Time4akshun's '06 Shinka (New two tone rims and Tsunami nose!)
 
Hey All,

So I'm back on the scene after having major wheel damage and minor nose damage (to my old Shine Autobahn nose). Wasn't feeling overly great about the car and the hobby until I finally came across some cash for upgrades.

New to the Shinka:

- Tsunami Nose (Authentic Tsunami Styles Poly Nose)
- Racing Hart 721s back on (staggered and two tone paint. Had them painted when I had them straightened and restored)

Nice. I love the color.

Are-Ex-Eight 08-20-2009 07:58 PM

That is the one of the best aftermarket front end's I've seen posted. Most look too big or draw too much attention from the rest of the car. That one looks great!

blackenedwings 08-20-2009 08:14 PM

The car looks great! I definitely agree the Tsunami bumper is one of the very best looking for the car, it just has issues sagging at the corners and needs to occasionally be re-adjusted.

Alucard 08-20-2009 08:21 PM

wow a blast from the past... hey man how have you been? haven't seen you at any meets for few years....

anywho... the car looks great :icon_tup:

Macius8 08-20-2009 08:32 PM

wow where/when did you get the racing harts? I've been looking all over for the 721's and rh s3 pro's with no luck :(
Nice car!!! :)

TopGear8 08-20-2009 08:37 PM

Looks good but one major improvement would be to paint the mesh grille black. It will look MUCH better.

alz0rz 08-20-2009 08:58 PM

Tsunami = win.

Agreed on painting the mesh black.

time4akshun 08-20-2009 08:58 PM

Top,

My Autobahn had black mesh which was great. I guess the showoff in me likes the bit of bling this time around... Your car looks great too...

Fortunate Few 08-20-2009 09:07 PM

i like it! the color is so elegent!

blackenedwings 08-20-2009 09:19 PM

I actually like the look of the silver mesh depending on color. Matches very well in this case. I kept the mesh silver for mine too to match with the polished RPF1s.

Looking good!

lepichichi 08-21-2009 11:30 AM

those wheels are HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT......:) i love them!

SayNoToPistons 08-21-2009 11:52 AM

Love the wheels and the front. Mesh would look better in black though. What spoiler is that?

time4akshun 08-21-2009 11:56 AM

Tsunami nose and Racing Beat rear wing. Autobahn sides..

SayNoToPistons 08-21-2009 01:53 PM

Do you have any more pictures of the rear? I couldn't find that wing on RB's site. I don't think they sell that item any more, just the nose they've always had.
