anyone wants my wheel? I'll sell it for CHEAP. $2950. Excellent condition.

If you're not from SJ, just send UPS/DHL/Fedex to my door and pick it up (on your tab)

Bubble, you are officially a MOD ADDICT!

You need a 12-step program.

I can’t wait to see the final results in person!

BTW who is doing your bodywork?

you sand down the metal part on the car and the flare. Apply "Kitty Hair" (fiberglass material, very strong) then many layer of body filler.

ok thats what i figured but it always seemed a lil shaky to hold the fenders onto the car just by using the fg at the seam of the fender and the oem body.. but i gues its really strong.

I want too but i don't know where to relocate since it's Roadster. Any suggestion? About to modify the exhaut tip to the size of the car but i already bought HKS...so cancelled that modification.

BTW, did you get your Rotora yet?

What about putting it behind the license plate and having the plate on a fold down bracket. I think that's the way mazoo (screen name spelling?) did his. He's the one with the custom yellow Wald wide-body. I think I remember him putting it there.



No on Rotora. I've decided on Stoptech. I didn't realize at the time you and I were talking, but, a good friend of mine is sponsored by them through his race team. I'm going through him and getting his discount. Came out cheaper that way. I don't approve of their sales tactics, but I like the product. I had to put all that on hold however. Long story short. Do-Luck wide-body still isn't in yet--->I have to get new Volk rear wheels with super negative offsets--->everyone has advised me to wait until all that is completed and on the car, to measure and make sure everything fits properly.

it's true to wait for the car to finish then get your wheel... just like me now. HOWEVER, there will be 4-8 weeks waiting if you're going to special order your wheel.

About gas cap, i'll think about it. Don't want to do the same as other Yellow Wald. Not orginial anymore...hehe

Well my situation is a little different since you are like 100% custom. Mackin has already given me the offsets I need for the Do-Luck WideBody.

Waiting? Hell, I waited 7 months for my Volks I have now. Do-Luck is on 8 months right now with no end in sight. If there's anything you need, don't let me order it.

Here is the link to the pic of the gas cap.
