Hello, new member here.

I recently traded in my 1st gen xB for a blizzard pearl xD.

I hope to have it bagged and stanced by spring so hopefully this will become a build thread soon

Yeah, I really havent seen many.

Im working on piecing together an air setup now. I learned a lot from the air ride I had on my xB so I know what I want this time. (Speaking of which, if anyone is looking for a set of used coilovers I have a set of tein basics I will not be using. I was planning on bagging them but I cant fit aerosport bags over the diameter of the teins).

Just for fun, here was the stance on my old xB.

I am going with a different style than most xD guys go with.

With the pearl white I am going to try a sport luxury look.

Just got my wheels. Holstens (Audi a8 style wheels) that were fully stripped and polished. I have never had a set of fully polished wheels before. Hopefully the upkeep doesnt drive me insane.





Going to do a little more work to them before they go on though. I want to paint the windows black and tweak a couple more things.

Thanks guys.

Yeah, I might actually run static this season now. The ride quality of the tein basics is so nice. I might remove the remaining perches though. The air instal on my xB took me all winter and I don't want to rush this one.

The wheels aren't super aggressive, but I will space them out accordingly. They are 18x8 +30 (I think) with 205/40s on them.

I am debating wheter or not to also paint the out part of the centercaps black. It will make them look a little more sporty.

since you have the 5axis idk what kind of clearances you have for moar low. i know i couldnt do a lip without killing it now lol, and ive removed about everything to get as low as i can on my c8sports.

hope the 18's let you at least run flush. as for painting the centers black im on the fence too. i mean my rs' center caps are black so i know itll look good. i think keeping it all polished will make it cleaner though. the window black was a good call.

Yeah they actually arent fully polsihed though. I am just tricking your eyes because the centercaps are plastic and they are currently painted silver.

Yeah, the good thing about a urethane lip is I can scrape without breaking it

ah ok so like mine. the faces are silver, lips and caps are polished save for the BBS logo's.

instead of lip i opted for smaller wheels so i could just ruin my frame on speedbumps lol.
