BoostedSpd6's Build Thread

I'd agree that blue would be a bit too much, and black might make them nearly invisible... so maybe a nice gunmnetal or charcoal? Or even blachrome!
 
woot!! updated my mods list, added 2 new pictures (JBR SSP) (Interior shot)

ohh and rolled the rear fenders today..

nice pics meng!
werent you shocked by the size of those rear fender lips?
just got mine rolled this Sat too, now i need to upgrade to 20mm spacers to be flush in back agian haha.
 
theres actually a dual lip.. the outer lip which you can see and then if u feel the inside of it theres another lip thats a 1/4 shoter then it.. so really ur pushing back the thickness of 2 lips rather then 1 while you roll them.. its cool.. im guessing the inner lip is the skin of the car..
 
oh weird, i must have not reached far enough to feel that second one.
well wraping that larger lip over the small one hopefully means those quarter panels will retain their rigidity over time.

*crosses fingers*
 
Whats size tires are you running on the OZ's. Im going to get a set myself after this Xmas and run them next summer (running the tires off that are on it now). I just saw you rolled the fenders....My guess was to run the 18X7's with 215 45's to avoid doing that.
 
running 225/45/18's and the O.Z.'s are 18x8.. i rolled the rear fenders slightly. honestly it was well worth it for me to get the 18x8's..

gotta thanks chris (subspeed6) for this one..:)
 
Damn that is probably the cleanest speed6 that I've ever seen. No joke.

Thanks man.. i clean it every other day.. the pollen is killing me as of late. Kimbo (the cars nickname) will lay dorment for 3 months during the build.. When it comes back you will be able to eat off of every part of the car, but then youll have to clean it up (lol2)

Hahaha yeah I feel you with the whole clean it every other day.

Damned dark cars.


Prettiest cars on the road when they are clean, but as soon as they get dirty its a different story haha.
 
Gotta keep showing the car love! Can't wait to see how it ends up after the new engine build and big turbo upgrade!
