Just painted my MP3 racinghearts

[FlipSyde94]

Just did them the other night decided to change it. I think they look pretty good for a $7 paint job. I had to put away the 18's for the winter.

thanks for the compliments. The fender came like that when I bought the car. I tried to get an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it and it appears that it would be cheaper to just buy a new fender. Do you know anyone selling a laser blue passenger side fender?

What color is that, i have been wanting to paint one of my RC Cars that color. Thanks

normaly I think painted rims are ugly, but those look really nice!

IMO the painted racing harts look better than your other wheel set.

Agreed, the RH's are hot, the others are not.

I would like to have a set of bronze MP3 wheels on my MSP. I thought about powdercoating the MSP wheels but I dont think they would look as good.

Rims look good! Those are your Winter wheels!!

That's a nice door ding on the passenger side...ouch!

 

[FlipSyde94]

Thanks for all the remarks. I do have an odd question though. I have been driving on these wheels for about a week now and maybe it's just me but my RPM's are up 500rpm's on about the same speed as I was before when I was running the 18's. I know the diffrence in size make some diffrence but I don't think it should make that big of a change. Gas is going down faster and I'm thinking about swithching back to the 18's if this keeps up. My question is when your going 80MPH what is your RPM at? If anyone can tell me that way I can check to see if mine is at normal range. Thanks, Ed

my p5 is at like 4k rpm at 80

 

[FlipSyde94]

Thanks toucci
Mine is at about 4200. I'm thinking I might need a tune up or something. I do tune up tomorrow and will check if there is any diffrence.

HOLY CRAP! theres a forum member in North Dakota? I might have to hit you up the next time I am visiting family in South Dakota.

 

[FlipSyde94]

LoL, Actuall there are quite a few P5's up here along with two other MP3's that I have seen. I'm actually leaving on the 1st of Nov to head down to Shreveport, Louisiana. I've been here too long and finally moving to a warmer place.

The paintjob is good looking and makes the MP3 look like the JDM Sport20!
