Re: The Red Beast

Make sure your not going 150 this time


Intake sounds awesome

I did a pass through there today (my buddy tried to record on his S4... It sounds like wind!) and there was a white E46 M3 that must have been doing 200+. I was mid tunnel and he passed me like I was standing still, banging gears.

OEM peelers are back from powdercoating... Will get a picture soon. They are midnight black now.

Re: The Red Beast

Those are really nice. How much for the powder coating?

Red and black will look very good for the winter.

135/wheel.

I'm contemplating plasti dipping the center caps red, since they are still silver.

Re: The Red Beast

Was the OEM finish wrecked at all on your wheels? Or why choose to powdercoat them?
Black is terrible in the winter, terrible, it never looks clean. I would never run anything near black again in the winters just for that reason. A grey/charcoal hides dirt the easiest. But i still prefer the OEM finish

Just didn't like the silver, looked to bland to me.

I like black quite a bit, even if I have to clean it often.

Re: The Red Beast

Looks like a good job, but can't stand black wheels haha. Even more bland if you ask me, no contrast there anymore. Rim just disappears with the sidewall.

I found that the OEM silver stuck out in a really weird way. I like to keep the colour pallet of my cars minimal, so with my summers I have red, black, silver trim, and gold rims with polished lips that match the trim and grille. In winter I'll have red, black, and silver trim, no offsetting silver that doesn't match the trim. I wouldn't like black meshes though... But the triple 5 pattern at least can be nicely contrasted by the rotors, and the subtle red text on the callipers.

If I get bored some time before winter I might plasti-dip the center spoke of each triple red, I'm thinking that would look really cool.

Really really loving this Roc-Euro intake! I've never heard a supercharger before until now, they are quite cool. Definitely a big change from hearing turbos. I get weird looks sometimes though, people probably think my car is borked
