nice car goose.

Goosse
11-27-2003, 04:18 PM

11-27-2003, 04:25 PM
how much it cost ya ? looks good from here but have you got any close up pics of the grill on ya car ?

Goosse
11-29-2003, 11:02 AM
No, I don't have any close ups (had to return the digi cam, borrowed it from school), but I can assure you the fitment is perfect. The only thing I did was replace the mesh because the openings in the mesh were to big and you could see right trough. I think I paid something of 50 euro for it. Don't really remember (I have it 3 years now). Only negative point was the long waiting period + first grille I got was cracked, but they replaced it without making any trouble

I found this pic on the website of Autostyling.nl

But you can also order a "Mugen" replica grill, you can also order the Mugen emblem which will fit in the middle.
Otherwise it will be delivered without that emblem.

It's painted by a pro. I can get a good deal on painting parts (a friend of mine works in the boddy repair of a Mercedes dealership, so he paints all my parts).

That's one off the choices I have in my head... but I don't know which I will chose.

Here are a few I like

option 1

Rota Grid or Volk TE-37s (fake or real)

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid95/p421eb47f9077a03a3e7832cad6e6dd01/fa30e26f.jpg

Rota C8 or Mugen MF8

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid95/p863886cc32826dc7bb88269f1f2e8f31/fa30e2e0.jpg

Buddyclub or a lot of copies :rolleyes:

I actuelly like each one of these rims, but there is always a little doubt...

The grids... very nice... on some cars. I've seen a lot off pics of cars with these rims. Some seem really nice with these rims, others are ruined by the rims... So I'm not sure.

The mugens... probable like these the least of the 3. Still very nice rims and very exclusive (even if I take the Rota C8... but IMO seem a littel 'to much' for my EK. But like I said, still very very nice rims for EK.

The Buddyclub. Very nice rims. Seem to suit the EK very well (probably the best of all 3 rims), but you see them sooooooooooooo much over here. Ever since AVB bought a stock off copies of those rims, you see them everywere...

I know how that feels, most rims that are nice to look are are also the ones that almost everybody has
So the more exclusive ones are a better and obviously the more exclusive choice
But on the exclusive part is also a exclusive price :uhoh:

But you were thinking of a Bronze rim?
I mean on your green car, I think it would look good, but like you said you have to see it in real life

I think the Rota Grids or the Volk TE-37 looks best IMO
But what about the Volk CE28N in bronze

I took the liberty to shop the Rota Grids on your car :D
Both bronze and silver versions, thay are the same size as your current rims

Thanks for the photoshops. I also made a few, but they didn't tell much...

I'm thinking of the Rota Grids with a steel grey center and a polished lip.

these were the photoshops I made

and the ones on the left are the steel grey ones with polished center

and the reason I doubt on the grids, they seem to have a different look depending on the color/lowering of the car

example

IMO doesn't look good

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid95/p47b33a57f64d55c1cf0b948655afc799/fa3030a3.jpg

but if you look at this one, this is just :smokin: :smokin: :iceslolan
