Jmeo's 2020 Shelby American GT500 SE Wide Body Build (+ "Phase 2")

[kilobravo]

Jaime: That is a MOST excellent photo of the rear and I see why they added the "canyon" piece. Another place for debris but I'll bet there is very little that winds up in there considering its position in the airflow. Without it, the paint on the quarter panel wouldn't last very long I'd guess.

And man, I LOVE those wheels although cleaning may be a bit time consuming. :-) The lugs are mighty slick too, just wish I could see them better.

I don't know the MY of the car in the photo but I'll presume that you may get different wheels?

This is the wheel design for the SE. Looks like a CFTP replica wheel to me. Again, brushed aluminum or gloss black are the options.

Either is going to be beautiful, But IMO the polished will make it shine.

Have KB photoshop, I hear he is good with Photoshop...

What say you @kilobravo

 

[kilobravo]

Are we talking about the black "canyon" piece in front of the rear fender? And you'd like to see it body color?

Love you Avatar KB. Had a good chuckle looking at it.

Glad it gave you a grin, WP. I chuckle every time I see the photo.

No, the black wheel I posted, on the car, but brushed aluminum........

I know, not too feasible.

 

[kilobravo]

Let me have a look see, Jaime but that is a bit more difficult, maybe impossible.

Jaime: (@Jmeo) As I figured, that wheel is a tough one and I doubt I even came close to what you had in mind. But, without spending hours on the makeover, here's a quickie.

I typically like quickie's...

I don't think that is what he is after as that combination wouldn't be an option. Think he needs to see that wheel on the GT500 WB in all black and in all silver

Those look very close the SV902's, maybe a picture of a brushed sv902 would be "close enough"?

Went to a Cars and Coffee event at Shelby American a couple of weeks ago. They had the green GT500 on display, so I snapped a couple of pics, figured I would share.

Its a shame they widebody that car yet leave flush face wheels on the back instead of a big lip....
