Filler added
Gap that was present yesterday is gone in these newer fotos.

And pickup week planned but the exact date hasn't been finalized. Some time after the 25th I'll be picking up my project Venom for a photoshoot and new shoes. I still need a line on tires though that's the last piece of this puzzle. Otherwise, there will be 235/255 on a set of 9.5s ... which will probably be too much stretch to look right so please help me out!!!

Despite that I am 2k over the initial estimated budget. Bank account = sad and empty

Enjoy





Any suggestions on upgrades to make this 1 stand out a bit more?
Danke from your fellow 1addict,
Venom

Looks awesome man. I wouldn't sweat the tires too much, I currently have 255s on my rear 9.5s and its not so bad. When it comes time for new tires, I'll get 265s on the rear, but the current (minor) stretch isn't worth throwing away good rubber for.


Kudos on a super sexy project!

Thanks man! It's been a fun crazy project! Cant wait to show off the final pictures!

You think 235 on a 9.5 wheel wont look weird? (It's gunna be a square setup)

Well I was debating selling the front pair of tires and getting 275s for the rear which are apparently cheaper than 255s.

9.5 on 255 should be fine man...Not sure about 235 though. With your new fenders you can fit BIG rubber, 1M guys are getting 285s in the rear.

yeah, tires are the last piece of this puzzle. I'm just trying to get that dialed in before the car is ready. I wanted to get some body kit stuff but dont have the funds for their offers.

Super excited for this to be done and my car to be in my hands. It's been in project mode since November.

Interesting but bad ass! Can't wait to see this complete. The way they're doing your car looks a lot easier than mine which had full quarter panel replacements lol. Maybe I should have just done that. Oops.

Definitely down. You're up in the Bay area right? I plan on heading there for a photoshoot with one of my favorite photographers we have at ADV.1. We could definitely all get together!
