i dont think there will be any exterior pink other than maybe some lil advertising shop stickers. nick didnt want the whole car pink so we agreed just the wheels would be pink

and someone already came and picked the money up lol sorry

and thanks everyone for the compliments

the whole car will be done hopefulllly by spring.. so i can maybe take it to mfba

The sig pic is when it had some spring/shock combo on it.

Now it has
Megan "street" coilovers.
Megan Strut bars
Megan Sway bars
Megan Rear toe arms
Megan Traction arms
Megan RUCA
Tein Tie rods
polyurethane bushings throughout the whole car.

Car should handle pretty well.

Wheels look nice, although I would ditch the valve stem caps, those caps are known to freeze themself to the stem (chemical reaction) so when you go to put some air in the tires you can't get the valve stem off. When I worked at TP that was a big issue with those caps.

LIZMO
12-15-2008, 05:16 PM
uh oh... maybe ill get new caps. i only got them cuz they were like half off or something,

the rest of the car looks like my signature, it needs body work and paint, but thats coming next winter or whenever i get enough money.

and nick rides w/ flare when he drives my daily car since the hood is pink and trunk is dark purple lolllll

Voodoo Chick

Well, the brightly colored wheels should look nice against the car's dark body, I think. I saw at a car show last year a black '69 Challenger, with flourescent orange-red wheels, and it looked fantastic. Odd color combinations really stand out, and look awesome, in my opinion.
