Things I did recently
-painted my headlights to look stock again
-relocated that tach so it's not visible from the outside
-removed the stickers

I'm gonna put my interior back in later
Paint my hub caps grey to look stock
Put the hood bra back on
I think I'll keep the amber corners on because they don't stand out that much.

Things that are getting done in the future
-pick up another z6 block for a low comp build
-Full tuck,harness,brake lines etc..
-Tune
-Paint & body work(fix rust and dents)
-Suspension

Hopefully its super quite to totally throw people off. :lol:

I love the look of slammed cars, however I love how this is total sleeper status.

Are your tires good enough to keep power to the ground?

You should use radiator paint to paint them. When you do that it shouldn't effect the temp.

And yeah I plan on lowering it again sometime but until I get better suspension its gonna stay at stock height.So suspension is probably going to be done over winter with paint etc,what do you guys think about the blox full coilovers,I couldn't find any reviews on them.Are they any good?I was gonna get blox lcas aswell but from what I've read on H-T the bushing that come with them are shit.

- Mon Oct 26, 2009 3:31 am #152763 i've heard they are shitty as well, but i think its because people tighten the bolts before the car is on the ground . When this happens (tightening before on the ground) the bushings twist which KILLS the life of them. if i heard that someone installed them propery, and they wore out quick, i'd believe them. But i am really thinking that its the person who installed them who is at fault. just my .02 cents. :D
