    Mtech2 goodness, Rial wideness, & Alpine Heaven!

    Yeah I know the title sucks but the car is looking better. Ive added some new items to the car and went out after a wash and snapped up a few pictures. I have a few more items to add and I will have to lower the front just a bit more. But here she is as of today!









    And was playing around with a new Signature......what do you think?

    Pshop a black belt line trim around the car. looks nice but lacks contrast, especially with the black mtech1 wing on an all white car.

        Luv it!

        Especially the Spoiler

        I'm not to sure on the wheels, but atleast they're nicer than mine.

            No access to PShop otherwise i would [plus a few c'n'b]

            The belt line is the valley region on the bumpers and the door sections. It would create a band around the car in black about 2" thick. Someone on here would be able to do this pretty quickly.

                I see what your talking about. I do have some Motorsport pinstripes that will be going on the car as soon as I have a good day and someone to help me apply. Im working on it!!!

                As for the other wheels, it was real hard to get rid of them. But trying to be purer to the car I went with some known name (rare) wheels that had some lip and gave it more of a euro look. Again the wheels will look better when I have the front dropped another inch.

                Keep the comments coming, thats how I improve!

                  ...

                  The car looks really sick, and looks even better in person. I am digging the mtech 1 wing.

                  What size wheels and tires do you have? I personally think they might look better streched, but you wouldnt be able to tell until your drop it like you want.

                  Call me crazy but i kinda like the amber turn signals and reflectors like in your sig. It will also add some contrast to the car.

                      the wheels are Rial 15x8 and the tires are Toyo RA1's that are 225x45x15. I only drive this car about 100 miles a week and the tires are more set up for my style of driving. This car does and will see track time. No auto-cross but Chin Driving schools.

                      As for the amber lights, in person the clears look 100x's better. I did Pshop the pics a bit and it darkened them up a bit. And to add to contrast of the car, like I said there are the motorsport pinstripes that will be added. So the triple colors will break up the car a bit.


                      The front windshield is tinted 30 percent as well as all other windows. I do not recommend this to most people. It has its disadvantages! Its darker in the picture because of the contrast settings in photoshop.

                          here is the motorsport stripes that will break up the car a bit.

                          Not really feeling the black stripe!
