Carcrobatic's White '00 GT ... SOLD!



Re: Carcrobatic's White '00 GT

Car show was a blast as it always is, some really rockin' cars were out this year!
The highlight of the day was getting my DSLR pinstriped, I've been wanting to do it for years and I finally found someone to do it. Check it out!

Then came Sunday for the autocross. So my dad and I got up super early and rushed down there. The cars that showed up consisted of junk yard beaters to cars that shouldn't even exist.

For example, a 1985 Ford Fiesta with a Corvette C4 engine bolted mid-ship, which was paired up with a massive bullet-proof looking tranny, and last but not least a full set of race slicks to top it off.

After the first run it was really made clear that my 95,000 mile springs+strut combo wasn't doing the job, and my GMPP sways weren't helping much either. Not to mention my mis-matched tires! :th_jester:

All in all it was a blast, now I really can't wait to get this thing on some proper coils and rubber.

Lined up at grid, the Pontiac looking massive next to puny Miatas.

FINALLY got the spoiler mounted. Looks super badass IMO. Can't wait to get this thing lowered on FR500's.

I could have made them a bit nicer but my patience and effort levels are zero right now.

I think it looks great at all angles. IMO the old OEM spoiler isn't big enough to match the Pontiac's huge a**. Now that I got a spoiler to match up with it's rear I think it all comes together much more nicely.

I agree that the bigger spoiler looks better, I'm just not a fan of the gap between the spoiler and the tail lights.

Plus you get bonus points for having a white 4-door

that spoiler spoiler is just to big for my liking. i like the 40th and the limited spoilers. but car looks clean man
 
Re: Carcrobatic's White '00 GT | With new spoiler pics!

Long time no post.

I got a job at Americas Tire as a tech, now I'm finally on my way to get some coilovers! I'm super excited to finally go low and get rid of my super overused stock struts/springs. The question now is what wheels am I going to slap on when I get them? I really like the Fr500s and all, but I keep coming back to Bakerdd's thread and gazing at his slammed coupe. The XXR's look damn good, but I wouldn't get a 10in wide rim, too big for me.

Right now I'm stuck on the Fr500's and Silver XXR 521's. Thoughts?

XXR Wheels: 521 18x8.5 Machined/Silver Rims
or
Black Machined FR500 Mustang Wheel 18x9 (05-14 All) V1149-896530BMF - Free Shipping!

Oh, I also wanted to ask if anyone can see my Avatar? It doesn't show up anywhere for me expect my profile page.
 
Re: Carcrobatic's White '00 GT | With new spoiler pics!

Negative on the avatar. I think you may have set it as your profile pic accidently. Anyway I just remembered when I saw your username that I sent you a pm a couple weeks ago about the window visors and I dont think you responded after I replied. Did you get that PM?
