Back from the dead: My WS.6 returns... rims, paint, slammed...

Irate · 06-10-2005, 08:59 PM

Here's some quick non-artistic pictures I took this afternoon after finally getting the rims on. The car is a little dirty and I havn't gotten around to putting some tire shine on yet, but I couldn't resist taking out the camera...

The hood fitment was amazing (as attested by the body shop manager) and everything else fell into place. The drop was a pain in the ass - had to weld on drop-brackets for the LCA's and put in an adjustable panhard rod (heh) and I ended with about 1.8-2.0" off the top

The paint on the rear bumper is actually granite metallic from a G6

Good stuff

UNCTYPE-S · 06-11-2005, 09:08 AM

congrats on getting her back on the street. For some reason I dont like the look of camaros and t/a's dropped. i dont know, im just weird like that, but the rest of the car looks good.

KeyserSosa2000 · 06-11-2005, 09:36 AM

Great colour man. I love the rims with the polished lip. The more I see them the more I want to get some for my silver SE...I just have no idea what black/silver rims would make my car look good. If it looked even half as good as that I'd be happy.

GTPguy99 · 06-11-2005, 09:39 AM

hey Rob the car is looking badass

Ant · 06-11-2005, 10:13 AM
