cracked few alloys so have got one repaired removed camber and fitted 195 40 16s on 7j n 8j instead of the 165 40 16s. no doubt after awhile and ive got it completely fixed and some spare wheels ill run 165s again. price to pay for having crap roads here.

11-26-2009, 04:46 PM
That thing is unique!
Any pics from the side with the camoed wheels?
That subwoofer is enormous and that stretch is insane! Awesome. Would be too much for my cup of tea but it's interesting to see you rocking it.

glad to see you spaced the rears properly. fronts next I hope?
ealy pics were 7js then when i got the red wheels they were 7 and 8js.
front now has the sport axle on it so 7s look abit better, either i get 8s for the front or space the 7s a tad more, not sure yet.
camo being changed to black, grey, white and yellow.

i think the trailer would look better if cut off after the doors. pretty sweet regardless though.
Vermilion
07-31-2011, 11:43 AM
For most of this build I really didn't like what I was seeing, especially the camo rims. But now seeing it in it's current cleaned state, it looks great. A little spacing on the front, maybe even some black dished wheels and it'll be spot on! :) Looking forward to where you're taking it next.
P.S. Love the roof box!
mick_b
07-31-2011, 12:43 PM
i was going to do it from the doors back but it really wouldnt have looked good or been much point for use of a trailer.
im keeping the idea of a van with oem look but with some subtle smoothing and will nail the stance once i have the wheels with fabrication on the axle, im making it to drag and drive low with out worry of a new sump or gearbox, im on my 3rd of each

Im not feeling the black porch wheels if i were u i would paint them silver but other than that its a unique build
mick_b
07-31-2011, 02:18 PM
they went along time ago, ive had 3 sets of porsche wheels since then then standard alloys then back to the steel wheels. till i make my mind up what i want.

with the bumper bra, what you think of it?
ive got a bonnet one and did use the 3m blue tape for the front and side when i went to belguim but i used a hole roll n took ages lol. the bumper one just looks to loose for me really think grit would get behind easy and scratched into the paintwork......
