Talking Updates on Silvie

I just got back from a show in Dallas (XDC) and my friends shot a few pictures of my car. The car is a bit dirty from the rain so please don't mind haha. Hopefully I will be getting a real photo-shoot and not simple one spot photos like these. Enjoy and positive/negative comments are welcomed

Onto the pictures:
With no sidemarkers yet...

Thanks Slammed Garage for the fender modifications and you can see bits of the Rmagic spoilers

Rear fitment

Front shot

New mirrors o.0

Nardi with Baller Bolts. I need to find a way to get that one flat and even!

With clear corners!

Looks so good dude! I see you took my route and got Gunmetal Volks GTS's as well. I wish I could have gotten a more little more agressive fitment on mine.

These wheels have been one of my favs and I happened to stumble upon a good fitment and condition set.

Interior is just brilliant.

Where/how did you get the bride door inserts done? It's looking like I'll end up with a saddle-colored interior combo which isn't my favorite so I'm already thinking of how I'm gonna get rid of the brown and replace it with some kind of microfiber or suede.

Alcantara for my steering wheel.

I did the interior myself. I just purchased the Bride fabric and took my time to do the door inserts.

I didn't think our cars would've pulled it off also! At least it is a reversible mod if I didn't like it...but I ended up liking it a lot

Way to represent dude, you scared me at first with the corners, I hate that look. Are you missing your steering wheel controls? I miss having a removable steering wheel.

Looks sick bro, hopefully I will have my car finished and we can both attend 512 project if they have it back again. I can't believe I missed this event.

Thanks homie . If they come back I want another full makeover of my car! I already have something in mind but just don't know when yet.
