Gdyup50's "Envy" Build

[Gdyup50]

Wow.........you've nailed it on that stance! The Niche Misano are one of my favourite wheels on the S550. Did you remove the spacers when you went with the new wheels?

Yes I did, that was one of the things I wanted to do....

Installed my aluminum parts....not really sure how I feel about them, I wanted something to smarten up the engine bay, but now I kind of think I should have stuck with black....hmm...and yes I know my engine is dirty, I live in the desert...

Got the same stuff as you brother! This is what i did..

 

[Gdyup50]

LOL, I got the brake booster cover in there too, kind of hard to see...and I got the Steeda Strut bar which is black that I haven't installed yet because I might get a Kenne Bell setup....

Gee what a surprise, I'm too stupid to install the 4th brake light kit myself...got it all hooked up, couldn't get the little red wire to go into the connector properly and broke the connector off of the wire....so that's a wasted hour, and money for the kit....I just don't know why I can't do any of this shit myself, screw trying to install my CAI and Strut brace, I'll probably blow up my car, or render it useless....

And the vision begins....well whenever I get around to it that is..lol

What paint did you use on your GT emblem in the back? Would appreciate a closeup picture of it.

It's not paint, its the same wrap he used on my car, he faced it so the chrome still shows. I'll get ya another pic when I get home, I'm out of state for a week

Ideally, I want to do a 3-color scheme to the front pony and rear GT emblems, that matches my avatar (straight stripes, no flames).

I especially want the chrome effect to show through the film.

I was thinking about tinted transparent film. Is that what you used? Source?

No it's the 3m wrap they used for my stripes....instead of wrapping them, he faced them so the chrome would still show

Yes, instead of taking them off and then having to reattach them, he put the wrap on the face of the emblems...so the face is green but the edges are still chrome...
