Now if we could only roll around town boosting 34 psi DAILY without a worry....

Nice numbers though.

Default Re: DB Squad.....for the Teggers with 2 extra doors

What's up guys?! Been following this thread for a couple years now but finally picked up a DB of my own few months ago. Haven't been able to do much with all this cold and snow, but plan on doing more as it warms up.

First, I DEFINITELY HAD TO replace the ebay coilover sleeves and blown struts with Koni Reds and Eibach springs. Rides a ton better and I like how it sits, just the occasional scrape here and there. Put some HIDs in. I snowboard a lot so got a nice deal on a roof rack. After I took the pics I also took all the decals and emblems off. Threw some steelies on with snow tires for the winter. Should be picking up some wheels real soon. Typical I/H/E setup. AEM short ram intake, dc headers, greddy exhaust (but ISO apexi ws2 or itr muffler or axleback if anyone has or knows of one for sale).

I hope to clean up the body a lot more once the temps are friendly. Front end def needs work (don't ask why there are sidemarkers cut so low.. i have no idea!!) and the QP honda rust. And the previous owner had 98-01 corners on the 94-97 bumper so in the first 3 pics you see them sitting weird, but I got some amber corners to replace them. Hopefully get her looking sexy soon!

Welcome! Interested in the final look. Sounds like you also have a good idea to correct the "imperfections" Take your time, research. Keep it simple and clean . Most importantly, safe.

I might take on designing the decals. How many are interested will also factor in the cost of these.

Did you read my mind or something haha! Why not have it in a store to be easier to be purchased when needed



heres a quick font I found. The idea is to keep it minimal and not cheesy. I would add a cutout of the word "squad" in the bottom of the "B" (possible cursive font) either straight across or at a slant of the bottom right. Another thing I would add is a background color i.e. black font, chrome border that would also highlight the word squad. LMk what everyones thoughts are by Monday would be best so I can talk to the sign guy.

Font is fine and agree with minimal (less is more...) IMO it should b both caps or both lower case... Waiting to see it with the "squad" added

If so, please share.

I picked myself up a set of the classic Rota Slips lol. 16x7 for me though. Gonna ride on them for a bit, then swoop up my buddies set of TE37's. Then I'll be in the legit wheel crew.

What size tire are you running on those 388's, Weak?

Nice pickup weaksoN. Did you pick these up in the IE? Saw a set on CL for sale recently. 15x6.5 +45 spec?

Good observation. Tire size didn't cross my mind.

Needs more low! Lol. Why you go with 195/50 instead of 195/55?

Probably came mounted on the wheel already...

But for a 15" wheel, I wouldn't get anything smaller than a 205/50/15.

195/55/15 doesn't look great on an aftermarket wheel, especially 388's. Not to mention, you get more performance out of a 205/50.

If you really want some meat on your wheels, 225/45/15 looks pretty tough on the right wheel.
