bLinded_ Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 Wow! This car is amazing :S So much time and effort put into it, and it really shows. Can't wait to see it fully assembled and finished now that it has had it's respray. Great work :) :) :yes: Quote
Trev Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 Love the detail that has gone into this paint work, What did you do with the old guard cuts off your car? Quote
78_7kRolla Posted May 18, 2008 Report Posted May 18, 2008 Nice work dude! That looks like the colour on my car. Is it aurora gold? Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted May 18, 2008 Author Report Posted May 18, 2008 Hey man! Its actually Acid Rush (off of the BA Falcon Series 1 range), but it has been changed alot (more pearls, flakes and tinters)... Quote
reddo Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 (edited) been looking at your flaired rear guards, and i have a question How much "flair" did you gain over the std arch? I looked at doing this to my AE today, however, i don't have a rap around rear bumper to blend the rear of the flair into. Pitty, great idea, and will work really well on cars that have this sort of set up looking great champion. Edited May 19, 2008 by reddo Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted May 19, 2008 Author Report Posted May 19, 2008 I gained 25mm either side man! It is a HUGE gain, but I wasnt going for anything crazy... wanted enough room for the wheels to tuck and to have a 'near' stock look!!! And the rear bar had to be HEAVILY modded for it to fit correctly :yes: You could do this to any ae82... Trust me tho... Its a fairly big job! Quote
sappy_aardvark Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Now I know why I hadn't seen it in ages... Quote
