Widest/Most Aggressive is250? Build Thread

Dropped my car off at Supreme Customs Garage in Homestead, Florida 2 weeks or so ago. Here's what's going down


-Repair cracked authentic vertex side skirt(off in pics)
-Molded trunk with raised quarters
-Shaved roof antenna, wrap in gloss black
-Custom trunk, no hard-lines or anything crazy, just a false floor, etc
-Wrap interior trim pieces in brushed aluminum
-Tint windshield
-Custom rear camber arms
-Custom rear toe arms
-Custom rear bumper brackets
-Install and customize front Megan UCA
-Wrap entire car in color that has not been seen stateside, ever (no I'm not saying the color name yet)
-Oh yeah, and fit 19x12 -10 SSR MS3's in the rear with stock body metal
-Fronts are 19x10, will have a 12mm-15 spacer, with a little fender work as well


The day I dropped it off!

-Trunk Work

My ride height is pretty much almost aired out, I have videos on Instagram to show it move backwards and forwards. Custom brackets were made to allow the rear bumper to re-align with the extended quarters. _o0hkillem is my IG name ( its the letter o, then the number zero). I will be updating as much as I can, but check my IG out for quicker updates! :woot::woot:


UPDATE MARCH 18TH, 2014


Drivers side almost done, had issues with wheel making contact with the bag at ride height (passenger side did not have this issue), with some custom camber stuff it got figured out

Looks good but you should add the stock body line onto the fenders. Looks much more finished that way.

I don't understand? The only things getting "raised and widened" are my trunk spoiler and the quarters NEXT to the spoiler, that's what raised quarters are for this car.

i think he thought you meant you were gonna radius the fenders, i.e. raise the arch as opposed to just extending it.

Those are fender flares not a stock metal wide body and he also wasn't running 12" rears, and he bought the car from someone else as it sat. That car is beyond gorgeous though!

Everyone is entitled to their opinion! I felt if we went straight out from stock factory fenders it would've ended up looking like shit IMO. Just not my style, it needed to come down so I could achieve the camber I wanted with the ride height I wanted.

true, there is fine balance between looking good parked, and looking good at ride height. most aggressive builds only look good parked, aired down. come ride height, they look awful IMHO. this should be a good balance. can't wait!

Exactly, very well put. I don't like people telling me I have an "advantage" being on air, regardless if it's true or not. I didn't get air ride to drive around 4x4'n lol, it will be proved once my build is done which should be tomorrow :dance:

Looks really good rolling. I like the front and rear camber at ride height.i don't like the rear when it's aired out. Too bad this thing is parting out.
