[PICS] Pics of My New Carbon Straight 5 360's [PICS]

[FLATOUT]

Well it's been a while since I posted any pictures or updates on any of my new mods so I thought I would wait and throw them all in one post. I was able to locate a coupe fuel door for a reasonable price here on the VCA and sent it to Forged Distributing to have Alain wrap it in carbon fiber to match the new wheels being made for the car. Definitely turned out unique and I am beyond happy with the finished product on the car. The install was a breeze using the VCA install document and it was worth the time.

Next I powder coated the calipers red to update the 03 to the later gen 3-4 look, and powder coated the ebrake calipers gloss black.

Finally got the new wheels done. We were originally building a set of monoblocks for the car but after waiting on the monoblock material supplier for 8 weeks we decided to discontinue offering any monoblocks until we could find a more suitable supplier. We decided to make a 3 piece set to put on the car until we could work out the issue with the monoblock supplier, but these will be staying on the car. Extremely happy with the set, well worth the wait!

360 Forged CF Straight 5's
20/20 set with carbon faces, carbon lips, chrome hardware, and gloss black barrels. Also have a set of gloss black center caps on the way to see if they look better than these brushed centers.

Here are a few pic's I took behind the house on Friday.

OMG those wheels are sick! Gorgeous car man.

 

[FLATOUT]

Thanks, I didn't think I would like them as much as I do, but the HSF (Holy $HIT Factor) is through the roof when you walk up on the car.

 

[dvhavoc]

Sick! Great looking car man.

 

[Supratt6s]

Seeing it again still hasn't worn off the WOW! factor, still gorgeous! Always with the great taste.

I HATE YOU!!

 

[AbsolutHank]

Looks great Andy...very nice ride you've built. The carbon lips really do make such a huge difference in completely the "look" of your car...congrats!

 

[bmw2nv2000]

And those HID fogs are def a nice clean upgrade too

 

[FLATOUT]

Thanks very much guys. I have known several of you for a long time and through multiple builds. I appreciate your remarks

 

[F8L SNK]

Awesome Andy, the wheels (and car) look great!!

 

[FLATOUT]

It's gotta look good if I'm going to park next to yours at C&C each month.

 

[tucker]

Looks good Andy. I like the carbon barrels too.

 

[AZMotorgod]

Wow is right, very nicely done.

Your mods have made the car very contemporary yet classic at the same time. I don't think that look will ever go out of style.

The wheels fit in perfect.

One of the best looking verts out there IMO

Thanks for sharing

Very nice. Now it may be time to make a mod or two on the "dull" rear of the car especially since the rest of the car looks so awesome. I have always thought that the Gen 3 & 4 rears were very ordinary. Maybe a carbon fiber spoiler and blacked out (or carbon fiber) rear fascia??? Anyways, looks great.

 

[jerseydave]

WOW! Looks amazing!

Waiting on Steve to send his new coupe rear to finish it off. I do have plans for something back there.

Im not usually into lots of carbon, but those actually look pretty good. I think the carbon wrapped fuel door came out nicely as well.

 

[TexasTorred]

Very nice...I'm jealous!

 

[Ghoust]

Wow! Best wheels I have seen for the red black color combo! I want!!

 

[DRBSRT]

Love the new look Andy!! Can't wait for the next C&C to see them up close and personal. Congrats!!!

[F8L SNK]

Yeah right, one thing mine is not is photogenic

It's gotta look good if I'm going to park next to yours at C&C each month.

 

[345s-bspinnin]

Wow Andy, very sick looking. I completely agree on the HSF. I will see them in person in upcoming C&C events.

 

[HyperViper]
