Finally got these bad boys on

[OhSchnapps]

Sometimes the simplest answers are right under your nose. It took me months to figure out how to get them on. What do you think?

 

[OhSchnapps]

Bump. Thanks guys. (squinty)

 

[igni]

Sweet diggity.

 

[Nutari]

Got what on? the wheels?

 

[CorkSport]

The FD wheels look great on the 626!

 

[sethro_GT]

yeah they do. Thats some fat rubber.

 

[Nutari]

oh.. hah. couldnt tell from just the thumbnails.

 

[OhSchnapps]

Thanks for the replies guys. Now for my next question: Paint them black, or leave them?

 

[sethro_GT]

I wouldn't go black until you painted the grill.

Then the sports car black wouldn' clash with the family sedan chrome.

Though I looked again, did you paint the center of the grill already? imo, body color grille = sport

 

[JC-MP5]

Mmmmm FD's. (bowdown)

 

[OhSchnapps]

the center of the grille was already black, but i painted the emblem black myself. I would like to paint the rest of the grille black, but i dont know how to get it off the car. The emblem just popped right off, the chrome part of the grille i think is attatched pretty well.

 

[sethro_GT]

grill's aren't too tough. A couple screws on the top the a bunch of clips like the below image. Just have to push the center of the clip till it lines up with the hole and pops out.

 

[OhSchnapps]

WOW..... the grill came right off. no screws, just four wimpy clips and thats it lol. too bad i dont have my paint on me.

 

[sleepingciv]

looks good man need more low though lol

 

[sean22306]

Me likes. Agree, lower it some. Not sure what would look better, black or a dark gunmetal like grey.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

FDs just work on everything. its the damnedest thing.

 

[sethro_GT]

Thats the magic of a simple five spoke wheels, they make every car look like a sports car.

 

[OhSchnapps]

I will be lowering it as soon as i have enough time and money (my friend is selling me coilovers for $50, let's hope they fit on my baby). I will also be getting the wheels painted black professionally for about $400 (ouch). Again, money is the key factor here. And no, i am not getting them powder coated.

 

[Golohiagat]

Bad boys?

Not that bad boy I must say...
