lol i was just about to say that your first order of business should be to get rid of those wheels...especially the back, they look so goofy sticking out so far lol

TADailyDriver

I have white formula rims on my car i may be willing to sell for a good price but i need to find a black GTA rim first. if you want pics i can send them.

racerx520

i dont really have a use for new rims...im planning on fixing up my rims when i get a chance, repainting the black and re-finishing the polished aluminum....too bad its a daily driver lol

mw66nova

i might be interested. what we talking price wise and can i get some close up pics?

racerx520

lol yeah, i thought that was you offering me wheels to try to buy some for your car lol...i kinda zoned out and didnt realize what i said until about 2 seconds ago lol...sorry

ssean92

Well id prolly sell the set w/ the WS6 center caps for 200? Or ill trade for 2 front black GTA rims w/o dimples or maybe trade for 1 black GTA front rim and like 100 bucks? the rims are in good condition, i just cleaned them today spent over 2 hours doing it to bring them back to the original white because they were a light orange from sitting for so long. 1 front and 1 rear rim do have some curb rash which was there when i got the formula. the right rear does have some paint flakes but nothing that cant be touched up. I only have a close up view of 1 rim right now. i can get more tommrow. If you wanna make me a deal as well go ahead and well talk.


right front?, you can see some curb rash bottom right hand corner of pic.



picture of them on my car

hey matt i know a guy selling 16x8 formula wheels. Has them on his ebay store. Not perfect but workable and possibly pretty cheap i'm not sure how much for them. strip the clear and clean them up they will look pretty good except for the mild curb rash/ding on the one wheel

racerx520

wow those ebay ones are incredibly clean!

TADailyDriver

yes, But look at all the curb rash and how the clear coat is cracking

Orr89RocZ

they are ok. they could use some work but if the price is right, they may be worth it. strip the clear and smooth out the curb rash, reclear and it should look good again

TADailyDriver

ya, my rims were tinted orange and all pitted and after alot of wheel cleaner and scrubbing using an sos pad, they slowly but shurely came clean. They used to make my car look like crap cause they were so nasty looking but now deffinetly do give the car some justice. Now i just need to get the car painted lol

mw66nova

TADailyDriver...is your price with tires? also...any idea on shipping cost to ga? i gotta lead on a set of black gta wheels right now here local that i might pick up...i'm not really certain which would look better on this car right now...and those wheels being white will not exactly work for me totally as i'm thinking this car will not end up white...which means i'd have a lot of work ahead of myself to get them stripped and whatnot...

The have chrome runners w/ white inserts. ive seen them on a black formula before and look amazing!!! price is without tires and shipping should be around 70-120 bucks ups, depending on how they get boxed up. I would like to get a GTA rim before i sell them tho so that way i have something to put on right away seeing as it is my daily driver right now. I can work with you on price as well, im very negotiable. Im just in dire need of a GTA rim.

mw66nova

ok...let me think about it for a little while.

TADailyDriver

no problem mw66nova, im not really in any big hurry.

rwdtech

what about the crash damage? are you just leaving it?

TAdan

Nice find. I'm with you, put some GTA's on there.

Nice car, great potential.
Agreed that wheels have to go.

mw66nova

what do you think?

rwdtech

this is why i ask

mw66nova

ah...i gotchya. i'm planning to fix the collision damage yes, but it's not very high on the priorities right now. i'm wanting to just get everything running correctly and get some suspension upgrades and wheels/tires under it's belt...then i'll start looking at getting it looking better.

just out of curiousity...what do you guys think about the hood? i'm kinda digging the stock flat hood, not many people have a plain jane hood on these cars...normally it's a GTA, TA, Powerbulge or aftermarket...think i could make this stock flat hood look good or should i just go straight for the powerbulge?

BLACK ICE

I would say powerbulge but I would also say do formula rims n not gtas im kinda sick of gtas lol

Orr89RocZ

keep it all flat man!

mw66nova

that's what i'm thinking...been my style for a long time...and i'm gonna make sure it doesn't get a spoiler...i think...

EH82Z28

Leave the flat hood for sure
