I'll be DAMD this kit looks good. 8) :D :D :D

I recently finished installing the Imperial DAMD (yes it's the real deal 8) ) kit and I am excited to report that this was by far the best designed kit I have installed on any car...

It's ABS so it gives to road rash ( yeah already have a war wound) it covers existing front and rear lips so it looks and feels like OEM side skirts have SS bracing and NO triming, NO modding, NO special tools!!!

Now the only things I am waiting on is VIP camber plates from VAN of OTG, and the Work Seeker cX wheels I ordered months ago :cry:

Oh yeah I have all the DAMD badges and the Imperial letters for the rear hatch... post more pics after it gets buffed out. :wink:

Damn Dave! .. i mean DAMD Dave...

that is sick looking... ur ride is getting better everyday. U gotta help me install my wheel well lighting kit...

Very nice Dave... very nice.

looks great... but if you dont mind me asking how much and where did you pick it up???????

I have a contact that says he can get more of these kits, only issues to keep the cost around $1,500 - $1,600 he would need to purchase 10 or more kits at a time to save on shipping and payment for all 10 would be needed before ordering.

I was looking for the other Full Imperial kit ($3k) and he made me a deal on this one he had in stock (last one) I guess right place right time and glad I got this one the other was fiberglass...

Son of a biscuit eater!!! Damn Dave, that is the ISH! That is the hotness right durrr!! Go on Dave, "When the bodykits looks good, Pop it like its HOT!"


Victor

Thanks everyone for all the positive posts, its better than any Car Show Trophy could ever be!

I want to give a BIG SHOUT OUT!!! to CABE Performance Mike, Wes, Roger and all the rest of the crew for helping me out in such short notice. Thank you very much...

I will get some better shots and some close up shots to show the nice details of this kit and the OEM appearance...

I got some more surprises in store for 2005, lets just say I am gunning for a three peat and going to lockdown that 3rd place Niesei trophy! So back off!!! :twisted: :lol: :lol: :lol:

like justin says, " I'm loving it!"

I'm not parking next to Dave!

Dave, the true VIPper!!!! Nice kit. I hope the Seeker rims you get are with the staggered offset and with the stretch look.

That kit looks sooooo good. I see the moon hubcaps are off as well. :D

man that kit is wayyyyyy nice. how much was that grill? thats hot as ____. NICE man.

Dave, the true VIPper!!!! Nice kit. I hope the Seeker rims you get are with the staggered offset and with the stretch look.

I ordered 18x8.5 with 20mm offset for the rear, and 18x8 with 25mm offset for the front. I want to go "super stretch" but haven't really decided on a tire combo yet... got any recomendations?

That kit looks sooooo good. I see the moon hubcaps are off as well. :D

I had to take the steelies off it was to low :wink:

Just want to thank Denny from Crossfire for the use of his Motoforge wheels and for all the help he has been giving me over the last year. This guy is so cool he is letting me do some shots with his very limited release of the Roja wheels he is rockin on his box now, can't wait to see how that is going to look 8) I'll post pics soon after :shock:

man that kit is wayyyyyy nice. how much was that grill? thats hot as ____. NICE man.

It came with the Kit... I am tryin to get the JDM HID lights and eyelids as well as the three piece bonnet spoiler then the front will be complete.

doesn't that kind of take away some of the airflow into the engine, with the solid grille? Anyways, looks very nice :)

Sprockett...You know the top grill ain't got no function on the XB, yo. :) Blankin it out looks hot!

Imperial.. that's funny, cause it kind of reminds me f darth vader's helmet. More like Dark Helmet's helmet. ;-)

Looks good. nice work.

205/40/18 for the 8s

but since you threw 8.5 in the mix, may I suggest 215/40/18

Yeah I was thinkin along the same line as your recommendation and since I will be runnin neg camber on the rear I'll be changing out tires anyway huh :wink: Thanks now to pick a tire that has that fitment...

I been using Denny's wheels and I gots to say I like the Nitto neo gen quite not like the Parada's put anyone got any input on Dunlop or P zero's?

Heck I might just try and do some camber plates on my HKS coilovers and go balls out it's only rubber anyway. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Dave, very nice ride Man, Aboud the tire wear with negetive camber, its not that bad I used to have 5 degree and that was a big hit on my 16 but I got a 3 degree camber and now both my 16 and 18 are fine and I have almost 6k on my tires and they still look good, get the tires that you are more comfortable with and you know they will fit witout any kind of rubbing, you might have problems with 40 series but I'm not sure, I'm running 215/35-18 on my 9" and very happy with result, Take care Sean

Oh Dave...The Neo Gens where designed for neg. camber...

Thanks for the info... Were did you get your camber kit from?

My friend lives there so I get my stuff through him, Sean
By the way, did you order chrome or machined silver on your rims ?

Sean, I need some camber plates also. Every time I think I have a pair, I can't get them. Maybe I could bring down a set for Dave also.

I was talking to Van the other day and he is in the process, but I can surely get them if you guys want them, they are about $180 plus shipping, And also the other thing I would not run the cambr just for the look, I like them myself but if I had another option, I would not run them.
Dave, with your 8.5 +20 you should be just fine without any problem. so I would put the wheels on before you buy the cambers kit.
Brad, you got new rims ??
Sean

Not yet anyway. I've always wanted at least 2-3 degrees of camber for the handling aspect of things. These are for the front right? If so, let me know where to send the money. And hopefully Van has worked everything out for the rears.

I'll take some pics of Dave's xB friday night and this weekend.

Hey Brad the camber plates are for the rear that I am talking about, you can get the camber pillow mounts from Cusco and Buddyclub I think...

Thanks Sean for the info how long would it take to get them ido need them?

Not more than two - three weeks. its the mail process which is slow, Take care Sean

Yeah, I want the Cuscos or like brand up front and Van's for the rear. I want no more than 2 or 3 degrees all the way around. Everytime I think I have a set of Cuscos, it falls thru the cracks.

DAMD it your box lQQks hot...need some Chrome wheels homie...

PEOPLE...the use of the word DAMD is no longer cool...you've officially played it out.

Very nice Dave...do you like the grill? It's too much red with he rest of the car for my taste.

Can I interest you in some FI to seal the deal at shows?

Thanks Joe but Damd no X-Mas spirit seems like most of your post lately are angry... whats with the sig "Mod this and die you POS...you should be so lucky to grace yourself upon one of my posts. showpaojoe is too good for any of you wannabes"

:lol: :lol: :lol: I kid, I kid

Do you need a hug :shock: J/K :lol: :lol: :lol:

I like the grille for now, I still have the chrome one but you know me If I likes it, I buys it!!!

As far as shows go Joe :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm no trophy whore, the compliments people give me are worth more than a plastic dust catcher :lol: :lol: :lol:

I just want the 3rd place trophy for the Neisei week show just to stay consistent, but hey I will take what I can get and give props to those that get what I can’t

Happy Holidays Joe

Damn...people are always saying I post angry ____ now-a-days...why do you think I am no longer a mod...I was tired of holding back...JK.

I don't like the other grille either. That is the only color I have seen were that kit stands out...looks bad ___...and what's even better is that if you got the full kit with door inserts and what not...there's no way it would have come out as clean as that.

But what do I know, I'm just ____ed off at the world...no, just a large group of it.

oh yeah...those smilies are starting to ____ me off.
