thanks. I feel the same way.
I wish i could but weather has been good. Plus with fresh paint im kinda hesitant.
Thanks Alan but i cant detail the car until 1 month since the paint breathes and thats how long it will take for a full cure.
Thanks...
Thanks. You can achieve the look for less just need to really do your research.
Thanks i hope when i dial in the suspension more that i can get a little more cleaner and close the huge looking gap.

for any new guys out there, i think tlpinoy was the first to flare his fenders with custom work back in 2008, at least on the forums. he had a 2-tone look, wasn't on airbags and had axis rims and the overall look didn't turn out too great imo, but he is the original!

^because people talk about your car when they see wrxboy's car. when i see both of your cars, i think of tlpinoy's car. don't get me wrong, both you and wrxboy are done up right all the way, but i just posted that as kind of a tribute to the first guy on the forums to do it. i think tlpinoy's thread didn't get too much interest because the finished look wasn't that great.

Thanks
You may never know, with Rodneys car getting all the mag exposure one of them might just ship his car to hawaii
I think when Rodney was test fitting the 10's in the front the wheels look good on his car too. Maybe its the color of the car that gives it that more elegant look.

Damn body work is super clean, really nice job, the wheels have really nice contrast and match NBP really good. Thats awsome. Just gotta wash that bad boy and polish it. cant wait till hella flush is here and i hope u make a big scene!

[quote=wrxyboy;11672179]I can understand how you feel. When i look at the wheels in pics it doesnt show the level of detail that the wheels have. I guess its just one of those things that you have to see in person.
i dont think its the wheels thats throwing me off. maybe not flattering angles for the pictures? believe me im not hating cause the amount you spent on the wheels and suspension alone is sick. but with the whole "stance" scene going on..i think what i like the best...is as low as you possibly can go with the fender barely above the rim, but yet as far out as it can go. i feel like the pics you posted the cars just slammed down and theres like 4-5 inches of clearance from fender to rim in clearance. again this is all my opinion, but i think some of the sickest stanced cars have that "fit tight like a glove" look.

I like already, but I think it'll be ever better with better pics and a detail

this is how i felt about rodneys car as well. in the end, its the look they were going for, and liek he said, its much harder with air. gotta decide if you wanna be flush riding, or flush parked.
