    Default 59FiFTY's FR12 Build Thread!

    It's about that time to get everything ready for FR12! Even though my girlfriends BURFFDAY is the day before the show she's willing to go! I am going to be so broke until that weekend is over

    I still have a little work to do on my car yet, but for the most part there's not much else I really want/need to do besides save for boost.

    Here's my to-do list:

    - Replace my rear Blisstein springs with new KWV1 springs to achieve moar lows-- CHECK!
    -Possibly powdercoat the Monte Carlo's
    - Possibly downsize to a 10" or 12" sub in the trunk to accommodate for more space instead of 2 12's
    - Install Massive rear camber arms that are sitting in my room
    -Install my K-MAC camber plates
    - Order toe arms from either Keegan Komponents or Massive
    - Order tires for said Monte Carlo's
    - Get badgeless grille and 3dCarbon spoiler painted/installed
    - anddddd last but not least buy my girlfriend a REALLY nice birthday gift since she may be driving in the car on her 21st BURFFDAY

    I'll update this as I go!

    Most recent pics I have of my car;



    Obviously before winter mode ^

    I'll post pics of it tomorrow in winter mode. Looks like absolute butthole to be honest




    My plans are to have my car look very similar to this come march

    Yeah they're pretty nice wheels! I bought them used so I was kinda stuck with getting flat black hence why I'm getting these powdercoated.

    Yeah it's just plasti-dip so I can take it off at any time. I may or may not leave it there. Not sure yet.
