keep the stocker wheels and get a BIG ASS TURBO. Rock some 225 tires w/ hubcaps

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 12:45 am

hubcaps are gay. at least get some stock 7 spokers or snowflakes, and not the gay new style snowflakes, the original style flakes....

1st gen ACR spring on the way (thanks dangerdave), and stock 15" seven spokes sprayed bronze and wrapped in 205/50's are coming soon.

Alot of body mods will come.... with more paychecks!lol

exhaust is a 20-something-inch flowtech glasspack, and a bent pipe out the rear, with the 5" black chrome tip... tip looks more like black brushed aluminum. I'll post pics of the under side tomorrow after i get her on the lift.

thanks for the comments guys

gawd i want side exit... but side exit in front of the tire.......

CA180 · Post by **CA180** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 1:10 am

i thought of that, but i didnt like the clearance issues that i would have after a drop... and here in oklyhomo, the roads suck! i'd have one f-ed up tip after another.

On with the mods! Nice tint, though.

AHHH!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

NOT STOCK WHEELS!!!!!!

That would have been the first thing I did to my car if I had hubcaps. Since I had the new style snowflakes however... I did an underbody kit instead.

Nice mods so far, very clean looking car. The mesh is a good subtle idea.

Best color ever!!!

03sxt · Post by **03sxt** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 11:08 am

I just noticed the mesh grille material over the OEM slots... Cut those slots out and put that mesh back in and that'd look like someones shop idea I've seen around here. That'd look tits...

meh,,,, not real interested in choppin up the bumper. gotta remember, this things only got 6000 miles on her. To new to cut up a bumper for me.

I'm goin with the seven spoke 15" cause i like to autoX. I like how light they are, and how cheap... free

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 5:07 pm

I really like that color alot. and the exhaust...have any pics of it from under the car?

CA180 · Post by **CA180** » Sat Aug 26, 2006 5:51 pm

here's some from under the rear bumper...i didnt have time to get her on a lift today and take full under body shots, but i will next week.

And before anybody asks... no the tip isnt welded on, just on of the clamp on. Crappy, i know... but i've been so freaking busy, i haven had time to get it over to the exhaust shop.

1- Take the hubcaps off and sport the clean steelie look until you get some wheels...
2 - Nice twist on the exhaust setup, that just dropped your weight 20-30lbs easily.
Are you running that to the stock mid pipe and no resonators?
Any sound clips?

CA180 · Post by **CA180** » Mon Aug 28, 2006 9:23 pm

no, there's a 20 sumthin inch flowtech glasspack on the midpipe... i tried wide open, and it drove me nuts... i'll get some sound clips tomorrow fer you guys...

joelrgr · Post by **joelrgr** » Tue Aug 29, 2006 12:13 am

Best color imo as well!!!

CA180 · Post by **CA180** » Tue Aug 29, 2006 12:33 am

thanks, my 05 ram was this color and i loved it! I had to get rid of that one cause of gas mileage, monthly paayment, and insurance,,, but it was sweet! It was an 05 1500 2 door, 4.7, 4x4, 6 speed, off road tire, flowmaster muffler, CAI, 12"sub behind the seat, and.... Sorry, i miss her... She was a beast.... anyhow, i love the color..

Neonix · Post by **Neonix** » Tue Aug 29, 2006 9:28 am

Nice color! That's probably one of my favorite colors, next to CG of course.

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Tue Aug 29, 2006 12:41 pm

the reason your exhaust drove you nuts without a muffler was because of the huge tip you have. ive run my neon muffler less, and its nice, hardly loud at all. but when i had the SRT rear on it, it almost DOUBLES the sound output thanks to the bigger pipe... you may have already known this, but i thought id bring it up
