Sheeeez!!!

Had to read through all the bickering just to find out if the rims are mentioned!
E Hoba - Your car is Ayoba! (Google that shit!)
I would love to know the size and make of the rims if you don't mind.
That drop is outragious! Would dare to try it on our roads though.

Well done!:cool:
 
I am so very glad E Hoba directed me to this thread. It is quite the car to see in person and looks even better rolling down the highway.

Please do not message me asking for information on his car.

@Anthony I think loustylez response pretty much sums up your assumption.

do you have any photos of your car? Your Koup looks great as well!!

Nobody told me how to size my wheels, how wide I could go, or what offset to use. I had to do the math myself, hope for the best, and dial in my camber to where I could fit things with just the right roll/pull to the fenders. Nobody told me if the lip and spoiler I chose would fit. Nobody told me how to get these coilovers to the ride height I wanted, but I digress.

I doubt hot rodders had a forum back in the day to get all the answers. In fact back then nobody would say a word about how they built their cars or what they had in them. That's what being truly unique is all about.

My wheels are Varrstoens in 17 x 9 + 22 size, Hyperblack finish. In the future I believe I'll be trying to go much wider in the rear, there's plenty of room.

I'm glad you asked. I had the Korean plate made for me. I thought it was fitting because it is a Korean war plate made for US forces vehicles that were occupying Korea at the time of the war. I thought it was kind of fitting since the rolls are reversed now (korean cars occupying the US, get it?) It's kind of a joke.
 
and the euro plates on the bmw im guessing was germany?
 
The rear window spoiler is really different, never would have thought of it, i like it!

I really like that rear window spoiler. I wish I could find one that would fit my hatch.
Thanks. Maybe take a look at WRX wagon spoilers or even the older GC impreza wagons? You never know, they might just fit with a bit of work.

Thanks, just wanted to be different.
 
Holy shit, this thread is lols. OP, your stance is on point.

You know what everyone needs? A fucking aggressive drop, good offsets, and a little stretch. Otherwise a god damn spoiler will NOT help your lame econobox look like a "tuner" car. I hate that everyone calls each other tuners here when most of the mods are stupid light bulb swaps, tints, or different colored trim pieces. Or springs.

Wow!!! more pics please!

Thanks for the positive comments everyone.

I just moved into a new place and hopefully I'll have the new garage squared away enough to share some snaps of the car in it's new home this weekend. I keep my camera & tripod in the car too since you never know when a photo op will present itself.
