Well I got the car back today from the body shop. They did a good job, but I need to take it back in a week so then can sand a few blemishes. Overall I am happy with the job they did. The body shop is auto electric and collision in Hallandale, FL. Here are some pics. The car is dirty cause it rained 2 minutes after they waxed it. I will Zaino her up soon and make a new thread. Enjoy!

 

last ones.

 

Ohhhhhhhhh so pretty... Finally you got it painted. Black on Black owns.

 

amazing.........cant wait to see it in person...........no need to get rid of the wheels.........jst need some limo tint..........wow thats amazing

 

looks great,

did you ever order the new wheels?

i finally ordered mine, they arrive tomorrow.

 

Looks great. The car looks pretty mean now, especially with the FMIC being visible in the front. Looks like a clean install and good color match too.

Is the car lowered at all?

 

The car is not lowered yet. I am getting Tein Flex with EDFC in Dec, but I am not going to drop it drastically. Maybe 1" in front and like .5-.75" in the back.

 

Were you in Carolina Recently getting some work done, or for a meet? A bunch of people thought it was my car since our wheels look pretty similar.

 

Yes. Cprace installed my PLX R-500, fixed the hack job my previous shop did, and tuned my car. I picked my car up on the dyno day, so I stuck around for the evening.

 

Not yet. I still am getting different offsets for the front. I am affraid to order, wait the 3 months, and then they don't clear.

when do you get your wheels?

If anyone on this thread knows the answer please help. I want to get Volk GT-7's 19 x 9.5 in the front and 19 x 10.5 in the back. I know the offset for the back is +24, but I have been told that the front is +17,+23, and +30. Which one will work. I have brembos and I want the lips as deep as possible.

 

I was just in Miami this past weekend! I ask myself everytime I get on the plane to come back "Why and what exactly am I going home for!"

Went to "The Bed" on South beach and some other place called "Irish" something to watch the fight!
I'm just trying to get a realistic price range.


Check your PM

 

my new wheels(in sig) will be here tomorrow and hopefully installed friday.

i had GT7s, 19x8.5 in front with +23, and the lip was about 2 inches. 19x10.5 in the rear +24 and the lip was about 4 inches. id go with the 9.5 because the 8.5 looked too skinny, it was too much of a difference and it didnt look as good as a 9.5/10.5 setup. good luck.

 

Nice! Please post pics after you install them.


Can I go with the +23 offset if I go with the 9.5 up front instead of the 8.5.

 

hmm, i dont see why not, although im not exactly sure since mine were an inch skinnier, im sure you can find some pics of 9.5 +23s.

 

Looking good GMan. I thought you were getting the widebody kit though?

 

No, just the regular.

 

nice

 

I see GMan. So the quest for the perfect G is over..........for now. :P

 

GMAN, looks sweet. I'd paint that bar inside the mesh in front black though...

 

Yeah, I am going to do that. I didn't know about the bar before the install, so I never told the body shop anything.
