I will get some more pics here in the next couple of days. The entire car is in the flat orange rust inhibiting primer. The next urethane primer is a grayish color. The guy doing all the paint/body work got injured and tore some tendons in his right hand. He had to get surgery and is in a cast for the next four weeks. This will delay the time frame for completion.

Sorry to hear that.....the urethane primer in a grayish color should make it look sick. Def want to see the outcome of all this, great job so far!

hey sorry to hear about the delay on your car man...here's some inspiration to look forward too. finally got the pics resized.

Nice pics! I think I saw them on NASIOC as well. Only thing I don't like is the canards. I sold the APR canards that came with my widebody kit. I am also going to mount my front APR diffuser underneath with out having to use the rods...

Nice bike too!

Thanks for the compliments (and opinions) on my car. i definetly agree it would look cleaner without the canards and rods but i dont hate them and they are functional (although the canards are not large enough to provide massive front downforce like the crawford canards...its all personal preference...i cant wait to see your car...i havent yet seen a 05 widebody, everyone always converts to 06' front end for some reason...I will purchase the diffuser on the rear soon but am trying to finish my car for the track event on may 25th. i still need to get my car to RobiSpec for my suspension and get my stoptechs and put them on. ill post new pics of my car after the suspension is on...good luck with your car and i will be anxiously awaiting pictures.

coolblue05 · 04-24-2008, 06:14 AM

Which stoptech's did you go with? The 6 piston?

munky69 · 04-24-2008, 06:34 AM

that'll be pretty sick when you lower it sog...hope your paint guy is getting better coolblue

***SOGSTI420*** · 04-24-2008, 03:20 PM

im going with the gold 6 piston calipers and slotted rotors

and munky....i will be taking my car to RobiSpec around the middle of may to have my KW Variant 3's installed, corner balanced and aligned as well as various other suspension mods i have...mainly bushings and stuff
