what do you think

 

[poniesviii]

I like em alot.


The offset is AWESOME! I was hoping you'd get a better set of wheels on that car after all your work! Good job..!

Do you have a front end shot of your car?And how you did that -looks awsome.

 

[lincolnboy]

not mine. just saw the pic over on the other www.markviii. site. today it belong to blue_t. i just look up those wheels and they have more and they look dam good w/ a fat lip too but at a fair price. bout 240 a pc.

Good for at least 20Hp per wheel. Also, they are gaudy, IMHO.

I looked at your username afterwards, and knew it wasn't right.

If the car was manufactured today I think that's closer to how it would be done. Even Saleens get 20's, nothing wrong with modernizing an old car.

Where do I get the hood?

Where do I get the hood?

The guy (blue_t) made his own, he tried creating a mold in his spare time but was unsuccessful in his quick attempt. He might have one made by now, you can find him on the

www dot markviii dot org

board.

I love the look of it, rims go well with that front air dam and hood. Rims must have a nice lip to them IMO. I give it a pair of thumbs up!

 

[chicken]

love them
thats the member (over there) that moulded a pont grand am air dam on to the front, ive read alot on that car, and tried to duplicate the front end but all i could find was a grand prix and it would have to be hacked then totally reformed, the rims are a new touch since ive seen it last but i think it compliments the over all look of the car

I think they look sharp with that car. I'ts a little low for my taste, but I'm diggin the hood and the front bumper cover.

 

[Jeffguy11]

that looks awesome... ive got a black 98lsc and i wish they came with a lower front bumper with fogs from the factory

 

[95sc]

That how they should came from factory.This front end and the hood make a big difference in look of the car.

Wow! The wheels look great!! Who did the drop on the car?

 

[Doc]

What other mark site?

 

[turborich]

The rims, hood, and bumper cover all look great in my oppinion. Very nice!!!

 

[formerknown]

They'd be awesome without the rivet look...

They'd be awesome without the rivet look...

They're probably three piece wheels. But, maybe not. They're available in different widths/ heights but the price screams 1 piece all over it.

Can someone do me a favor and ask him what his overall wheel/tire dia is in the rear?

I'd appreciate it. I try to stay out of Calvins house.

 

[Dern Humpus]

OMG that bumper looks great too!

 

[torquemonkey]

Holy Sh!t !! Looks really nice. Overall a damn fine job. Those wheels set off the whole package just right

 

[MediumD]

IMO 2" smaller and they'd look great. The car should come up about 1.5" too. I like the air dam but it kind of clashes with the bulbous gen 2 nose.

 

[LORENZOCHICAGOLSC]

Looks like FOOSE built that Mark! I'm still waiting to see a Mark VIII on Overhaulin', That would be something!!

 

[Jibit]

not bad, but what do you think of these rims! http://www.forgiato.com/radurra/index.htm

Wheels look kickass but the hood should taper more and follow the lines better, it looks like a strip just laid down straight.

Not too sound like a a$$ but your hood looks like a strip laid down also....
