Modifications so far include:

HRE Monoblock wheels, 20x9 front, 20x11 rear
Nitto NT05 tires, 275/40/20 front, 315/35/20 rear
Blacked out side marker lights
Blackened Front Bow Tie
Front & Side Ground Effects
Mufflers painted flat black

I'm in Maryland, so I'm waiting for some CARB certified forced induction to become available, as well as headers and CAI.

The HRE offsets are perfect, so there's no rubbing at all.
Thanks to Mike at Pedders for the alignment specs - the car handles like a go kart, but doesn't ride like one.

firestone_ss · 08-06-2009, 10:43 AM

just curious if you took the time to balck out bow ties and such,lowerd and after market wheels and tires,WHY DIDNT YOU TINT THE DARN WINDOWS MAN!...anyway looks kewl hehe

Roc Spo · 08-07-2009, 04:51 PM

Thanks for all the comments, both good and bad.
I'll try to answer the questions.
The tires do have armorall on them. The Nitto NT05 is a brand new tire, made from a new tire compound, and is less black than other harder compounds.
The front bowtie was first shot with clear gloss, then sanded with 2000 grit. I masked off the chrome surround, then painted the center black. I then shot very thin gloss black on the chrome surround to tone it down a bit. A final coat of clear gloss seals it all in.
I didn't tint the windows because I do a lot of night driving, and prefer maximum visibility over any coolness factor the tint might have provided.
