My Space Gray to share

EV0LVE · 04-20-2011, 11:00 AM

Well, looks like I got what I ordered. I remember the box saying Bright Satin Silver, I guess they interchange those callouts. Thanks for looking it up.

ipso_facto · 04-22-2011, 07:46 AM

Jeez, those wheels are so big ... if you took them off the car, kids could go skateboarding in the full pipe !!

Great BTW !!

The Forgestar F14 is sick, Evolve. And your car is so clean.

I got the same, my friend. Forgestar F14 gunmetal and H&R. These rims are really value for money. I love them with the price.

Yeah, I agree the H&R springs are still sitting high even for me here in Hong Kong where slamming too much will scratch the front going up and down ramps. Mine are installed more than a month, sitting pretty much like yours. Probably the max drop already.

i gotta chop this springs. it needs to come down at least 1 inch. maybe 2.

You probably better of switching to coilovers, bro, if you want to slam more. Chopping the springs will screw up your suspensions.

Hoothout · 04-22-2011, 06:47 PM

those wheels look great, awesome looking car bro

EV0LVE · 04-22-2011, 11:58 PM

Thanks guys for the kind words. As much as I complain about the car being too high, I dont mind the fact that I haven't scraped the front lip, so maybe it's not too bad.

RC3, coilovers are in my wish list definitely, I love the setup of your car too, but maybe I'm biased.

20" are factory option for the F10, so it's big but still on the conservative side. The F14 just looks huge because the spokes extend to the wheel's perimeter. You gotta see 21's and 22's on F10s.

I can't PM yet...are your F14s still available?

vladberca · 11-26-2011, 06:03 PM

Great mods! Congrats!

ajherran · 11-26-2011, 09:06 PM

I like it. The wheels and lip look great. FYI, JLevisSW.com sells the painted reflectors which exactly match the body color. $80 for front and same for rear. I bought mine from them.

KB7 · 11-26-2011, 11:46 PM

Nice! Really like the finish on the wheels against the SG.

EV0LVE · 11-27-2011, 01:48 AM

Thanks guys!

Since this thread came back to life, let me add this picture of a very minor mod.

I did it myself with vinyl.

Kristoph · 02-15-2012, 01:37 PM

EVOLVE nice car! Mind telling where you got the vinyl that matches the space gray? I am interested in doing this minor mod. Thanks!

XDEEDUBBX · 02-15-2012, 01:51 PM

looks good, what lip is that and where'd you get it?

datbimmerdoe · 02-15-2012, 03:46 PM

^^^ hamann style lip, check the marketplace.

positiveions · 02-15-2012, 11:06 PM

looks good.

F10 HRE · 02-16-2012, 12:09 AM

Looks good and clean bro! Us F10 peeps in SD should meet up some time...

cav314 · 03-10-2012, 02:53 PM

How much did you pay for those wheels and tires?

positiveions · 03-10-2012, 05:14 PM

i like your approach to modifications; subtle, but not too overwhelming.
Good taste friend

Thanks for the kind word. There hasnt been much change to the car so no need to post new pictures.

I got to keep it subtle, I drive it to work everyday, about 60 miles roundtrip.

btv764 · 03-11-2012, 06:23 AM

It looks like you put black painted reflectors on the front in the earlier photos? What made you pick that over the Space Grey painted reflectors?

Radamez · 03-12-2012, 11:39 AM

Very nice
