slapped on the scaras on the blk cherry*

[gato]

Suspension is on and so are the wheels!

you'll notice the rear needs to come down some.

that will take place later this week when my 15mm spacers arive.

the front will be lowered a tad more when I roll the fenders completely
( for now, I just rolled the fronts with a metal bat.)

specs are 19x9+18 front on a 225/35/19 fk452

and the rear sits on a 19x10+30 on a 235/35/19 fk452

once the spacers are on and the car is adjusted lower, I think it will be a sick looking little beast.

other small mods done are , window visors,dyi grille, exhaust tips and the suspension is Tein HA coilovers.


here is a pic of the front wheel

[antbo]

looks nice!!! it looks like you messed up on the fenders though. am i right???

[aristo93]

WOW nice clean set up!!!

[gato]

looks nice!!! it looks like you messed up on the fenders though. am i right???

yeah, you caught me...


the fronts were not rolled prior to install. so I took a metal bat and rolled them myself. only problem is that the paint started chippin on the front fenders.

its all good though, looking at how good the front looks, I'll take it to a body shop and have the fenders rolled tight or cut and drop it another 1/2 inch.

rears are rolled, but due to weak fitment the rear is not been lowered to tuck yet. after 15mm spacers are added I will drop accordingly.

man that sucks. i would just have the shop roll the fenders due to how weak the fenders are already. so you rolled the rear??? i highly recomend cutting. believe me. PLEASE!!

[gato]

. so you rolled the rear??? i highly recomend cutting. believe me. PLEASE!!


Rear is rolled.

you are right. I will cut. Im gonna go friday and have a bodyshop cut all 4 fenders. that will be so tight, rolling that flush without rubbing.

so did the rear fenders crease where the holes are??

[jbo]

Im late as usual but your car looks great cant wait to see it exactly how you want it though I know it will be insane...

[i20solara02i]

ur car gonna look sick after the spacers

[BrianStyles]

gato, you still in Dallas?

This is Brian from Houston. We spoke a long time ago back when you had your sick ES. Never knew you were gonna get a GS.

[jqnguyen8]

scaras are awesome!

[SoCalSC4]

You've come a long way with your ride(s)! Nice going!

If you cut the rear fenders, you won't have any issues with the quarter
panels warping (someone above asked). Air saws are your friend...

Can't wait to see the rig with a kit!

[juan01]

Dang gato, youve been moving on up huh! LOL :)

[Gao Jian]

Looks very nice man, can't wait to see the rear dropped a bit more. Keep us posted!!!

Oh, I'm really really liking the black cherry look of the car. Hottness

Bob, thanks alot. I like your post on wheels and such, very knowledgable.

you wanna know something, the kit is next. like real soon.
and yeah, I think it will look really clean.
I cant seem to find a pic to show you how clean this blackcherry looks on the scaras.

[SKperformance]

I never liked scara's much but on your car for some reason they look like they really belong with it. I just am not feeling the pics with tehm on an LS for some reason. Looks very nice though.

[allstar]
