Rolling on 22"
Well guys, it's been a while since my last visit but I'm back with a new project. It's a wide bodied 8 with 22" wheels. the car is still far from finish but it's been a tradition that i would just post the step by step proccess here, so here's a couple of teaser pics.
Pros and Cons, bring it..I wanna hear what u think.

Anything under the hood for performance, or stock?
22's look a bit big and heavy imo. Looks like you've def spent some time on your ride and you are making something that is a one of a kind...Congrats.
Keep it posted up...what color are you gonna go with in the end?

+1 For orginality my friend!
The kit looks alright a bit fat but alteast you can tell there is a widebody kit on it. The R-magic one to me just doesnt give it that imediate sence of being fatter than stock when I see it in pictures atleast could be different in person I know. I'm not worried about your color choice since you always have good taste and its always over the top!
I hope/pray that there is going to be some type of power mod to the engine be it turbo or super charger now that would just set things off nicely imo.
Keep us updated, if you have any photo's of the install process we'd like to see 'em

Well it's been going under a very heavy mod and I assure u that it will look a lot better in the final stage. a lot cleaner than this.
Noticed a lot of new ideas been put in the design such as the door handles, they're not shaved but hidden under the top panels of the door. The top panels itself blends in with the front and rear fender so it'll give a more subtle look on the wide fenders.
Still considering a few options for the color scheme.
Not too sure about making the mould Chris, u interested??

if i lived any where near you i can guarantee i would be one of your customers.....as for the mold you dont think you can mass market these world wide?....how many wide bodies are there?....with the right price point you could pull it off nicely

Well the kit itself looks absolutely awesome!....... but the wheels shouldn't be any bigger than 20's... definitely not 22's. Just my 2 cents It looks like you're going about it the right way though.....good job!

It almost looks like a toy car in that first pic the way the background is faded out.
Kit looks really good and seems you need 22's to fill that bitch out! I gotta see how this turns out...
