Veilside D1GT, Custom paint Pictures





What do you think? Photo's taken in an underground parking lot, by Brandon W, over at http://brandonw.wordpress.com/ If your into photography, he has some really nice shots.


New rims and spoiler to come when I have some cash flow.


Edit: Here are high res links for the people who have asked for them to be used as desktop wallpapers. Wonder if I should watermark them?

Hope you enjoy!,
Brad

Looks good. The only thing that bothers is me is the OEM spoiler. It does not flow well with the car. Good stuff nonetheless.

I also agree, I am waiting for some cash flow to get a new spoiler and rims.

Make sure you buy an authentic kit, the knock off's BLOW. Also make sure you have 3-5k set aside for paint and install, depending on how "bad" of a fit the real thing is. All the little extra's add up too, like mounting the headlight washers, fog light mounts, as well as securing the kit to your car. You would be surprised how much the side skirts flex when the door opens and close without doing some custom work.

It's fun when it's all said and done, but the doing sure was a pain

Hot.

Needs a drop, wheels, and as other people said a different spoiler to finish the look completely.

Would love to drop it, but here in Canada there is speed bumps everywhere. It already scrapes at it's current height haha.

New spoiler and rims hopefully when the cash flow start going again

looks nice, first time I've seen it on silver

I admit, I never cared for it on any of the other colors too much, looks clean on yours

When you look into rims, some black ones with a fat polished lip would look amazing with that kit

Yea, I was thinking some Volk SF Challenge ones; black with a polished lip.
