So I took an original picture of my wagon:


And got to daydreaming...

Was wondering what it would look like if I painted my rims. Then I wondered, what would it look like lowered alittle. After that I wanted to see what we would have if I tinted the windows... and last, but definatly not least, i thought I would do something about that grill.

So I slapped it all together, and here is what I came up with:


Now... just gotta come up with $700 or $800.

looks good like that.

i don't like the modded grill though.

Slam it bitch!

Cut those coils!

Actually, I will be cutting some stock coils on the new wagon just to get it down a little on those low profile tires.... And if that sucks, I got stockers to go back on.

why dont you spend the money on getting it cleaned up a bit. looks like that bumper could use some work.

All in due time my friend. I still havent figured out how to adjust the bumper... no one has answered my questions in the thread I put.

Anyhow, this is all daydreaming, of course IM not going to go out and empty my bank account to accomplish this look....

-Brian

I do like that color scheme on the wheels. and that would be pretty cheap to do.

yup, as soon as i can afford the new tires, i will go ahead and paint the rims.

gotta buy new cv's and bearings 1st.

-Brian

I didn't mean to come off like an ass... I like the wheels also.

i have s custom grill i made for sale right now, looks like that, painted the stock white also with AWD emblem in it, looking for $100 OBO if your intrested.

$100!?!?!? ROFL!

I can make one for free. Thanks, but no thanks.

-Brian

excuse the hell out of me, i paid more then that for the propper paint, filler, sanding paper, mesh, emblem, and grill.

so unless you own a body shop or your just going to do it ghetto style with stuff lyin around dont be rude.

i was just letting you know, you could have said thanks but too much $$, instead of being rude.

Sorry for sounding rude. But Ive modified grills before, and I think i paid around $20 in material. Alittle dremel action, a fiberglass repair kit, some sandpaper and paint.

I have access to the material (at cost through work) and am not interested in your grill.

-Brian

..

Lower it for sure.

Make sure you sandblast the rims down to nothing or else they will chip. I repainted mine with some Dupont Mazda miata silver w/ pearl clear. They look great still after 10K.

+1 on the sandblasting.

Did you sand/paint the inside of your rims (what the tire hides) too?

To tell you the truth, stock is looked nicer, before you made it look like a ricer IMO, but then again IMO lowering the car looks bad, the stock height looks best hands down, on the wagon, on sedans they look good lowered. If i were you, i would get gold rims, stock height, and tint the windows a few percent. DONT FLAME ME

Yeah low wagons!

I'd paint the wheel lips too.
