Lookin sick man!!! finally is all together and looks AWESOME. I think I am going with that same brake rotor/pad setup!!! But OCautosports has yet to get back to me!!!

 

looks really good, i would go with 40 series tires too...

now just some tire shine and you're ready to roll

 

Unfortunately not “all together” … I’m too finicky I guess – I’m looking into re-painting the window trim (3rd time) a bit darker (shoulda waited for the wheels, but I knew once it was done the color was too light)… plus, for some reason I’m the only one that seems to think the mirror bezel should be same color as window trim – everyone else I ask thinks existing body color is the way to go… I’m really starting to think I’m all phucked up (or maybe just never satisfied? )

Thanks for the kind comments though - PM me your name and I’ll see if I can get OCAutosports to reply for you… Their customer service was actually exceptional for me! Hand delivered all parts on a Saturday!

 

I'm really liking those wheels, good job!

 

I know... what an embarrassment: icon33: I debated but couldn’t wait (not as bad as my grille less Kurukie bumper pics

Every time I spend the 3 hours washing the car, it goes to one shop or another and looks like crappola within 2 days

The pics are from today’s install... shoulda waited for Grants photo shoot!

I'm very close to being done (if not fed-up) with the aesthetic stuff... then professional detail and Mr. Photo-aka "G'dUpSedan" pics... Those will be much more worthy!

 

Looks great Mike! By the way I got a great deal on clear bra from Spal Shield PM me

 

Great setup. It looks beautiful. Now I want to see an angle with the new bumper. I am still waiting for mine to get painted. Other than that looking good.

 

very nice. good choice of rims..

 

Ahhh those look perfect! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

Soooo glad you went with 19's.

 

Looks GREAT, Mike! glad i could help you out choosing the offsets/tire sizes. and cant wait to do your photoshoot!
-GP-

 

for those that requested angle shots with the Kurukie... here ya go (better ones from Grant soon)

 

You should post a before picture. It's amazing how far your car has come in the last few months!

 

yeah... originally the idea was semi-sleeper with little things that set it apart from others... I'm not sure what got into me, but I like the more aggressive look now... the wheels issue was a plan to have been taken care of a long time ago when the OEM tires wore out - but the plan took another direction... once the bumper was on all every kept saying is “get wheels NOW!”

Maybe I'll do a compilation after Grant works his magic... in the mean time, for those that haven’t seen it - here's what the car looked like before the bumper, wheels, and ancillary paint:

 

Looks sick man! I'll be picking up this bumper too in the next week or 2!!!!

 

hey mike, love the wheels! glad they're on finally! IMO the 40 series look perfect, sits nice! I can't wait to see your centers done, I need to do something about mine soon

Have you thought about color matching the front factory splash guards? IMO the bumper still looks like it sits a bit lower than the sides, and the splash guards would finish it off nicely, I am a bit biased though

edit: I just looked at the pix again, the front doesn't sit lower, but it always looks like it does, maybe because of the flare...hmm...I still think the front splash guards would look nice though
