hatch look grew on my fast bro, i was liek eeeeeeeeee no spoiler, now it looks so sexy
Haha, that's how I feel now. It's so clean...

leave wheels and hatch as is. both are sick and need no changing
Yeah, that's pretty much my plan. I just wanna get them repainted once everything is setup how I want because of the wear they've endured from me taking them off like 200 times and just to get a better quality paint job (there's a couple of imperfections that bother me, although no one else will ever notice). Same color and all. :)

hey where did u get your fender roller? if u can pm me. And also did u crack any paint or anything?
Dang, what was the website... I can't remember, for some reason. The company is Powered by Max, so try searching for that. I think it was like gtfactory.jp or something.
No cracked paint for me! Just keep it hot! ;)

The best way to do it is to get the wheel firm on the lip and angled to where it will push the lip up, then just go back and forth a few times over the entire area you want to do, then push the wheel out further to roll the lip a tiny bit more, go over it a few more times, and just keep doing that until it's flat. Just gradually work it flat and you'll be much less likely to crack any paint.
 
Yeah, that's the only downside to the TE37s and the plus about the Grids is the concave factor. Grids will pretty much always have more...
I guess I mainly want TE37s for the custom offset and baller factor, as you said. Haha :)
But when I really think about it, it'd be paying $2,000 for basically the same look. I think that once I get everything setup how I'd like, I'll get them re-painted and get some stupidly expensive lugs.
My goal offsets are +24 in front and +23 in back, so we'll see if I can accomplish that!

I hear that... btw this is grippymonkey from WFC/hellaflush :3_bier:

just lurkin around on here

Woah, what's going on! I didn't know you were on here! Haha
I think that once I get the adapter situation worked out, it'll be HellaFlush worthy, hopefully. I wish those stiffer springs would get here...

I guess I'm gonna grind down the factory studs a little so I can get everything to work! So stay tuned for that one, folks.

TE37's are forged btw, and a hell of a lot stronger.

This is the problem with people thinking all rims are the same. And I rarely see tack cars with rota grids instead of TE37's
Props to Jareth on this. There's always the saying "you get what you pay for." For the Volk TE37s, you're not only paying for the name brand, but the quality and craftsmanship of the wheels.

Man, I need to get something going on ol' blue and get some updates up... She's just been sitting! I'll clean the interior up today and take her out to dinner. :)
I'll probably order the control arms pretty soon, so then I should have something interesting to post up!
 
Did I miss something or have u not got ur new coilover springs yet? Btw, 3 words... Big Brake Kit. Hahaha

Oh yea, where u guna get your control arms? Lowest place i could find was ultrarev, but im sure you can find them cheaper somewhere. I got ark strut bars, sway bar, dt-p's, and kjb endlinks just sitting in my apartment awaiting a time I can get off work and not be so damn tired to install em. But I'm def wanting to pick up some ingalls before I do it, just because I kinda wuna change out everything while im under the car. Oh i can not wait till I drive it for the first time after everything is put on, just looking at the parts right next to me, makes me excited. haha

I was thinking the same thing too.

Definitely get some Wilwoods like Danny has on his. If not, I was wondering if you had that planned as well.

No, I haven't received the springs yet. They said it would be about 60 days, so I've still got a little while.
UltraRev and Import Shark are basically the same exact price, but UltraRev charges more for shipping, whereas Import Shark charges more for the product.
That'll definitely feel like a whole new car after you install all of that stuff! :)
And yeah, I'm planning on the Wilwoods, I just need to get the money set aside again. I had it a while back, but I ended up getting the Civic and having to replace a few things and such.

Nope! I got mine from M2 Tuning for pretty cheap. I've got some unnecessarily expensive ones on the list, though... :3_got-hoo
 
You should just send me your springs maybe they will lower my car lol... Just playing... but gosh Thats how I feel with mine... I have nothing going on just waiting for parts to sell to do my single Exhaust

whats wrong with your springs on your coilovers?
I just need stiffer ones so I can go lower and wider. :)
With how it rubs in back now, I can't really go lower. So stiffer springs will let me!

Hmm, I wonder what that would do! Haha
Yeah, it's just nice to enjoy it now, I guess. But I will have more stuff coming! So don't worry. ;)
