one hot coupe

any spec for those wheels? as i'm still waiting anxiously/nervously for my new hatch wheels


hey stingray, the wheels are wedsport ma86 in 15x8.5 -10. you must modify fenders in order to fit. not flares, just rolling them and then in the front fender well you'll need to bash in a seam there. you'll know which one cuz you'll rub lock to lock ;) post pics up of your car too! :tu:


I like em too!

my buddy has one of these too. I absolutely think they are great looking little cars with TONS of potential. His is more of a boomer than a goer though!

Nice cars, like the rims to the AE on the first page. What are you planning to do with your AE?

I wish I could be in the pic with you guys but you all got nice cars. Hopefully I can join the club of nice rides one of these days.

Big ups on your car. It's looking great! Can't wait to see it and go cruising or just waking up at 4am to eat all day.

yeah, the hood is just a cf VIS hood. my buddy (the genius) decided to take a corner wayyy too fast and clipped a guard rail one night and damaged his fender, rim, and hood in the process. we didn't want to replace the hood as only the clear coat was cracked (lucky SOB if you ask me). we found a solution for his hood - vinyl covering. our homies at intec racing just south of seattle just started offering these. they can do just about any custom artwork as long as the image you provide them is high res. it turned out amazing in person. here's his worklog if you're curious or want more details on his car. :tu:

Hey, I was upset, buzzed and should have NOT been driving.
I guess it worked out for the better. Got the hood done, body work done and nobody got hurt or killed. Never going to do that again... Damn bitches... :)
