Another M20 Swap

[Deutschman]

These m20 swaps are getting really popular! Good looking car.

I'm interested in how that quad headlight setup will look with the turbo flares, in my mind it would potentially look better that way.

Finally got some lights in them.

Also, got the thing on the ground. I have a little bit more adjustment on my coil over, but I don't think I'll want to go any lower. Those 225's really fill up the back fenders.[/img]

Looking reeealy goof. Love those meaty tires, and the quad lights are nice as well.

Sometimes I forget what my car started out like when I dropped it off at Bonnevillains. 

 

 

 

I managed to get them to finish up all (mostly) the things I wanted for a fair price. New trunk floor is in, fuel tank mounted (fun surprise coming on that one) muffler mounted (staggered twin tip, from an S4 I believe) and side skirts on. Just talked to them and they shot these pics as they were getting ready to roll it next door to get painted. Should be about two weeks (hopefully for real this time) before it's all orange.

Stopped by a few days ago and they had it all shiny.

 

 

 

Turns out inka is sort of a hard color to photograph. None of the pictures really do the color justice. 

 

Stopped by again today and they had the flares and side skirts on.  Super stoked to see it all together again. There is a minor fitment issue with the rear drivers side tire. For some reason it is no longer centered front to back on the flare. I'm note sure if they put the flare on weird, or if maybe my subframe shifted... It does have adjustable camber and caster. Would that effect it?

The two kids got to spend a little time together.

 

 

I also delivered a car full of new and used parts to Aleks. He's going to get working on everything this week. I'm sure it will be a couple weeks before I see any real progress. He's doing most of the work himself.
