SOHCKing03: Project Black Ice

Post by SOHCKing03 » Tue Aug 12, 2008 11:32 pm

Pictures of the car in its current state will be up in a few days. Here is a list of mods done so far, and the future plans for it. It is called Black Ice because that's the name of the air freshener I love and I feel it describes the style of the car well. I wanna mix it up with a little USDM, JDM, and Euro. Let me know what you guys think!

Current:
Mopar STG2 Coilovers
Black Projector Headlights
5300K HID's
eBay Strut Bar
Dual Indash DVD
SRT4 Shifter
Custom CAI
Window Tint

Future:
Exterior-
Custom Civic Lip
******** Taillights (will post pics as a suprise when they come)
Repainted (black again next spring)
AVS/PVO Spoiler
Retroed Fogs (6000K)
Bronze Painted Stockers
Fender Flares (possibly)

Interior-
Fiberglassed Door Panels
Racing Seats
Custom Dash
Painted/Custom Headliner

Suspension-
Sway Bars
Strut Bars
New Bushings

Engine/Trans-
80% Maddog STS
Booger Bushings
Powdercoated VC
CAI Intake
Bigger TB
Polished Intake Manifold
Longtube Header

That is the current plans for now. I am debating some of the specific parts like which taillights, size of swaybars, and other parts but those details will be figured out soon (polls coming too).

Shoot me some ideas or suggestions because I love hearing input.

Let Project Black Ice begin!

Yup I've always been a JDM fan. I'm probably going to go with a white body, black hood(maybe roof and trunk), and gold wheels. However, none of my paint plans are close to being final so I am doing some chops to see what I fall in love with.

Thanks for the compliment.

I like people who BUY a 10 sec car and then brag about it. Thats like hiring someone to bang your wife and then bragging about the kid

NOOOOO, stick with black and OEM wheels! It looks hot the way it is in the pics in my opinion.

Well I am gonna stick with the R/T rims for now. I am gonna put steelies on this winter with winter tires and paint my R/T's I will probably do white rims and possibly a red lip. All these color choices are running through my head lol.

Updated first post. Ordered my taillights and decided to keep the car black. I will be buying steelies within the next few weeks for winter. I need new tires anyways so I'm gonna put some winter tires on steelies while I repaint the stockers.

More updates to come and parts will be ordered soon. STS is probably next since I have a spare shifter lying around.

Lol I don't think so. But hey, everyone has their own style... including naming their car.
