SSEiyah93 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Thanks for the info "95" and thanks for summing it up in a sentence Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95naSTA Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I had no idea w-body stuff was that compatible, how much modification if any was needed to make it all work? 8'' W-body xlaces should go directly on a Bonne with NO problems. The Bonneville wheels will not go on a w-body without spacers though(for the front, they work in the rear just fine). I had rubbing problems in the rear with 235's on them with stock suspension.

Euro Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Thanks. And yeah purple. It's one of those love or hate things. I'm sick of seeing red, blue, etc. I hear you on that one. I didn't want to do mine red, I wanted it silver...but red was all I found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I had rubbing problems in the rear with 235's on them with stock suspension. I only test fitted them with some typical 225/60/16 sized tires on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cully77 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I hear you on that one. I didn't want to do mine red, I wanted it silver...but red was all I found. I like the center caps with some silver. ------ I used duplicolor hi temp engine enamel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 That looks good. I found silver in the rattle can, but didn't get it. I wanted it to be brush on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, that's kind of a crappy pic though too (with my crappy tires), I should take it again during the daytime. I actually just sprayed it onto a painting tray and then brushed it on.

GPX Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Here's the car after a slight drop and brake upgrade: Love those purple brakes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95naSTA Posted July 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Thanks. It's definitely a love or hate thing.. The color looks waaay better in person though. It's more like an anodized purple but more shiny/glossy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the Duplicolor kits come in a few colors (yellow, I think blue, and of course red). I think it's funny that you guys see so many painted calipers that you are sick of red ones. Way up here in Vermont, in my little town of 5000 people, painted calipers are real unique. My red ones (I thought about yellow for about 30 seconds--my car's all about red) still seem fresh! PS: sorry about the hijack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSEiyah93 Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I love those purple brakes and the purple shocks...I think I'm about to have another SSEi and I might get purple brakes for it when it would need them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
