Wheels are shipping Monday

They are matte polished red and pics don't quite do them justice.

I would take them off your hands if you were so kind. I have a project thread going on RL too. Saving an 2006 C2S. I need the whole radiator pods for both sides. So condensors for me, I don't mind straightening them out by hand if you want to part with them. I'll even pay for shipping

Came over from the M3 forums .. someone mentioned about Creaminz selling his car to an unsuspecting buyer so I decided to take a look at what people were talking about. I'm a big Porsche fan as well so I decided to register an account on RL.

Sorry to see you have to go through all of this but things are starting to look great! Love the new color. Glad to see the car is given a second chance. I'm subscribing to follow your progress. Good luck with the build!

Hey guys, thanks for being so patient! This build has taken much longer due to the fact of coming in after someone that a terrible job. I literally just had to buy a new rear knuckle because they guys stripped out the bolts for the caliper. SMH, so yes I have been ordering parts and correcting things as they come up. I was thinking about starting to us the hashtag #notcreaminz every time I post a pic on Instagram lol. There are still several small interior pieces that I am tracking down as the previous "custom" builder broke every single tab and just had things laying in there. I could go on forever and post so many pics that would make you cringe, but there is no point now. Creaminz has already blocked me on Instagram and LT Motorworks owner doesn't respond to my text. So no point in focusing on that anymore. Here are some pics from the past few weeks. I am working on getting the car buttoned up and then it will go back to my painter for full wet sand and buff. Then my vinyl decals will be put on.

So... that transformation is incredible!!!
Much better IMO.

Save your money and return that knuckle. Just TimeSert the existing knuckle.

Odds are you'll strip the threads on the new one anyway if you remove the calipers even a few times.

Here is some more reading on the subject.

Great ride and can't wait to see more.

i'm getting those cup car caliper studs installed on my car now. SP Motorsports suggested doing it as part of the rotor replacement they're doing for me and after i read some of the same threads nwGTS linked to, it seemed like the right choice.

your car is definitely making a miraculous transformation and i definitely like the #notcreaminz idea.
