5 YEARS IN STORAGE, time for some upgrades
 

my car has been sleeping for 5 years now,

Spirit R facelift few years ago but I want to refresh it , repainting it in volcano red and was thinking about ronin rear render

( molded pettit flares) with the re-rear diffuser and same wheels but with more aggressive offset.
Not sure sure if I want to keep the 99 spec rear wing.


Let me know what do you think guys

I'm not a fan of the rear quarters, but then I don't like modifications to shells.

That being said, the car looks good now!

All that. Get some shorter springs if you want to improve looks and performance.

If you want to improve looks, then dont paint it red :lol:

thanks I did the all the spirit r modifications for the past 13 years,

haven't drove a lot , car has only 31 000 miles.

was thinking about the feed (rear molded) and front fender too :scratch:

haha, I want to paint it in a very dark red

I have short springs , the picture make it look a little high...

Your car looks fantastic. The rear flares would look great but I think you need wheels with a deep lip for the full effect. I like hre and iforged.

I also had painted my first fd a 3 stage dark red metallic paint and was really happy with the result. Vintage red is classic but I like dark reds over orangy reds. Look at imola red from BMW or laser red from mustang, Magnetic red II on a vette is great also

Thanks for the Feedback!

I was thinking about running the same wheels but with a more aggressive offset like 295/30/18 18 x 10.5 et 22 in the rear
now I am running 255/35/18 with 18x9.5 et 34

color now on my fd is rx8 velocity red


was thinking about volcano red from Mclaren

Conversion looks good. I'm not big on the ronin look but I know a guy that is selling his Pettit flares if you're interested.

Volcano red looks good. The wheels on re McLaren almost match yours
