Quit going to that kart track and save up for WSIR/SOW in June. 2 tracks for $100! Raceline USA Track Hopper!

I'm not ready yet! I have to prep my car to show in June (Wekfest), then I need to save up for track brakes. I nearly melted mine at the "kart track" hah. They were smoking

Meanwhile, got a new part ;)

I haven't updated you guys in a while! My Fit has changed quite a bit. I now have the Mugen rear, carbon fiber JDP lip, new mint powdercoat on my wheels, and I joined a second crew called the Stance Stories Syndicate (Local Origins is still my main crew <3)

Anyways, here's the pics!

You car is looking real good! I do however miss the pink rims, those were badass. If you don't mind me asking, how much was your JDP lip?

I don't like pink as a color, though it did look good on my fit. But it's just not my style!

My lip was $275 picked up

I like the mint green better! It's a lot more subtle and chill. Mugen rear looks best when slammed like that. JDP too. Deng, haha. I'm jealous!

Haha exactly! Mint is way less attention; it's nice to not be stared at by EVERYONE on the freeway

Yee! Dunno 'bout everyone else but even though it doesn't seem as eye-catching, I can't help but take a second glance. It's a really nice color/look haha definitely unique :popc:

You've already got your wheels painted twice.. about how much does it run you to powdercoat if you don't mind me asking? :hyper:

x4x5x1x 06-15-2012 09:05 AM

Don't get me wrong, I'm digging the mint too. I was just surprised that the pink and SSM looked so good. It's also nice to see a girl tricking out her car too! Not much of that happening out here in Michigan.

$40 a wheel for the powdercoating, which isn't bad. It's the preparation that's costly becuase I have to have my tires removed at a shop, then put back on afterwards.

Advanced Finishing Systems in Riverside. they wanted to charge $50 a wheel but I talked them down. I definitely would not go there if I were you, though. The rims look fine in pictures, but up close the coat is thin in some areas and you can see pink. I don't think they sand blasted it like they were supposed to. I won't be going back

I love your car Panda. I would love to see more pictures with the mint green wheels. Very unique and cute!

MORE MINTY PICS!!!!!!!!! wow i paid 260 for my green powder
that broke down like this
sandblast - $60 cash
powder - $50 its a candy
labor - $150, included a chrome base and a candy coat, and a clear topcoat also included jb weld a fingernail sized nick on edge of one wheel, and scuff and cheese cloth

i didn't have any labor for mount and dismount cuz i work at a dealership

my guy says if the wheels are in good enough condition, he can just scuf and prep, and a single stage powder color = would be 130 -150 a set
so take these #'s to your guys down there and tell them to meet it of beat it
powder costs about $12 a pound, it takes less than two pounds for a set of 4 16"wheels, there s no reason they are charging more than i am paying!!!
