Great ride bro,

Thee exact one I spotted lol

[gambit_13]

looking good man

[GHOSTIVO]

thanks guys.

a little update,i've brought a rear lip about 2 weeks ago from a member on the forum and fitted it on. last weekend i re-fitted it cause there was a gap between the lip & bar,so thanks to Sonny (ERC 10N) for the rubber seals and kenshin for the advice.

it was red so i sanded it down and primer it at work.left it to dry in the oven overnight.

rub it all down and sprayed it.

final result with re-fitting and seals

These are the recaros that are in at the moment.

also some old photo

There's a few of them lol.cause I got a Mohawk with a long tail, that looks like a mullet if I don't tie it lol

Brought them off amate that had a sporting.he didn't want them anymore, the rails are custom welded on to fit straight into the sportivo

Still need to go abit lower,I'll adjust it when I get new tyres on Thursday :)

[GHOSTIVO]

it's been way to long since i've posted here. Thought i'll update my ride since i've got a new computer LOL. Since now i've added eyelids, black housing, trd front strut brace, DBA front rotors, bronze stockies and power fc.

1. eyelids, once i brought them off Demonrolla and tested them on, the shape of the eyelids were out of line,so i sanded the edges to line them up and also got them primered at work. I then decided to paint them two tone so it can match with my bonnet and guard. the first layer of paint i put down was the black then masked up half way the black and sprayed the blue.

2.black housing. This was one of the hardest mods i did and im never doing it again. It took me 6 hours to do both headlight (note: get someone to help you it will be much quicker). Use a heat gun at the bottom part of the headlight, slowly heated it up and use a flat head screw driver to start plying it. After i got the lens off, i mask up the chrome part where the indicator was and sprayed the rest black using a spray can. After a few mintue of drying putted everything back together.also added extra silicone around the edges incase of leak.

FINAL RESULT

another UPDATE : TRD front strut brace,To me it doesn't really do much and can't feel any difference. Only left it on cause it says TRD hehehe.

Also ordered BC BR coilovers and got them installed. Didn't like the height as it was still to high so went a tad bit lower.

I've been seeing so many sportivo with matt/gloss black stock wheels,so i thought why not do something that people don't really have and i came up with this bronze. The colour came from a BMW paint code which was the closest i can get to the jap rims (eg rays,te37 ). I also added more brown to the paint to make it a darker brown. DIY it myself with a mate helping me sand them down 600 wet and use red scotch bright with paste. Sprayed 2 coats of color and 1 coat of clear.

(note:these were all done a while ago,thought i share it :D )
