Bola rosa Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I noticed a bola green colour in my flower garland Found a nasty stone chip Excuse the shitty excuse of a paint match on the mirror :/ lol I attempted to wrap the roof in black. It went well but I got bored half way down so I stopped and peeled it off lulz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) I think the issue with the 'stance' may be down to the front wheels being cambered but not the rear, some camber shims & possibly spacers on the rear would tidy it up nicely imo. And I think the california plates need shortened or smoothed plate recesses. Do like this though keep up the good work Sam.

Bola rosa Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I have some camber shims being machined for this years show seasons. And the Cali plates are just for shows. I'm not overly sure if they'll be kept this year to be fair. Thanks! What's your opinion on the colour coded wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTIChris Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Nice work you've done, a set of Cambridge rears would do that pin striping the justice it deserves Any interior plans, apart from the carbon console (which I like) ?

Bola rosa Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Plans are leather interior, black with bola green stitching. Wheels are now painted and the lips are still chrome. And I was debating cambridge rears but I like all reds too. Pics later Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bola rosa Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 The last meet/show of 2012 was the all dubs Halloween meet.

Bola rosa Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Forgot to add this photo: I noticed a bit of rust bubbling up so I rubbed it down and primered it up ready for the booth... This is where bola rosa starts her 2013 change Masked the dish... Masked the tyre, rubbed down the drum, and layed on the primer Bit of wet and dry... Another coat of primer, (I look back in hind sight and wish I took the weights off...) oh well I can always do the rears again... Bolaaa So I did the other three too I gave them a polish up and sorted the dishes... Comments please Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalum-arosa Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Where you gloss blacked the rear bumper are you doing the same too the front? However this is still a lovely little rosa you've done an amazing job well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bola rosa Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Yeah Someone just drove Infront of me yday, I was in the snow, locked up and shunted the side of his car. The pressed plate is a write off and seems quite relevant now... (the letters got pressed flat) The bumper is scuffed but other than that, she did well the little tank <3 On the upside, wheels got temporarily fitted yday too (yes I know the car got washed nd waxed shortly after this photo.) What dya think people?!?!? Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Green Giant Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 i like them, but you chose a wheel thats big in the 'stance' world. to make them really work, you need to execute it a little better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalum-arosa Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 I notice you sprayed the wing mirrors too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bola rosa Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Yeah glossy black. And the front bumper will be getting the same treatment as the rear I'm currently having some camber shims being made up too. Camber the rears, and drop it like it's hot.
