Well, I played around in photoshop and made a picture of my car. This is the look Im shooting for, plus a body kit. Unfortunatly, I cant find white Kosies anywhere anymore .

hey RMD, there was a gslse that looked just like that except the rims werent kosei but they looked exactly like them, thats a spittin image of the car around here, unfortunatly it got stolen and they never found it

 

Are you talking about RX7Passions car? Cause he found his. What was left of it anyway .

~T.J.

 

Thats a white mother ******,,man is that white.

 

Damn that's nice.

Mine will be heading in a similar direction, except I'll have a green pearl thrown in the white and the car will roll on 17" gold centered Simmons (like AJC13B has).

Here is a bad photochop job I did ages ago.

 

naw rmd it wasnt his car it was some neighbors car here in Los Angeles

 

Ok guys, try not to laugh too hard, but here is another attempt at phtoshopping the body kit I want on. I couldnt get the angle right for the air dam because the pictures were taken at totaly differnt angles, and the air dam was off a yellow car, so color was a problem, then the side skirts, spoiler, and rear bumper were on a blue car, so I had to try and make those white too. Anyway, its not that great (not bad for my VERY first try though), but here it is...

wow man you are really good with photo shop..

Haha, you should see some of the GOOD people here work with it...
Only if its simple, lol .

I got an illegal tint ticket when I was 16 for having my whole windshield tinted like that. I had 35% on the whole thing and a 5% strip up top. Then 20% on the front side windows and 5% on the rest.

 

Yeah, I dont know what our tint laws are here. I just know I wanna push it to the edge of the envelope without going over, and also still able to see when backing up and what not.

~T.J.

 

it all depends where you live.

RMD... wouldnt it have been easier to photoshop the details you want onto a picture of a car that already had a body kit, rather than pshoping the kit onto your own car?

 

Yeah, but that takes the fun out of practicing .

~T.J.

 

Oh...Lookie what I found. Its from the International Window Film Association. Just in case anyone is interested. Looks like Im not getting my windshield tinted. Legally anyway...

the white kosi's look kinda off with the paint color of the car,

if you could get them pearl coated it would give them that slightly yellow hue and they would fade red to green to purple when the light on different angles hits them, and they would still be white.

 

No offense, but all that white makes it look like a larvae.

 

LOL... I Like it

I like it too TJ. And thats a pretty damn nice photochop job! Maybe I can get you to do a photochop hack for me. I promise it wouldnt be a difficult one. And check your PM's man!

 

Did you say you cant find the Kosies anywhere?? www.tirerack.com has them. Thats where I got mine. Paid like $149 per wheel, came to around $1300 with my $160 tires.....

 

Yeah, they have the silver ones...I want white ones...

~T.J.

 

ahhh ok, I dont know where to find the white ones.....
Ill check in my Sport Compact Car magazine and see if they have them. I know I saw them in there a few months ago.

 

Yeah, Tire Rack used to carry the white ones too back in the day...

~T.J.

 

Just get the silver ones powder coated.

 

Im pretty sure they dont make the white or anchrite ones with the correct offset for our cars anymore. I tried to pull some teeth from tirerack.com. But this was all i got.

"Hello Shawn,

Thank you very much for the inquiry. At one time the Kosei's were
available in anthracite but now I would only have silver painted for you
at this time for $ 149 each. Please feel free to contact me.

Best Regards,

George 800 428 8355 e280

Looks like if you want white ones you have 3 options:

Buy the Silver ones. Sandblastem. Get the powder coated white.

Find some used white ones.

Try and special order them from japan. They might still have them over seas.

Oh yeah. Check out www.yahoo.co.jp and go to auctions. Search for "sa22c" And you will find TONS! of stuff for our cars. you can translate it with babelfish. Seems like yahoo auctions is way bigger over there.
