Super Star UCF20 Build
Figured I would start a build thread to show you guys what we're working on for 2014. Sorry in advance for the mostly iphone/instagram pictures.
I'll start off from the beginning and bring you up to date. Started off with the suspension. BC/UAS setup and Megan arms in the rear. Cut the shock towers in the front and had it sitting pretty much where I wanted it. https://imageshack.us/a/img5/33/08rm.jpg Found a great deal on some Weds Kranze Cerberus so I refinished and relip'd them to 18x10/11. Got the front sitting flush with a spacer and tucked the rears and rocked this look last year. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5494/...56bd6f85_b.jpg https://imageshack.us/a/img690/4580/mwwr.jpg https://imageshack.us/a/img41/821/o7wl.jpg https://imageshack.us/a/img43/5634/r4fx.jpg https://imageshack.us/a/img585/5181/ske0.jpg https://imageshack.us/a/img401/3381/v33r.jpg Got pretty bored with the look and decided I wanted to go a lot further so I picked up a daily and started gathering parts for the build. New additions for next year: - Wald Sportsline kit - SSR SP3's 19x10.5/11.5 (5.5 and 6.5" lips) - LED tails - Clazzio seat covers - 326 Power Front RCA's - Full repaint with radius'd and flared fenders My seats were torn and gross so these really brought the interior back to life. And they're a darker color which is pretty cool. Still some wrinkles in the pictures but they're mostly gone now. https://imageshack.us/a/img534/8423/dp47.jpg https://imageshack.us/a/img607/3995/tsfy.jpg https://img42.imageshack.us/img42/6890/zwq9.jpg Test fitted the wheels and kit https://24.media.tumblr.com/0ce5cc01...12do1_1280.jpg Lots of cutting and hammering later we got the rear sitting where I want and stocked to mock up the fender flare. Should be about a 2.5-3" radius. https://24.media.tumblr.com/838b87b0...12do1_1280.jpg Lots more to come! :thumbup: |
OK first let me preface these questions by stating for the record that I am:
A) Older (44) B) Probably out of touch with some car trends C) Not judging at all But I have to ask: - How do you drive a car like that without bent rims, body damage and early suspension problems? - Isn't the ride much worse than stock? That said I really like your seat covers! First time I have seen seat covers that I liked. Do you mind if I ask the cost and how difficult is install? So yeah get off my lawn, stay outta my rose bushes, et al :) For the record, I do not feel that old and the Amon Amarth death metal I am listening to while typing this says hello :D |
sick!!!
sayow- everything can be sacrificed for the intended result! also i had clazzios in my scion tc and they were awsome perfect fittment and easy to install been trying to find them for 1st gens. |

Frame work for the flares coming together. This really shows how much it's radius'd.
https://imageshack.us/a/img839/7320/dw6u.jpg Got my 326 Power RCA's in. Very quality pieces, well worth the money. https://imageshack.us/a/img839/4315/0dvc.jpg Front camber :woot: https://imageshack.us/a/img819/3400/x231.jpg Girlfriend hooked it up for Christmas with a Wald hood emblem. And it's black chrome and black to match the wheels! https://imageshack.us/a/img194/2347/8b6q.jpg Front flare mocked up roughly. bottom will come in a lot more to flow into the bumper. https://img547.imageshack.us/img547/9544/lioo.jpg |

Looking very good so far. Are you planning to lay it on the body kit when aired out, because it sure looks like it! :D
