Never have I ever seen two Zinc Yellow Coupes together at the same time


Sent from my iPhone

I had the same response when I pulled into the parking lot on Saturday!

While Vinny's beast of a car was on the dyno getting tuned, I was in there for some suspension refresh. New ball joints up front. Some new bushings & tie rods in the back.

@blwn89gt , @stangfreak - Great to meet both of you guys in the shop this weekend.

I hope I don’t regret it bro. I just wanted something a bit simpler, I love these cars on 5 spokes. But right now with the stock wheels on I’m regretting it

I don't think your going to regret it at all. 5 spokes look great on these cars in my opinion.
Here's a pic to ease your mind. Oh and not to mention how those calipers are going to pop. 20141129_105918-1-1.jpg

Oh nice. Didn't hear about that one
It’s the 6th year they have had it, probably the biggest show in the area when the weather corporates and there’s a big turnout. Weather was crap that day but was worth the 2 hr trip for me to be able to check my old car out

Picked up an extra set of AFS 18s I’m having hard time picking a color to powder coat them. The clear is bad on the machine finish. Any suggestions are welcomed. I have a chrome set of AFS on my Sonic now I’m thinking a gloss black color like my old white 04 cobra Tell me what you guys think

Personally not a fan of black and blue, but you could always plastidip them to get an idea of how'd they look

How did you get AFS wheels? Thought they don’t make anymore? I switched to 18 cosmis 005r but still think I should of stick with the cobra wheels

I washed mine and took this shot as the sun was setting. Really liked the picture so I figured I’d share.

I had a set on my old 04 in black I like them glossy. I’m not sure how the black will look with the sonic either. If I plastic dip them it’s that faded black and I know I won’t like them that way.

They were sitting in someone’s storage collecting dust I don’t even know what to do with them anymore I really wanted a black chrome but I only found one pic they look great and the rest of the videos and pics the color don’t look right.

Every powder coater I show these pics to they say they are PVD blah blah and won’t look the same. That’s why I’m turned off on the look I was going for
