Finally my F50 pics

***Newer pics Page 2***

So July 2008 I found a white 02 Q45 for a good price in Fremont CA. I flew down, bought it and drove it back to Canada. Since then I have slowly been making progress on the car. Here it is the day I bought it:

Last weekend some friends came over and we dropped it and put on my wheels.

Only small conservative mods so far. I know it's not super low and I am going to add spacers to make the fitment more flush. Overall I am happy with the car. Hope you guys enjoy!

Thanks guys. Lovin the wheels. They really suit the F50.

Definitely EXE style. Pretty understated but it suits me now.

Blitz you are so right. First day driving the car a couple a girls were doing the full rubber neck while sitting at a light and staring like crazy. A few minutes later some guy is yelling out his window at me about the car haha

From zero attention to lots!

Car looks great:biggthumpup: Love the rims and the size seems to fit right for your style. The window visors really set off the roof, that will be one of my next purchases. Just out of curiosity are you happy with the JP spings?

oh crap youre on jp springs? couldnt even tell! well maybe the fronts. thats weird though my stock rear was lower than how yours sits now. i got a bunch of sounds and dynamat type products i guess thats why. :pat: damn i guess thats a ton of weight. must be bad for gas.

we call that the sole drop. :smiley-rofl:

Cheers guys. Yep I am on JP springs. I need to add some bricks to the trunk to make it lower haha

Actually I think it's higher because the rear tire is tall: 275/35/20

thanks guys. I would love to do the JDS kit eventually. Soon I plan on doing a medium tint all around and some spacers.

Yuki lets trade I wish I had black!

Qshadow the springs ride pretty nice. Not quite as nice as stock but then I did add the 20s at the same time. The drop is ok. We all know the gap on the front is huge on these cars. Go coilovers if you want it low!

Thanks guys. I need some new pics. I added 10mm KICS spacers in the front and 20% tint all around which looks better with the black accents on the wheels.

The ride is still very comfy. No one complains at all because it still rides better than lots of stock cars haha

They were around $600 when the dust settled. I may be selling mine soon if you are interested just drop me a PM.
