Default Just A Simple 350 From The "305"

I never really got a "build thread" started for it, so might as well do so now, my name is Ray, I live in Miami, have posted here before but I had been MIA for a bit, so here's a couple of pics of the car from Day 1 Stock till Today....

Stock as it can be, purchased Dec 18th, 2015

Couldn't stand the 4x4 look, went with RSR SuperDown Springs+25mm(front) 20mm(rear) Spacers.

And finally, here's how she sits today, went with Avant Garde M590 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear 225 tires up front with 265 rear....

Mod List:

Ebay Trunk Spoiler+Rear Window Spoiler
Avant Garde M590 Liquid Polish Bronze(Bespoke Level 3 Option) 19x8.5/19x9.5
Axle Back Titanium Tipped 3" Exhaust
Car was also fully detailed including a Ceramic Coating done on the entire paint.

Future plans will hopefully be Air Ride Suspension and maybe blacking out the Chrome Trim and then that'll be it for me, hope you guys enjoy, tell me what you think, Pros & Cons, I'm up for feedback.

If you guys would like to follow my progress, you can do so on my Instagram account its Rays_350.

Ray.

That's a sweet ride with the perfect stance! I think it'd look even better with blacked out chrome. Do you plan on painting your calipers?

Yea, I'm thinking about blacking out the chrome, trying to get some quotes around town, and calipers i'm not sure at this time.

Wasn't planning on doing this until next year, but here's the new finish. Custom color, Illusion Purple+gold flakes. Will get some full res HD pics when I get a chance to shoot it with my Fuji.
