Excited to see where this goes!

:D

cheers mate. will post up ... gonna be a slow build tho. loved reading through your build thread ... those tiger claws and that stance :drool: :drool: :drool:
 
Went ahead and got myself a set of Calibre GT-R rims, as you say they loose there definition in the gun metal colour, thinking of having them done in AW to match the car, still undecided. Love the aggressive look of the rims :D

wow they actually looks really good in contrast to the white car and goes well with mirrors.... but yes i think white will look much better :D

love that rear dish too :evil:

have you spaced them? is yours lowered? rims with your ride height looks much better than my current 4x4 height lol
 
Thanks Theivz, cars lowered on h&r springs I'm running 10mm spacers on the front, going to try 10mm on the rear as I have a spare set just worried about rubbing, might have to modify the liner :D
 
do it! :evil: lol

can always roll arch or cut liner plus max camber on oem should help :driving:

cant wait to see how it all looks esp with white rims :drool:

Be interested to see them in AW :thumbsup: Perhaps get someone to Photoshop your pic first.
 
A man and his rims ...
Looks good !
It's all about personal choice and
I expect those from the "Gotta Be All Black or Naught" camp would be reeling back in horror. :evil:
I say - It's only paint people!

Cheers and welcome.
Looking forward to your next mod adventure.

Had the lips done in a diamond finish with a clear coat sprayed on as protection, wasn't brave enough to go with the AW :D

you should do a build thread hiltonfa - car deserves its own thread for sure!

Thanks Theivz, sorry about the thread jack, it was not my intention :thumbsup: I've been looking for this design rim for a long time, could not get them here in SA :headbang: so ended up importing a set from BM Auto Sport in the UK.

I dealt with Carrie at BM autosport, as they would not ship to SA, I had to arrange everything from my side, Carrie was very helpful throughout the process. I'm just happy I've finally managed to get a set :D
