Alright, so I actually sold the dubs and tires...and got some decent money for them. Now I have been thinking about to do next to the Z...then I came across a video.


Its Atx car on dpe's and its downright sexy. What I am wondering, is what color is that bronze? I know hes lower and on much nicer wheels, but could I pull it off on my te reps?

Also, keep in mind I plan on getting a front lip as well. Leaning towards the mines cf right now and later down the road, possibly cf sides and rear diffuser. So I am not sure if it would all go together.

Other colors im considering is matte black, maybe gold, or just leaving it the way it is. Also, if someone is good at photoshop and has some time, could you do a shop with the dpe bronze color in the video?

 

 

Those are phuckin sexayyyyy Cann. Exhaust sounded like **** though lol.

 

^ Thanks dude.

Sexy is right, but its not my car, just thinking about powdercoating my wheels that bronze color, or black. Yeap, not a fan of single exhuasts...

 

UPDATE

I finally picked up a winter beater last week. 1999 Chevy Cavalier Z24. 5 speed, lower mileage 141 kms (87k miles), came with winter tires and I paid 2 grand I looked at a variety of vehicles; few grand cherokees, a civic, couple infiniti qx4's but they were either overpriced or beat up. Even though I wanted a 4x4 with 4 doors, this thing is great on gas. I can always sell it in the spring if I want something else too.

I apologize for the **** quality of the pictures, just using my bb. I ain't got no fancy camera





With that said, I washed the Z and parked her in the garage.







I am going to use this as my progression thread because I plan on acquiring some items over the winter and doing a few little projects. So I will update accordingly.

 

I think dark bronze would look good on the varrs, nice progress so far

 

Looks so much better. Good job even though I would have preferred non reps, but not my Z. Keep going upward, don't go backwards now.

 

I agree, but I needed something quick to replace the chromies. These popped up locally so I picked them up. Once the tires wear out, I am thinking of selling them and picking up some real wheels with slightly higher offset and going with wider tires. Until then, I have some other stuff I want to do to the car first.
