That's right...It feels like it has been forever. Problem after problem with getting certain parts squared away. This is my entire summer trim minus the spoiler. Being repainted and should have it in a day or two. It doesn't look bad at all without the spoiler now IMO.



Well, you are gonna either love it or hate it... :)

Currently the body of the car has NXTx1 and S100x1, the body kit has SGx3 and the rims are bare because they were painted a few days ago. If the colors seem a slight bit off, you now know why :)



Enjoy!
 
You have different trim models for the different seasons? I can only afford to switch from Yakima Powderhounds over to the Kayak Stackers:D



Not usually a fan of custom sleds, but yours always looks sweet:up
 
I LOVE IT! VERY different, very original!



The wheels look mint. I have been considering a set of red gabs or more likely rota gt3's on my EBP myself.



Did you have the wheels powder coated?
 
Thanks for all the compliments! It really feels great to have her back how I want her. :)



Spilchy:



Yeah, I have some good mods to match the look.

ebpcivicsi: Yeah, I see the Gab's and Gab Knock Offs are coming in red now. I have only seen one car with them (and it was online). People definately double take my car now. Not everyday do you see red rims on a red car :). They were actually painted by my body guy who did my car. I'm pretty sure he used that new CeramiClear PPG clearcoat that is much stronger. However, if I ever have any problems, he will fix it at no charge.

I think the black/gunmetal wheels look 100% better than the colormatched ones



engine needs some boost! :)

The reason I changed away from gunmetal rims is because they are coming much too mainstream. You can even get gunmetal hubcaps now. When something on a rim comes in a hub you now that its soo popular that you are not unique anymore.



I had to find a color that looked good, but was still original. I believe I found the combo here :)



No boost needed. I think my car moves quite well as is. I lost to an E36 M3 (drop in K&N) by all but 1.5 car lengths. Yes I lost, but I had a good idea of how my car runs. Those M3's run low 14, high 13 quarters so I think it's safe to say my car is into the 14's which was my goal. NY is no place to street race and the nearest track (40 mins) is being shut down. Modding a car to the '9' engine wise is slowly dying around here. :(
 
Whoring some more pics :D

BTW: The calipers are being painted silver since 1) they don't match perfectly and 2) to bring out the silver in the lip and center cap.
 
Lookin good man! Gotta spend the $100 and get that ding in the passenger's door fixed though, that immediately drew my eye ;)



I like the rims a lot, very unique and much better than your winter rims :D



How on earth did you find someone to tint your windshield?!?
 
Red looks alot better with your setup than with black wheels imho.



Now take care of those wheel wells with some shiny liquid and you are set! :)
 
Clean and dress your wheel wells, sir!



:) I like it. I don't like the wheels very much, but I see why you changed them. Everybody and their llama has gunmetal wheels.
 
Me likey! Very unique indeed. So how long until everybody starts color matchin your rims? hahaha. Get that spoiler on there so we can vote!
 
ok I will give my .03$





Love the red!

Like the body kit!

Like the wheels!

Leave off the wing, it looks much cleaner with out!
