Great video! Wow that tv station has an upside down couch for a table. Love the 80's!

I thought they would be to narrow. Guess I like them cause they would look good on mk1 or mk2 1:1 GTI. Guess I'll just dye the pink rims black.

They are 12mm.

So, now that I got hubs and knuckles from Coelacanth (Thanks Again!) I was thinking of new wheels and tires. Not crazy about the pink outrage wheels. I was looking for something old school and came across these. http://i1049.photobucket.com/albums/s393/GotXjaG/Wheels2.jpg or these http://i1049.photo...

Thanks Jerzi and Kyosho fan 2. I've been trying to do a resto on a turbo optima. The parts I'am missing just aren't showing up on eBay for close to 3 months. So I think I want to use modern parts like graphite and zx5 parts. Both of my shock towers are bent. I can find them on eBay, but I had to get...

Sorry for noob question, but how are you cutting the parts? Dremel, cnc? Do you just trace og parts.

I couldn't agree more about articles today. Mags will cover a totally modded car and tell ya the paint code only.
