Only that one side shot i have .. In about 2 weeks more pics will be up...i will take pics of just the rims tomorrow

And yo the 4 faces are for sale you can get new barrels cut to fit them or you can get the entire rim 19×10.5 with -0 offset and 19×11.5 with - 15 offset if you want to build something wide...let your ppl know

Never realized you did a build thread on your ride. I remember when you first got it when you finished school. Nice work and it looks nice. You wouldn't even know it was the same car. Have to see it in person one of these days when I head out to bk.

Default Brake booster problem

Trouble shoot all the cheap possible reasons why we had no brake....end up finding the problem was the most expensive

Now that's the proper way to get wide fenders on a 2GS! Usually people just flare out the edge of their fenders, and totally ignore the natural fender line in the rear wheels and end up looking like they have a fender over a fender! Great job marmar!
