  • stephenstephen Senior Wagonist
    red with neon green lip! :D suits you...
  • it was functional...
    to create the illusion
    of that extra fat tyre ...
    and the look of a 13 or 12" rim

    Surprisingly, I like the all red more than the polished lip.

    Good work. How long will this last? lol

    :mrgreen:
  • stephenstephen Senior Wagonist
    i like wheels with a polished lip, especially black wheels. in this case though i was surprised to find that i like the all red on red much more than i thought i would.

    looks good bill.

    I like the Blood look! :wink:
  • EDwEFprtsEDwEFprts Senior Wagonist
    def. looks better.
    the polished lip look is so played out now.
    i kind of like cars with body-colored wheels.
    :D

And what did you do with the fancy blue anodized aircaps? Im short a few from some neighborhood kids...aint karma a bitch, lol.

    your just use to seeing tires tucking lols... the yakima is in the garage; toying with the notion of selling it...
    what are the blue anodized aircaps your talking about; did some neighbor hood kids jack yo shit....??
  • shenrieshenrie Council Member
    Dont sell the yak rack. You know youll regret it. Listen to me...like you didnt with your first wagon.
    Naw, I wont miss the ef's, I just want something newer.

    Upon further inspection, it was just blue tape. Eyes are as old as me...sigh.
  • BillBoardBillBoard council member
    got a new piece today... but it is made for RHD cars... danget...
    peep the pix...

    this dashmat insert... 8)
    541.jpg

    it fits but not perfect.... :( i may just do some trimming on the outer lip of the rubber..
    542.jpg

    then if you put it in as if you were driving rhd; it fits great but you only get one section...
    this is most likely what i will do; cut it in half and just use this part... :D
    543.jpg
  • Why not cut it and flip both sections so they fit? Wagon looks great btw.
  • wagodizzlewagodizzle Council Member and EDM expert
    haha thats balling. i remember seeing it in a JDM sedan a long time ago

    thats what i was thinking check pix number 2 (and the text above it :wink: )...

    but still not sure if that is the way i will go...

    I think he meant cut it in half, not trim it?

    Exactly, looks like it would fit fine then. Plus the H would be right side up.

    yeah yeah doggs.. im witcha... it took me a while to catch up... but when flipping
    the longer piece; that slight bend of the dash will still throw it off a little bit...
    it will need trimming regaurdless...

    *Edit; or wait it might work... im confusing myself now...

    i really like the matt though; keeps my cellphone in place... kinda cool..
