I have a few ambitions for modding it, but I'm a newbie to modding so need some guidance from you pros! I'd like to:
- Wrap the lower bar on the front bumper in black
- Wrap/paint the rear valance in black
- Maybe wrap the wing mirror covers in black
- Tint all of the windows
- Polish off the tail pipes down to their chrome layer
- Lower the car to get the stance looking just right so that the wheel arches are nicely filled
- Swap the grills for full black grill (either de-chrome or new all-black grill)
- Upgrade Angel Eyes to pure white, either LUX or eBay job - looking at the can bus 120w bulbs
- Paint brake callipers (Red I think to match interior)
- Front and side splitters a la M Performance Style/3D Design style
- What sort of cost am I looking at for wrapping the front bumper and back bumper and wing mirrors, or would you recommend wrapping or plasti-dip or painting them myself? Anyone been to TLC Detailing in Stirling?
- Anyone got the Canbus 120w led angel eye bulbs off eBay? How do you find them? reliable?
My biggest aim is to swap the 18" 325m alloys for something bigger and more aggressive, and get non-run-flats. I've looked at a lot of different wheels (such as veeman vfs24s - mrwilks' look so good, 326m, AVA Memphis, and 313ms), and though I wanted 326ms when I shopped around, but I think I'd like a set of M437s or replicas (since OEM is so expensive). They look really awesome on this Z that I saw on zpost:
What tyre sizes should I be looking at? I've tried to search the internet for clues but I'm a bit stumped as it seems to vary car to car and people seem to have mixed issues with rubbing on the wheel arches.
Also, I know it sounds stupid, but if I bought a set of alloys where would I get them fitted since I can't do them myself (which a lot of you seem to do). Just any garage? Kwik Fit?
I've also looked into stances on here but you all have such strong and varied opinions on what stance even means, so its hard to decipher how to get the right look for my wheels. If I look at the current 18" wheels, I'd like the rears to sit wider than they do currently. Fronts I think are ok.
Sorry for the long post and lots of questions, but I figure you all seem to know a lot about all of this so would be a great help!
