NEW mod?
Tuesday, November 14, 2006 1:53 PM
ive been thinking bout this for a while and now need to make a final decision since its winter time, so i can get it done in time for next year. The first pic is one as the car sits now minus the wheels. The second pic is one of what i m thinking bout doing. And the third is all shaved. Any opinions will def help make my decision easier. and i know it may not be the best photoshop but it gives the right idea lol. Also note that the front bumper may be replaced with the drift if i do this. Thanks ahead of time.















pic coming soon

just leave it alone and add the drift front, thats your best option i think....

the only thing that will get u any lower is tubbing the wheel wells in which case you'd have to shave the kit down. i say leave it and paint it

leave it but shave everything, except the spoiler. i like wingless cars but having a molded spoiler is very nice. like eazy said, paint it.

i def agree it needs painted asap its been long enough without a paint job and i want it painted but truth is i prob wont paint it til spring anyway, and i do realize i have to tub it in order to get it to lay that low and i am bout 95 % sure with the wide body i could get the front that low, i also have a chop top body dropped blazer i am working on so i have been thinking bout just painting this one and focusing on the blazer, decisions decisions lol, keep the comments coming please and thanks to those who have already

i thought the same but the only reason i cant go lower is i bottom out the struts and the ground. so you would have to chop and channel it or something cuz im less than a 1/4 off the ground now and if it wasnt for the struts being so damn tall i would lay the front on the ground. spyderwizard is the lowest on air in the front to date so if you have any ideas please share because everyone has wondered how to get it lower in the front.

and im not trying to tell you, you cant do anything sorry if i sound like an ahole in that. its just really hard to get much lower in the front. hence why the easy street car only laid the rear out with a cantilever setup.

na i dont think your an ahole lol its not that easy to get me p'd off, but i do have an idea on rebuilding the front struts (i have some extra ones that i will obviously try it on first) and i have other ideas floating just not sure if its worth the work when its already one of a kind but i strive to have something different in the custom scene thats why i am doing the blazer the way i am


1yellowj: i do have pics and i am in the proess of moving the vehicle to my new house, when i do i will get some more updated pics up, it looks like a heap right now though lol, but its coming along
if you are wondering i chopped the top 5" and body dropped it 5" so when it lays on the ground the roof will be to my waist, lol, the truck will be just around 4 feet when layed out

Add the drift bumper and leave the rest as is.

Hmm...from the side it looks good with no spoiler...you should get pics from the back with the spoiler shaved..

Sideskirts...I like the second pic but with the vent in the back bumper shaved.

I also agree with the front bumper swap...but I believe between me and you talking your probably just gonna modify it to make it completely custom...correct?

Looking good of course

You guys like brothers with nearly identical cavs or something???



Re: NEW mod?

keep the spoiler....looks pretty good and flows with the hard lines of the widebody

try the bc2 front...will look better than the drift IMO

i like it with the sides and not completely shaved there. if you want to do something to that area, make the side ducts real ala a dot or one of those people.

other than that it looks pretty good. if you want to tub it, i say go for it, but it doesnt actually NEED it. do those ^^^ few mods and then paint it. then focus on your chopped blazer (and post some pics mmmm chopped mmmm)

I shouldn't have said Identical, I jsut saw both with grey primered, with what looks to be similar rims, and widened fenders. Upon further inspection theres seems to be quite a few differences
