Put the new tires on 225/50/15 and painted the stock balogna slicers black and left the lip aluminum. Just need to drop it and finish off the interior then I can insure and register it…then blow an apex seal.

And a shot of the Corksport Single…

 

Car looks very good! If you lowered it, it would look MEAN! i love black wheels! very nice!

 

NICE! I'm not usually a fan of black wheels, but a bit of brightness really helps those wheels look good.

Here's the car dropped in Photoshop:

 

How do you go about doing that type of stuff in photoshop? Which tool do you use to do it??

Silouhette the chassis—without the wheels—with the freehand selection tool, cut, paste onto a new layer, adjust the layer to your liking, clone the background with 45px cloning brush to fill where the car "was."

 

ah, did u raise ur car? man my springs must be shot cuz my car is like 3-4inchs lower than yours.

 

LOL! Man, I can't stand how high the car sits. The previous owner had new springs and struts installed about two years ago. Thi was the same guy who had an entire 1.75" exhaust welded INTO the exhaust manifold. I'm looking at either cutting or finding cheap coilovers—soon!

Thanks

 

Mine sat kindof high in the back... so I cut out a few coils!!
Now it sits nice and flat- a bit of camber in the rear wheels now- I would't go any lower than I did- (-cut about 2" off the extended spring)

I also painted my wheels- I use special Duplicolor Graphite metallic wheel paint, on 9 vent TII wheels. I too left the rim polished. Though the paint finish turned out perfect, they just doesn't look right... maybe I shoud do the centercap yellow or something. (it's polished right now too)
They look VERY sweet off the car, but maybe it's because the car is black.... doesn't quite look right.

Sorry- no pics.
