ChrisJulianos build thread- Winslow!:D

[ChrisJuliano]

Okay, so after owning my car for like 10 months I decided I need to do a build thread...

So heres the story, sold my mk4 jetta and after seeing TIGS car I was like damn I need to get a miata, but all my friends said "rwd in snow is horrible" and my driveway is absolutely horrible and dosnt get plowed (its 1/3rd of a mile long) so I figured buying a miata was not going to happen, so looked into a EG hatch and after searching every single hatch within a 15 hour drive I decided to creep on craigslist for a miata, and my one miata buddy found what is known as today as winslow My one friend named it!

So ad stated it was a 65k miata, 1990 for $4200 or something, called the guy up and said I will come get it tomorrow if I like what I see. The car had a HORRIBLE center exhaust that looked like a butt hole and it got hit from behind slightly and had a broken rear light and a bumper with some spider cracks in it, but it was FLAWLESS. The old guy needed it gone cuz his wife couldnt get in and out of it anymore. SCORE. I will take it

*** I AM GOING TO ADD PICS SOON I GOTTA TRANSFER THEM ALL TO THIS LAPTOP SO ITS GOING TO BE EDITED IT WITHIN A FEW HOURS***

Here are a few pics from when I first got it, my first good clean and photoshoot of it! Haahha those wheels and exhaust


Hahaha this exhaust was so funny




Clean interior is clean




Got my tow hook on and rear finish panel painted! Seats are in! Had a random set of wheels on here at this point and in this pic had the spare tire on the back passenger side.



Heres the first MIATA meet I have ever went too!! Met taco (522 xxr miata) earlier so hes only one I knew, but blu92 and griffindork are the other 2 smurfs and this was the start of my miata friends! Later these guys became very good friends of mine and I see them very often!



Ebay strut bar and wrinkle red valve cover with new plugs and wires!



Got my first set of wheels!
4X4 status!


Loved these wheels!


Did a shoot in pitt! With my new exhaust, I photoshopped out the hole from previous exhaust



Got my lip and tinted out my turn signals!


Then I got coils and TSI's! Soon got some spacers and lots more things and didnt take many pics of my car since then (used my phone mainly) and I cannot access facebook from this laptop to post em up. Did a few track days aswell after this.

Heres me and our crew at MATG!!! my first year LOVED IT.


My friend griffindork took this of me rolling down to MATG.



Last few weeks I rolled around with my 6uls, winter was coming:[


First week with my new winter wheels:[ WAH.


My 2 local friends s2000s, both just recently lowered and havnt got wheels yet, red one was traded for a brand new wrx sti off the lot, and the white one recently got hit from the side its very fixable but just hasnt got fixed yet



got my cf headlight cover got it for cheap from kouki so figured what the hell even though its really random


heres the first part of my driveway, the best part its so nice compared to the rest 1/3rd of a mile, i was stopping and getting mail so figured I would take a pic


got tophats!


first snow!! was so fun






AND thats all for my old pics and bring you guys up untill recent. My car has some new stuff on it that isnt in pics but I havnt done a shoot yet so will update it when I get new things or take new pics:]

[Caoboy]

This is my first time seeing your car. Clean!

[ChrisJuliano]

I honestly never post pics of it ever haha besides on facebook. I havnt got it to the stage where I want to post pics around, to me it dosnt really follow a theme at all its just a shit ton of randomness. But its getting there.

I have gotten a new wheel, harnesses, mirrors, tow hooks, ebrake handle this week so I havnt taken any pics with those yet but might tomorrow

[morr]

Good stuff so far! Can't wait to see the new steering wheel and all the other goodies

[ChrisJuliano]

I was going to go out and take pics as the sun was going down 30 minutes ago BUT you guys made me miss it

[CeeJaayDM]

cool thread chris

[I<3flippyheadlights]

You will also be getting some new wheels soon

Shipping tomorrow DDD

[concealer404]

I gotta be honest... i didn't hate the center exit exhaust. Would have been awesome if it spit some flames.

[ChrisJuliano]

cool thread chris

Thanks!

And awesome flippy I am excited, its going to annoy me to have to wait the whole winter before I put them on:[


Hahah the center exhaust didnt shoot flames

[KAL]

Love the lights, do you have a link to them?

[ChrisJuliano]

Headlights?

[adamvanxxx]

Whatever the headlights pictured are gross. He is rocking E-codes now, about that bumper you need to do a cut out to get rid of the unwanted cut out.

[ChrisJuliano]

I want my rear lip:] I thought about doing cut out before i got the rear lip but I wasnt low enough to pull off a cutout bumper.

Since those pics ive went lower, not much but a little amount. I wanted to be mod slammed.

And those headlights if you want them are forsale, for cheap, I now have e-codes but those havnt came yet.

[adamvanxxx]

Psssh I am 4x4 and have a cutout.
