Flippen awsome man!! get some vids up when shes tuned

and lemme know how you like the gt30!

amg destroyer · 03-05-2008, 06:46 AM

Glad to hear you got all of the parts in. Any pics?

importfanatic17 · 03-05-2008, 10:09 AM

Wow! That is a lot of stuff to install. Do you have any new pics and you know we want vids and charts once you are tuned

.

05cgm · 03-05-2008, 07:43 PM

Thanks guys. I will do my best to get some new pics but work has me there so late that it is dark when I leave for work and dark again when I get home. Not so good for pics of the outside but should be able to get some decent ones of the engine bay. I was able to pick up my helmet today from my buddy at Creations n Chrome. He sprayed the helmet entirely in this new chrome base, then went to work using black, blue and red candy paint. Went a little heavy on the black but still looks great and gives a cool effect in the sunlight.

MKTURBO · 03-05-2008, 07:53 PM

helmet looks great! BTW any fender modding with the toyos?

05cgm · 03-05-2008, 07:59 PM

Thanks. Front seems to fit just fine with -2 camber. Rear definitely needs an alignment for more camber (I am at almost 0 camber since I installed my lateral links and trailing arms. I think with -1.5, it might clear with 0 mods to the fender. We will see this weekend hopefully.

I love the helmet and the sticker. I was actually looking into a 9/11 remembrance decal for my car.

05cgm · 03-06-2008, 03:37 PM

Thanks. It is actually done with chrome and candy paint believe it or not. Chrome base and then red and blue cand make up the logo and the helmet is black candy.

Wow, I would have never guessed even though you kind of alluded to it with the earlier post about the paints.

05cgm · 03-10-2008, 09:52 PM

Got quite a few things done this weekend (nothing on the car really). Finished up the base boards in the house, painted the hallway, etc. Did manage to snap some new shots of the car and the helmet. Here are the pics of the helmet that turned out a little better then the previous ones (shows the painted logos better):

Here a few of the engine bay and finished car minus the front bumper

Very nice pics - car's looking great. Have you set up a tuning date yet?

05cgm · 03-10-2008, 10:00 PM

March 23rd should be it. It will be up to Tim Bailey whether he wants to do it on the 22nd or 23rd.
