us if you are a cop right?

I'll wait on the wheel change, but for now...


W-E-L-C-O-M-E OFFICER HOUSEFULL!!

 

YES paint the star black. Nice car otherwise. SORRY, MHO

 

ROFL, shit I fell over. The best part is I work in a building with about 400 or so cops with all of thier "toys"
Maybe it 's rubbing off trying to go stealth and all...

but, I'm definately no cop.

 

what do you figure would be the best way? they are plastic and I'm trying to get a second set to play with. it isn't a show car, i was thinking of some matte black spray paint?

 

Go to pep boys, they have some "wheel paint" in a spray can that some people have used with great success. If not, you can always get some good old BBQ grill paint or something with bit more endurance. I would suggest painting it flat-black, or something distinctly different from the black the wheels are so it won't look like you were trying to paint it the same color but messed up on the color-matching.

 

yea i think blackening the star would look pretty good.
Very stealthish.
