A Couple Pictures. Now Lower With New Wheels

[CHIF8008]

to pull off that small of a tire your gonna need to be about 2 inches lower. but i highly doubt that's gonna happen.

very nice non the less.

Should look good once you get better sized tires on there. Keep those divingboards!

Looks good. I <3 4-doors.

Almost everything looks like crap, except the paint., then again you are a (college kid=budget minded)

Your car will perform and look better soon enough, just keep it looking clean and Do Not ghetto-tize it.
Only word of advice for now, remove vulva lip & huge spacers.

I think it looks good. Like others have said, it needs a few minor things, but it' still looks really good. The wheels look sick with that color actually. I have an '87 e model parts car that im pretty sure is the same color, good job on making it work. It's tough being in college trying to set up a car like this, thats why i finished mine about a year after i graduated

An regarding turn signals, you can get cheap clear ones on ebay i believe.

Nice work so far :up:

Yeah i need any info on where to find a 175-50 or a 185-50. The tires are so small that it is nearly impossible to drive on my shitty pennsylvania roads. The oilpan is a 1/4 inch off the ground as well as the subframe and the exhaust is about 1/16 inch off the ground. until i can find the tire sizes needed i will most likely just bite the bullet and raise the front a little and add to the wheel gap unfortunately.

what do you mean huge spacers? Theres a 6mm spacer on the front just to clear the brakes and strut, and theres currently no spacer in the rear, although i am getting a 15mm spacer to space it out and make it flush.

Somehow, I was under the impression that you were on very long spacers but now, I retract that comment.

Is that calypso or burg? I can't tell.

Fuck all the haters, if you like it rock it. Although, I agree with all the haters comments. The Volvo lip looks like a swollen vagina.

its burgundrot, and the lip isnt usually even on, it was a suggestion by a friend of mine and the photographer. and most of what there saying i agree with and want to change on my own, especially the tire size.

anything less than a 195/50 is gonna still look bizarre and ride like hell on there.

the tires you have now work on mk1 vws and that's about it. and even they don't run them on 8.5s.

I love that paint color. Seems to work with those wheels and diving boards. With an "IS" or "I" lip and proper tires, your whip should look pretty clean and original. I actually like the matte black bumpers but from the pics it would appear that you could use a few more coats.

FYI an "I" lip is only about $50 from pelican parts

Car looks good! love that color. Take that lip off though...


Keep it classy!

[ACHTUNG]

Love the color!

yes, chrome kidney and different front lip.
