View Full Version : Well DAM! Got the new "shhhh" done and the wheels put on...

As a reminder, they are Carroll Shelby 13x5.5 with 175/50-13 Sumitomos.

The "shhh" that is on there is the literal one-of-a-kind air dam that was fabricated by my CVCC's mechanic. I'm trying to decide if I want to leave it black (with the fender mirrors and CIVIC stripe) when I get the car painted or if I want to paint it blue with the rest of the car.

Hope you folks enjoy. It's still a work in progress. Later, QD.

The new wheels look great. The car will be perfect once it's painted.

For some reason the drivers front bumper piece sticks out like a sore thumb to me, it jumps off the picture and slaps me in the face. Other than that, pretty cool car. Air dam looks good.

Thank you, everyone, for your comments. I really appreciate them.

The bumper isn't broke unless you're talking about the piece on the driver's side that is downward angled. Thank you, too, for the compliment. Later, QD.

My steel ones? Lolol. Thanks, man. I'm keeping them for sure.

The same guy that built this air dam has the equipment to polish the wheels back up so that is coming.

Eyelids? Not sure if I want to say no or FUCK NO! Lolol. But either way, it won't happen, lolol. I'll be there.

The color, Suby, that you painted is supposed to be the primer or the final paint? I'm starting to lean more towards leaving it black. It's a huge toss up.

To everyone, I still really appreciate all the kind words. Thank you.

I was matching the primmer, just to give an idea of what the lip would look like the same color as the car...

I gotcha! I'm not going to primer match it. My decision is for the final blue paint. Just real torn, but I think I may leave it black.

Lose the redundant mirrors? I'm sorry, but I don't follow you.

K swap? No. But thanks for liking it, lolol.

Lolol, Cactus. And yes, I do like the trim ring 12" steelies, too. That's why I'm holding on to them. Later, QD.
