Build Progress... Pics!!
Hi everyone , This is my build thread.. Comments are welcomed...
My G when I first got her...
After alot of pre-fitting, bolting, prepping, and half a gallon of bondo I was finally able to get all the parts where i wanted. Now off to paint...
Sanding i left for the shop to do...
After pre-fitting the rear and the sides i took them off so the shop painted them off the car then again to blend into the car...
Painted!!!
Finally got to take my G home!!
After a good wash and wax..
Currently in doing my homework on my next step. New rims, tires, and coilovers. Im pretty sure im going to buy some Volks but im not sure if thier going to be 19' or 20's. As far as offsets go im looking for an aggressive stance. My big issue is looking good but at the same time not sacrificing a drop of handling and performance. Ive been in too many rides that looked great but handled horrible because of the aftermarket rims. If anybody has any input that would be great!
PS: Thanx Hector for all the time and work we put into this car!

And also as far as handling you really dont have to worry about the wheels affecting that too much. Even with stock suspension you wont notice any real difference.
From the coilover aspect if your not going to track your car you would probably be satisfied with Tein basics. They are fairly popular on this forum. Even if you do track the car they still handle reasonable better then stock.

HMMM. Love the sides!
They fit perfectly.
I'm surprised you completely covered the fenders though. Since you had the CF hood, I thought you would have made the fender ducts fade from CF to the blue.
I'm glad you had the time! The only thing that I wouldn't have selected was the rear bumper. Turbo next? haha. Trust me, I've had that front bumper for 4 months and it CRIES - "INTERCOOL SOMETHING AND GO FAST!"
