Do you want to make your new stock car a project car, but don’t have the money to do a complete remodel? The best way to make your car look fitted is a new set of kicks. This customer obviously appreciates the look of a good aftermarket upgrade. He chose to fit his car with a set of Advan RSII’s.  The fitment of 17 x 8 and 17 x 10 looks killer and is exactly what the driver was going for. You can tell in a world full of stock cars, this NSX is bound to break the mold. Check out more Advan fitments here. Tell us what you think about this NSX on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram @vividracing.

Sultry Red Recaro"s Attract Attention

Last week we wrote a blog about the new Recaro seats that became available. Apparently word spreads fast. Our sales guy Ahmed (ahmed@vividracing.com – ext:231) just sent us these pictures of a customer’s, exceptional Recaro creation. He went with the Recaro Sportster CS. The Sportster is the more luxurious sport seat, compared to the Recaro Profi or Pro Racer editions. You still feel like you’re in a race seat because of the quality of material and shape of the seat. The functionality will make it more useful for daily, and long distance use. Some of the features you can look forward to in your set of Sportster CS are manual seat back adjustment, strongly contoured shoulder support and electric heating.

This customer decided to switch-up the regular look of CS to fit his own style. He wanted a more pronounced statement for his interior. The Imola Red is the perfect choice to make your Sporster seats standout beyond the standard black leather look. Although the seat shape already gains some attention the Imola Red subconsciously demands attention where ever it goes.  The contrast of the white car to the sultry red on the interior makes this car a eye catching statement car.

Ferrari makes Fierce Look Sexy

When daydreaming at work of what your Ferrari would look like, you’re more than likely thinking of either a sexy cherry red or a fierce gunmetal gray. This customer makes all daydreams come true. His Ferrari is the perfect combination of fierce and sexy. He has the aggresive looking outside that demands dominance and the red interior add that sexy red that all Ferrari’s need. The Ferrari F430 was designed to perform under the most intricate of situations. With the ability to put out 490 hp, they needed to adjust some of the other features to balance out the power. They made carbon-ceramic discs standard in all F430 so you have a yin and yang effect when stopping and starting. Ferrari’s inspiration when designing the F430 is to give the non-race car drivers the feel of a Formula 1 car, while sitting in world class luxury interior.

This customer drives his car with pride. He loves his Ferrari enough to do what most Ferrari experts know to be true. If you’re going to have a top of the line car, you need top of the line parts. This customer upgraded with a Fabspeed Valvtronic Exhaust tip, Fabspeed Header and Fabspeed carbon fiber intake covers. If you want to daydream more here are some of our other Ferrari F430 parts.

Porsche 997 Turbo Cab Carboned Out AA Style

We have featured this 2013 Porsche 997 Turbo before on our blog, however it needs an update as it just got some more carbon fiber mods from Agency Power.  Already having the Agency Power GT2 Style rear add-on spoiler, the car was furthered enhanced with the Agency Power strake diffuser.  As an OEM replacement part, the rear diffuser is a simple installation and adds a much more aggressive look to the rear end.  Complimented with an Akrapovic titanium exhaust and carbon exhaust tip surrounds, the black Turbo coupe enhanced the front end with a Agency Power carbon fiber type 2 front lip.  The front lip replaces the factory plastic part and snaps into place snugly on the front bumper.  With a little more rake, the front is now balanced out with the additional rear add-ons.  Check out more Porsche customer photos here and view all our Porsche Turbo Upgrades here.

Vorsteiner Completes this BMW"s Look

When BMW created the M3 series they had tuners in mind. Although they upgraded the handling, suspension and braking capabilities, there are still limits the stock BMW M3 E46 is confined to. The aftermarket compatibility of this car, begs for upgrades.Due to the popularity of the model, car enthusiasts are looking to the aftermarket industry to individualize the performance and look of the car. Vorsteiner is a company that has been pioneering the carbon fiber and aero kit market for sometime. That’s why when our customer came to our sales person Ahmed (Ahemed@vividracing.com – ext:231) for a body kit, they went with Vorsteiner products.

Vorsteiner has ways to make small adjustments to the look of your vehicle. But if you’re looking for a full blown aesthetic make-over, Vorsteiner’s got you too. Our customer chose to build his own body kit with individual upgrades. He installed the Vorsteiner V-SL Trunk Lid, Vorsteiner V-SL Rear Diffuser, and the Vorsteiner V-SL Front Bumper Package. Here is what the finished product.
