The color on the fender is supposed to be Zambezi green, maybe it is and the rest of the paint has just lived a hard life (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
The Getty Design front carbonfiber lid mounts perfect, now to let the car sit in sun for a day and then spray the lid with a clear coat to help protect it from the UV rays... Don't those Revolution rims look pretty?? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif) Attached image(s) |

yea, the Revolutions are sorta heavy, but for a street driven car with all the darn potholes and crappy roads we have, I don't mind the extra strength these wheels have...

I weighed the stock lids yesterday...
front stock: 31 lbs rear stock: 30 lbs CF front: 16 lbs CF rear: 15 lbs bolted on with no problems, with it being as light as it is, one person install was a breeze....I removed the stock springs and will use a thin walled aluminum tube to hold the lids up (very light weight and only cost $9 for both tubes) Attached image(s) |

Mike,
The car looks great! The green color and the black CF hood is really set off with new wheels. |

long story (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) short version: wife "insisted" I just paint the car without doing the bodywork (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) I might attempt to take a day off in the next few weeks and repaint (with bodywork) the entire car so that at least it's one color green even if it's not a perfect match for the original color... Hey Mark, I have an appointment with the DMV this week to finally register the car so that I can legally drive it more than just up and down my street (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) |
