Talking Vincent123; just a little update

UPDATES ON PAGE 4




Wanted to have a thread so I can share whats going on with my car. Purchased the car about 2-3 months ago. Heres how it looked when I got it.




Then I ordered some PBM Coilovers





Sanded down my supra TT calipers



Ordered some Varrstoen wheels from DTM Autobody
19x9.5 +0 and 19x10.5 +0
Originally came in matte black but I decided to paint it in gloss white




Sanding down the rims, the whole inner / outer barrel was sanded down as well, didnt take any pics



Painted them gloss white

^Alex if I keep the varrstoens I will go 225 front and 235 rear. Still deciding if I should keep it or not, I like how it looks. I can always have extra rims right?

Nice mods. The Varrstoens should look great once fitted.

Picked up a PBM Fender Roller, these things are great. You dont have to lower / raise your car for the wheel to reach the fender like the eastwood. You just flip the mounting portion upside down so you gain a few inches for stock height cars or you flip it the other way for lowered cars
