Default Phase 3..

Just talked to Drew as Dorbritz Designs.. Air is in and we are now headed to the body shop for some slight modifications . I will post updates in this thread as the changes are made.

Going to start with this..
I wanted to keep what little room I have in the trunk so we went with a stealthy look. (Pardon filthy trunk.. I have to get it detailed)


Custom made floating controller..


Where we are today..

Great job on the floating controller. Nice and clean install. I like the location so its always within reach to raise or lower the SC without having to reach over anything. Great stance for sure. Car is sick!!!

That air setup in the trunk looks perfect! Minimalistic and sleek! Can't wait to see more of this beautiful SC, it can only get better from here!

Thanks

As far as the bracket is concerned, I give complete credit to Drew @ http://www.dorbritzdesigns.com/ for the fabrication.

Thanks Will. Yeah we'll see where it goes. Just bringing out the front a little. You and Gio inspired me to go LED's. Both of your builds are serious. I salute..

Not sure people will ever say this about my SC..

Much appreciated.. I'm a fan of the brand. I'm sure your familiar with a buddy and former teammate of mine, Brendan.. His car went viral over the net last year with a number of your wheels.

Hi gottagitmines

Fantastic job on the air install, looks amazing. Makes mine look just 'ordinary'.
I think I will have to look at changing my trunk now, yours is so inspirational!!!!!!!!!!

Similar controller position as mine, I used a Brodit mobile phone bracket and some Velcro.
I will have to drill the bracket and connect the cable from the bottom, more inspiration from you, thanks.

Cheers
Steve
