It is. There's pics of a white one floating around and it's probably the sexiest 2g ever

Bah, I don't know about that, but I'll keep it in mind as it does look pretty unique. Why does he have that middle bar?

um yeah, exactly what I meant, I wonder what the turbo wing would look like

99305, RE: My New Rims Posted by R34Eclipse, Jul-02-07 11:40 AM
theres a spyder around me with a turbo wing and its....bleh i dunno im not against it but im not for it, it look "ok" with the top up, and odd with it down.

Yeah.. I thought about that turbo spoiler, but decided against it. I think I'm keeping the outside how it is. Maybe paint will come next summer. I'm thinking of a dark metallic grey, or a similar metallic blue to the one that is on the G35's.

Turbo spoiler looks like butt on Spyders.
Very nice car, man.

They aren't a major brand.. but they are called VIP Status
I picked them off of a guy named Fai Lee. He's a member of the Club DSM.ca board and gets a discount for us on everything. He owns a company called Maxim Wheels.

Awesome.
I'm guessing you would have to get them shipped though eh? That kind of sucks..
|
99322, RE: My New Rims Posted by 505racer, Jul-04-07 04:01 PM
ya... so who does this discount apply to? how much is it?
|
99325, RE: My New Rims Posted by xTheGame77x, Jul-05-07 06:34 AM
well I paid $1000 for the rims. That also includes the mounting, balancing, and installation. His website says "wholesale prices" so I think everyone does get an awesome price. I don't think he promotes his company to anyone other than car clubs. But by all means, contact him if you're interested, and tell him Mike Petro referred you and see what he can do about the price.

I can also say Fai is a great guy. Got my rims from him as well. Great pricing!!
Mike, sweet car man, I do miss your old n/t though. We should meet up sometime, I'm only in Brampton. Also If this is the colour your looking at  I am doing my car in that colour as soon as I can get some cash together and find a good place with a good price. If your interested then we should get ours done together, probably save a shit load.

My Talon? Blah.. I was getting too much negative attention from the cops and never getting breaks when I did happen to get my few and only speeding and tickets. Can't even tell you how many times I got pulled over just for the sake of getting pulled over. OPP are a bunch of idiots to tell you the truth. I Also kind of grew out of the whole body kit / flashy look. Chances are if I did the eclipse conversion on it, and kept it simple..I may have kept it.
Plus... I was turbo envy and didn't want to dump any more money into it. I sold it for $7000 and picked up my Spyder with a blown clutch for $8500
Sure we could meet up, go for a drive, what ever works.
That is the colour I want. However I don't plan on doing it till next summer.. I don't have the money for it now. Here's another picture:

99448, RE: My New Rims Posted by vroom-vroom, Aug-02-07 12:59 PM
MMM love that colour. Next summer works, give me time to save up and go a bit faster. Wow $7000 is really good for the n/t. I'll give you a shout once my megasquirt and new fuel rail are installed.

99451, RE: My New Rims Posted by xTheGame77x, Aug-04-07 01:58 PM
a time for next summer? haha I don't know dude, that's too far away to decide.
It looks like a solid colour so hopefully it won't cost too much..

99452, RE: My New Rims Posted by tbone, Aug-04-07 05:43 PM
dude,not to sidetrack,but spyder+2gb talon conversion+wingless=the ultimate sexy that roll bar makes that car look so good. Tom

99455, RE: My New Rims Posted by avengerowner23, Aug-05-07 12:38 PM
that looks tight, but that talon, is bad-ass
