  1. more of a multi-spoke man myself, but they may look pretty sick on your car man. fit well with the colour scheme :)

    Yes all my past sets have been multi-spoke but after seeing these i think its time to venture across :unsure:

    ahhh !! i wanttt !!

    :whistling: ohh where did you find this

    Tyre rack USA havnt been able to find them on a AUS site yet.

  2. Big update today :D

    Managed to get my eyelids sanded and ready for some prep work ready for painting. I'm not sure if I like them or not yet or they need to be shaped or chopped but here's some pics you guys can judge for yourselves.

    I also decided it was time to get stuck into the sub grille and 20mm persex was used and 45 degree slopes were routed to give it a sharp edge bit hard to see from the iphone photos. Really need a good camera to pickup the detail of cuts in perspex and also the lighting. With the leds it just lights up that perspex ring and it just glows.

  3. Jumped on the PlastiDip bandwagon today did the rear badge and that chrome strip pics below. Also re-did the front badge and grille in PlastiDip to keep the theme going around the car grille looks really good factory finish.

    Just ignore the dirt finger marks will get some proper pics up tomorrow aswell as the front :D

  4. Nice work Corey, are you clear coating these badges. Also did you just buy new double sided tape and stick to badge and finally where do you buy this Plastidip from?

    Not going to clear coat, if it starts to peel or chip I can just peel it off and do another spray (although from research its pretty durable stuff!) Don't have to take the badge off at all. Just mask and spray, then peel the unwanted plastidip off the car's paintwork (sounds scary but trust me its 100% safe). Got it from a place in Bowen Hills called Prime Electronics. Plastidip Distributors - QLD

    So did you sand the badge or anything might have to go get some of this tomorrow. Also when you peeled off the unwanted inside the badge did it lift off the badge when removing it from paint work? sorry for all questions as you said "sounds scary" might take me few more times to read and process :lol:

  5. Nice car Arc! New tyres? You dont like the Kappa? I was going to say i like the kappa's haha was thinking of getting some myself so was good to see a pic of them on a ZRE

    Hey Lachlan, thanks for the comment. I'm a big fan of the kappas have the 18" version on my aurion just up for a change or my new idea I've had is get coilovers instead and leave the kappas.

    Anyways not sure if you've seen this but might help you out as few more angles never hurt.
