Winter Mode...

Post by 03_SXT » Tue Nov 18, 2008 6:51 pm

The car is finally back on the road! Here it is in winter mode, with freshly powder coated SRT rims, and some new Dunlop winter rubber!

Got into an accident back in July, radiator took a crap in August, and then the transmission failed in September! Its been a very "eventfull" year for me...

Anyways, on to the pictures...

This is where the car lives all year long. I bought some light bulbs that give a nice 'parking lot' orange glow...

The headlights and tailights will be taken apart and color matched one day. I'm trying to get rid of as much chrome/silver on the car. I thought about tint, but I like having a clear lens, but still everything black underneath...

Look at the pictures again :D

I already do! I'm doing color matched because the black from the plastic is textured and it doesn't 'flow' with anything on the car...

Blah, I so need to get winter tires. The setup looks pretty good. The only thing I don't like is how much the red drums stand out.

We got about ten inches through monday morning already...it has begun.

The drums will be gone soon! I have all the parts for the drums to disc conversion, its in the depo box under the white bucket in the garage...

As for the windows, I probably wont go darker. Depending on the angle that you view the car, it can look really light or really dark...

You going to paint the rear calipers? Tint looks like 35% or so. I've always thought your car was wicked clean and sexy. Nice that its finally behaving though :)

So I have been thinking about taking my stock R/T exhaust and painting it in high temp flat black, including the exhaust tips...

I'm really digging the all black theme, the car gets more attention now, I've already had a couple compliment me already...
