Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Pics and Videos This morning... 8 pics

...before coming in to the office. Just had to! The originals are at www.fototime.com under my email address (silversvt@hotmail.com) for those who want the poster-size pictures... Hehe..

Damn in your other pics the tailight looks to have an orange (amber) lens installed in it, go check the other pics and you'll see what I mean! VERY NICE RIMS

Sweet car. Are those coilovers? Props on the rims.

VERY NICE WHEELS!!! Those or the SSR wheels were my first choice. But I didn't get them. I think they look sweet on the tour. Makes me wish I would have bought them.


Same question though Are they 17"s and do you have GC's or what?

Nice Sidemarkers, where did you get them from?

Any Rub?

Later

Thanks for the good comments!

The wheels are 18's & I run 225 rubber. No rub courtesy of the 43mm offset. And you're right on the Ground Control coilovers. They are 1" away from the lowest setting at the moment.

I bought the sidemarkers at my local ricer shop, no idea what brand. I got them simply because nobody else has them on a 'tour Hehe... They are clear and look absolutely great at night.

very nice!

props on the picture taking skillz too.

Silversvt--nice photos of a beautiful car, but one piece of advice (and I do this respectfully, as an avid photographer), watch your backgrounds--pictures 1,3,4,6, and 8 show your car to appear to have rather interesting antennae (the light posts). Usually the problem shows itself with a light post growing out of Granny's head, so it's not so bad in your case. Keep shooting (no, not me, please) and have a nice day.

How much and where did you get your GC's. Does it handle better or are the GC's more for show. Also how much do they lower your car on the highest setting? How much and where did you buy them from?

Do GC's use H&R springs? And one more question, did you install them yourself, if not how much was that?

Thanks,
Justin

How did you take the orange reflectors out of the headlights? I have put clear bulbs in but still have the reflector in it.

Car looks nice and smooth!

thepakrat: I believe there is a very good how-to on removing the orange reflectors on the CEG page. Takes 20 minutes per headlight, very easy mod.

gwellington: Hehe, thanks for the tips You see I'm also an amateur photographer (Canon EOS Elan 2, Canon Rebel G) and I just bought this digital cam (Nikon Coolpix 950) ... I'm simply not used to composing a nice picture looking at the LCD screen instead of the viewfinder. I even got my own shadow in one of the pics!! That parking lot was strewn with all kinds of lamp posts, hard to avoid them without constantly moving the car which I didn't have time to do on my daily drive in to work Gimme a couple weeks and I should manage to impress you

jcboeckl: I bought the CG's in the NECO group purchase a couple months ago, we got 20% off retail. At full drop the 18's almost tuck rim in the back... not quite but almost You'll see in my upcoming pictures, I'll drop it for a few days soon. The kit uses an Eibach ERS series spring and handling is superb. I installed them myself (with immense help from Jeff Labelle). Fairly easy but we had a lift and air tools. I cannot imagine doing that on jack stands with a wrench and socket set.... Maybe I'm lazier than most but it would just be too painful.
