[Sunkist]

ARX = few mods = less $ to pay and you have an axis wannabe car which is my goal lol

AXIS = paying top $$ ill save up for Pm35 :-)

[Jetwreck]

looking f**king mean

+1

Don't forget there real name either....."Rub Guard's" for those times when you have to run a stupid f#$ker off the road but don't want to scratch you paint!!!

[scotty nm35]

[zei20l]

[joshm35]

On an ARX?

I think you are confused.

On an ARX those flares look as good as they do on this

Ooh yeah, real mean.

[iamhe77]

this is the reason why I bought an ARX - when I get the $$$ i will get an axis front bar and rear skirt

If you aren't going with the FRP kit, you may be quite surprised when you find out how much Nissan charge for the bonnet ornament (and it's backing)

haha, but I am not the one that thinks or is trying to persuade others that their car "looks mean", am I?

Funny thing is that even if you colour-code the flares, you still have to deal with the gay old man, tan leather that is inside the ARX.

Unfortunate, but true... ARX = ugly inside and out

[Sunkist]

i like the tan leather.

good contrast to the black car.

i call it mid life crisis colour..

and you cant talk about gay colours. your is like coming out of the closet lol

i got skype!

Sounds like venting on C34's has taken a turn onto ARX vs RS/X !!!

I think ARX plastic fantastic look odd. The Mrs agrees "plastic wings..." she reckons.

They peel off at high speed, they make your rims look gay cause of offset fail, and attract people to bump into them.

the tan interior brightens up and otherwise dull black interior.

thats the reason why i kept the beige leather in the black interior!

FlAir= needs more aggressive offset. Doing this right = win. Doing it wrong= car wil look like a spaceship

Has anyone got pics of an ARX with guards bumper, skirts etc colour coded? I was thinking of doing this at some stage but didn't know if you would have to put some sort of primer on first to smooth out the "texture" and whether it looks OK or not.

Also what offset is aggressive? I am looking at some wheels (down the track) 20x8, they come in +30 or +45.

AND by the way. the tan leather of the ARX is the best part!!!! It's why I went for an ARX....... then again, I am old (not in my 20's anymore)

Rudy, (can't remember his forum name) colour coded the body moulds on his silver ARX, saw it when we were at Eastern Creek Drags a while back; works quite well, but his flares were not shiny because of the textured surface of the plastic. You'd need to do a fair bit of Hi-Filling to smooth the surface to give an nice gloss.

As for offset on an 8" rim, you want +30 offset at absolute minimum. You could go +25, even +20 offset on an 8" rim with a 245 wide tyre, without any clearance issues or guard rolling.

I think it's really dependent on colour; Black would work fine, White; a bit like a fridge. Silver looked ok, but I've seen a gold one, and I'd rather poke out my eyes than have to look at it again; bloody atrocious! Also as others have said, you'd have to butcher the bodywork underneath the plasitc so you can get the wheels out far enough to fill the guards properly.

Lol....nothing wrong with my offsets NA boy!!!!.... Fill the guards quite well actually.... My offset would however look shit if I didn't have the rub guards.....lol!

And what's all this ar-x jealousy from the guys that own poverty packs all of a sudden!
