What paint did you used on the tail lights?

[MC Hammered]

Hit up the boys at Gutenparts, ZM Blue Devil (Levent) or Brewcity11 (Turk), as they made them.

Well do I have a surprise in store for you!:up:

Did you get my package yet?

[MC Hammered]

The boxes have arrived in Canada Aug 20th but not delivered to me yet.

The wait is driving me nuts. :(

Or are you referring to a different package?

[MC Hammered]

Two big boxes from Germany



a teaser of what is inside



Picked this hardtop up for $200. Going to strip it down, seal and paint it.

Me neither. Should be sweet!

I dropped off the wheels to my wheel refinishing shop this afternoon to have them freshened up so I have to wait too.

Looks like Borbet Type B's? Plus that hardtop is going to look awesome once it's done. Seriously one of my favorite verts on the board.

[MC Hammered]

Thanks for the kind words.

Maintaining the polished raw aluminum wheels, especially between the bolts with a Q-Tip, just got a bit tedious.

So I decided to go from the chunky look to deep dish, low cruiser Euro style.

[MC Hammered]

The Borbet's had a bit of rash and some clearcoat issues so I dropeed them off at Panther Precision for refinishing. When I got there to pick them up the wheels looked stunning!



I have little wheel gap with my 225/45/16 setup as shown here



but when I test fit the Borbets with 215/40/16's there is some massive wheel gap going on!




Can't roll around like that with these wheels so I adjusted the ride height.

Driver side done







Passenger side done



How it looks now 1" lower in the front (22.25" fender to ground), 1/2" lower in the rear (22" fender to ground)






Not slammed but pretty low



Took the car for a afternoon cruise and I'm glad I have an ejnight skidplate as it took 5 good shots already. Look like I'm going to need a bit stiffer spring in the front.

Nice, those new wheels look so sick, thumbs up!

[HowieE30]

First up! The interior, it is way to cool!
Second, Borbet's can't FAIL! Looks stunning : ))

Search for ejnight. He is a forum sponsor on here that makes skid plates.

I'm in love with this car, when is she going in for paint? Are you going to take to any shows and enter her? Magazines? She needs to be in pictures.
