Bakerdd"s '99 GT: Project stance



It's one thing to not like what someone does to there ride but to go as far as going through the effort posting a picture then calling it ultra gay. Yea someones a bit butthurt. I'm all for different especially when that person is one of the first to pull something extremely off. Sure we can all go low on SSC/Eibachs etc or even coilovers but who has done bags besides a handful of people. His car...his style.
 
Yup Eagles, Kv5, Bullits all been done several times and are played out. Different is good as long as it's not some neons/chrome pillar kind of crap.

If you read the whole thing on my facebook you can see it wasn't me doing all the hating, i just stated that the rear doesnt flow imo...... hell i only made 20 comments out of over 160.
 
The visual bolt on market for these car's has been gone for a while now (nothing new coming out), so good on ya for "stancing" a g-p, but it just doesn't look right

Your gonna get criticized over this, and have the same amount of time trying to explain the benefit of running camber as a Honda guy tries explaining his huge wing...
 
Whoa this blew up haha

I just spent a good hour arguing with a bunch of morons how you're car is the first to go at this style, how it is not rice and how awesome it really is for the community. Waste of time some may say, why would I waster my breath with these close minded bastards... I did it cuz nobody deserves to get bashed like that.

ok, so, sure, good on ya for doing your own thing with your car.... but running an extra 10mm spacer on that's gonna deff turn me off from this thread....

There are just some certain things that should stay withen certain car communities... Next we're gonna start seeing fake rusted hood's on gp's, i'm sorry man, but i un-subbed, looked good up intill now

I suppose you have a point with that, I agree that some things suit some cars better. The whole "stance" thing doesn't include stuff like rusted hoods, that stuff is just all trendy right now. I'm just looking for good fitment and a low car. You won't see any rust or sticker bombing or roof racks here.

And thats just thing that some people have a hard time understanding. I don't mind criticism and I dont feel any obligation to explain the camber to anyone past that I just wanted to. Its just a project for me and I'd be the same person with or without the car. No reason to do anything unless you enjoy it right?



Anyways, I appreciate the support from everyone! I definitely think its super cool for you guys to stand up for me. I've never had haters before in my life and its a weird feeling ;)
 
I just read thru the whole thread, still not a fan of the camber in the rear, but im kinda excited to see what else your going to do in the future.
 
Wasn't directed at you..just a general comment on what I read on those FB groups a lot in the past. I didn't actually view it since it's deactivated at the moment.
 


I'm not a fan of camber and the "stance" look personally, so I don't do it to my rides. But I do respect those that do, it is a hard look to do properly and pull off.

Your car looks great and if someone doesn't like the look, that is their problem.

As said, Haters gonna hate, let them, can't please everyone, if they don't like it, most likely they're just jealous.

The biggest laugh I get is when someone says "If I had the money, I'd do it differently"... but you don't have the money, you broke, stop *****in.
 


i can realistically say that i wouldnt have picked those wheels for my own car, but otherwise the execution is spot on for what was attempting to be accomplished here.
