  • Kia Forte Koup from Florida

    This is my 2012 Kia forte koup, going to keep this updated as i go along now, as its sits now im going for a rocket bunny type look hope you guys like it Tons of plans are in the work right now for it! One of them is going bags in the next month or two

    Mods:
    Wheels: 3sdm 0.06
    Wheels specs: 18x8.5 40off 18x9.5 40off/ 215/40 tires
    Suspension: Megan racing coilovers maxed in the front and rear with cut coils
    Headlights are quad retrofitted with paint matched shrouds
    Turbokits 2.5 catback and Cai
    UR front Strut Bar
    Custom rocket bunny trunk

    This is how my car sits right now



    Custom shaved rear trunk, some of these pictures are before i went lower

    It all started sometime in 2012 when i picked up this car brand new off the lot after my ford exploder shot a rod haha oopps



    Not shortly after i decided to buy myself some lowering springs and xxrs cause they were relatively cheap



    JESUS just look at that horrid wheel gap and ugly pinstriping haha i thought it looked amazing at the time :P

    Skipp months down the line i got tired of riding around sky high and bought myself some megan racing coilovers this is where i started to want a real set a wheels and start changing it up and do somthing crazy!



    Got my new headlights on the car and was ready to drop my car off at the shop to get my custom trunk done at Rogue Auto Works W0000000000000t



    Then i got it back a week later, i shit my pants cause it came out better then i had in-visioned it now i needed a pair of wheels to set off my car, i searched for about 2 months before finding the wheel i really wanted, almost went with 3sdm 0.05s and cc10s but i eneded up picking 3sdm 0.06 even though i didnt like them as much as the others at the time i gave it a try Few weeks later they arrived at my door step



    The mirror finish is soooo shiny but chips so easily so a few days later i got my old tires put on and got rid of my butthash xxrs









    then a few weeks ago i decided to cut my rear springs and max my fronts out, im at a dead stop in the front of going anylower and my axle rides my frame nonstop now, but bags are coming soon so i can ride it out for now



    Chillin in the driveway in front of my fiances tropic orange vr6 rocking 3sdms



    Next wheel setup i wanna go ALOT more aggressive, and im doing some more custom work soon on the car. Got a few goodies for the car coming in gotta test fit the sideskirts and front lip :P, more to come soon
