| A Euro badge
installed on an 03 convertible is not a an easy task, modification was required. |
A set of
Euro tails were installed, to set off the back end. |
A Magnaflow
catback installed to free up a few extra ponies. |
 |
 |
 |
| A gauge package
was selected from Auotmeter. The gauges are Ultra-lites, and notice the
Anwalt temp adapter is required to install a temp gauge on these cars. |
Dressed up
the interior with a bit of paint on the trim pieces and the speedo cover. |
As the car
is so low we fabricated one of our skid plates to protect the oil pan. |
 |
 |
 |
| We painted
up the calipers and installed a set of TSW Trophy's |
|
For 2006
we are set to run a set of 19" wheels and tires. The tires selected
were Hankook Ventus V4ES H105's in 225/35WR19 |
 |
 |
 |
| The wheels
selected were the Privat Farhen. The steel gray centers should look right
at home on a silver car. |
In the box
resides a Carbon fibre hood |

| We have decided
to try the D-Pic performance meter from Autometer, in our current gauge
pod. The gauge allows one to test 1/4 mile, 0-60 times, breaking distances,
lateral G's, and even horsepower. |
