  • some of my winter projects

    I need to stop biting off more than i can chew, too much stuff going

    anyway here are some pics from today:

    the new smoked corners i bought from SKIPPYF7:

    I acquired a spare 10 bolt, since im going to be running DRs for a couple passes. freshly painted, stock 3.42:

    IMG_6824.JPG

    TA cover for whichever axle i put back in:
    IMG_6825.JPG

    Um, yep
    IMG_6802.JPG

    Undercarriage fun, being my typical perfectionist self, ive chosen to handpaint the entire thing

    after one coat:

    IMG_6809.JPG

    after two coats, I <3 rustoleum:

    IMG_6823.JPG

    Suggestions and comments welcome... as long as theyre negative jk I'd like to know what the audience thinks the SFCs look better in... black or red. Right now im painting the entire thing black, but i can put red back over it pretty easily. Im also going to touch up the spots a brush cant reach with a rattle-can.

    Looks great Joel! I really like the smoked corners and rear end cover. That going on your stocker or your spare 10 bolt?

        I think SFCs in red would be a nice combo to go with the top of your car.

            depends where im at this spring. Im looking for a cheap used 3.73/4.11 gearset. If i find one im going to attempt a swap on my spare axle and run that one. Otherwise the stock axle is going back in... the cover will be on whichever axle gets bolted back up.

                I'll buck the trend and say go black.

                Why advertize any more than you have to?

                          x2. Black FTW! I like keeping suspension stuff either black of body colored. If you had a red car I'd paint them red but I tend to keep my stuff on the DL as much as possible.
