    *thread redo* Please graduate FFR7593

    It's been a long 5 years but I'd like to ask for you to graduate FFR7593. It started out as a base kit but quickly turned into a complete kit/custom build. I'd like to thank everybody on the board for their tips and help along the way. This forum truly was a huge factor in completing this car.

    Basic info-
    Factory Five MK4
    306 SBF/T5 5spd
    Adjustable control arms w/Koni Coilovers
    3 Link rear, with 8.8
    4 wheel disc brakes
    15" FFR wheels with Goodyear Billboards
    18 gallon Alluminum fuel cell

    You can click on a pic and it'll go to my build album on Photobucket
    (I'm missing a right front spinner in pics, new center cap is in the mail now)

    She looks great! I really like the color, and it turned out awesome.

    The tires and side pipes look great, and the blacked out look really works with that color too!

    Congratulations on finishing her up, and building a beautiful car!

    Regards,

    Steve

    Ain't nothing that looks better than 15" Goodyear Billboards.

    What brakes are you using?

    Thanks, for brakes I'm running just manual brakes, willwood pedal box and cylinder, mustang front calipers with stainless cross drilled and slotted rotors. The rear is the sn95 5 lug kit from northern race cars, with stainless cross drilled and slotted rotors.

    Looks very sharp. The darkened wheels and billboard tires make it.

    First off, great looking car and the entire color scheme works very well. I might have missed it somewhere, but what is it that you have wrapped around the exhaust pipes? Does it function like a heat shield/disburser to lessen the melting of skin if touched or does it serve another purpose?

    Yes sir it is header wrap, it helps with the heat. I can say if it works or not as I still avoid the area haha.
