Default NightCrawleR's Project ( phase 2: Bodykit ) Do-luck

Hi guys..

well. i've been doing some work on the car. and just finished with the FI build ( 90% ) still working on final touchs then will post in a separate thread.

since its summer and temps here are almost 50+C, i decided to do all the needed upgrades till the weather cools down a bit.

i decided on the following for the exterior:

1) Do-luck Wide bodykit
2) Volk SF winning 19"
3) Spacers in the back 20mm as of now.. i might go for 25mm
4) Custom color ( need to decide on the same. please suggest )

below are some pics of the install.

and will try to keep this thread updated.































have to paint the car black as it was before in order to get permession for the color change, i didnt know that, so we had to paint it with any shitty paint, even the finishing is soo bad.. but to just to get the permession.












thoughts !!

as i mentioned in the OP, its a temp shitty paint just to get the paperwork done.

in Dubai, if you want to change the color, you need to get your car inspected by the CID and get a non-objection letter to change the color. then you do the change and get your car registration card changed with the new color.

i didnt know that and i started working on the car before getting that paper. so i had to just spray it with black paint. before even finishing the kit preparation in order to get the paper . then the car will be back to finish up the paint properly

I think you should have the body shop imitate the sharp curvature of the do-luck fenders on the doors

I say stick with a nero black or sim ppg match. Also, go with a wheel
made for your setup. Screw spacers. There are so many more options
than gt-s' surely. Virtually any custom offset work wheel would be a
better choice. Stay simple and you're GOLDEN.
