Two weeks ago I went to Cincinnati and made a little progress... I had my custom catback w/ Magnaflow parts installed. It's 2 1/4" mandrel bent with a 3" tip...obviously not polished. I still have to get some high-temp gray paint, so I haven't taken any good pics of it yet. A friend of mine did some nice work on it though! Before you ask...I didn't buy the Magnaflow catback system because of the *bling* factor. Nothin' shiny here.

While in Cincy, my bodyshop guy and I also brought my Enkei DM5s back from the dead...at least I think so. We sandblasted and hand-prepped them, painted them Ford Argent Gray (the color of the dark gray Mustang wheels) and added an ***-load of flattening agent to the clearcoat. I'm really happy with the way it turned out. If nothing else, I can never be accused of being too blingy! Anyway, here are some pics.....

 

I like it. clean and simple. good job

 

the flat rims are interesting . . .

 

...more pics...

 

what size are those 16 or 17 ?

 

they are 17s.

btw...sorry about the huge pics. I tried resizing them to what I thought would be a decent size in photoshop. I also thought photobucket would resize them...guess not.

 

Rims look good keep it up !

 

thanks for the comments...keep 'em coming.


btw, i don't know how i forgot...i just installed my x-drilled rotors/axxis pads and painted my drums & calipers this past weekend too.

 

what kinda rotors are those?

 

they are from r1 concepts. i've only had them and the pads on for a couple of days, but i love 'em already.

 

yo, Brian, my man, those are lookin nice dude! lets see you in some tint though :smile:

 

looks good

 

nice. i like those rims

 

Thanks man...I appreciate it. Yep, tint is definitely on the agenda. I just need to replace the front passenger side glass first. There is some minor damage from a rock or something that you probably wouldn't notice...unless it was tinted.

I have a couple of other tricks up my sleeve that you may be seeing soon. As soon as the weather gets (and stays) nice, I'll be doing a better photo shoot too...adamkean style!

 

those are sexy, i need to fix my rims due to... uhhh.... neglect.... or just get new ones... lol...
