time for major change, going under construction
Monday, January 16, 2006 6:17 AM
Well after much thought my car is once again going under construction. First off id like to say thank you to my wonderful girlfriend Melissa for being supportive of my hobby/addiction. Some of you have seen these pictures, some havent, so i figured id post for those who havent seen it since my car isnt what id call highly reconized. The new plan includes a full wings west advenger body kit with voltex rear, fiberglass X1 fenders, fiberglass ram air hood, rk sport pro stock wing, shaved inner taillights and trunk lock,00/02 headlight conversion with black corners and headlights and probably 18 inch racing hart C5s. Im keeping the car the same color, but i may just have the whole thing repainted again. The interior is getting redone in grey and black with corbeau legacy seats and my fiberglass door panels will be finished. On to the pictures, as i said some of these have been posted before, they are in memory pics because it will not look like this again. C&C welcome and enjoy.

Why not just keep the headlights? Why not be different. Headlight swaps on a j body are over rated, and get overlooked at a show. Im getting tired of seeing so many 00-02 headlights around here, same as the ram air hoods. Do something different.

Thanks Bummrz and I satchmoe you, thanks

Dan: The headlight swap isnt for show purposes, i like the 00-02 style a lot better, and its also in memory of my 2000 z24 which was totalled (i got rear ended) the day before its first show. The hood, im not 100% sure on but i dont want carbon fiber doesnt look show worthy for very long,mine isnt after 2 years, so i rather have a fiberglass one with paint.

If you are switching to 00-02 will you be selling the headlights hood and fenders I might grab them if you are

Sounds like it will look good. I personally hate the bomex kit, so you are taking a step in the right direction. Also, will you be selling those rims and rubber?

Theres a post in the north east forum, the passanger side fender is damaged from an accident. The hood is going for $175 + a stock 03/05 hood. The headlights ill sell for $50 each + shipping or pick up, one has a few small scuffs from the idiots that sanded my car who were too lazy to remove them.

Thanks for all the good comments, honestly im also bored with the 03 front and i wanted to go with the bc2, but i like the wings west kit a lot better. I also want my car to look different for this show season, i won 2 awards with it as it is and id like to take it to the next level, but im not real happy with any of the 03 + kits. You guys wont be let down, it will be done right, hopefully by the beginning of summer if all goes well. Thanks again

I like the way 03+ headlights look a little better then the 02-.

What kit is that and where did you get it?

It's supposed to be a Bomex, but it's not, your back bumper doesn't stick out as far as mine, and your front has the middle support + the piece between the lights is added.

A knockoff version from what company?

Kross: The kit is make by Versus motorsports its the BMX kit, as far as it being a knock off Versus motorsport are the only one with this kit that i know of, the bomex is similar but not the same so im not sure about all that. When im done it will look even better, i just grew tired of this look and its time for something new.

I like to think of this car as a corvette inspired cavy (Because of the colour being a corvette C6 tint coat red) I just love it and I am really excited to see it once you get the 02 front, I agree the 00-02 looks the best and should look awsome with that paint



I have one true love in my life...And my girlfriend sits next to me in it

hey Bruce...is there anyway you would sell the outer parts of the CF Trunk Bezel? I could pick that up when i get the spoiler? I'm missing those pieces and am in need of it!



Re: time for major change, going under constructio

Boorad: It is corvette inspired thanks for noticing, that is exactly where the color came from because thats the color of the first vette i got to drive, it also had bronze color wheels which i was also thinking about doing, but im not sure if that would look good. Its just an idea
