I have a friend in college majoring in photography, I got her to come out and snap some photos of my cappo and I thought i'd share, as I receive more ill post them here.
Click on the thumbnail to view and then click again to view full size for best picture
This one has a filter applied to it, so it looks really grainy but once printed will be more crisp.

I remeber someone asking for a picture of a chrome cappuccino before. ( think it was half-9) but i cant seem to find the thread. As i used your pictures as a base thought this would be most relevant thread to post this in. Sorry if any hijacking occurs
Chrome cappaccino with Matte black Watanabe's:
While doing this, i noticed you had different rims back/front! Fronts, Watanabe f8, 15x6.5"+14.5? Rears, Watanabe Type A??? Didnt know any type A's or R's had such high offsets!
Whatever they are, Nice work dude! Looks awesome! |

Thanks all for the kind words, i'll pass appreciation onto my friend who snapped the photos.
From what I've been told from previous owner the front and rear fenders are after market, they are missing one of the 2 side vents. It almost looks as if they were just rolled but I don't think you can roll plastic.
Exhuast is Fairfax motorsports dual middle, purchased from cappuccino sport when they were still operating.
Wheel specs: Front: RS Watanabe type B 14x6.5 Rear: RS Watanabe type A 14x7 I wish they were 15's would have filled up some of the wheel/fender gap better.

This is indeed one of the nicest Cappuccino's I have seen, the wheel/tire/fenders are beautiful. At the rear my fenders rust, so that surely is steel and no problem to modify. The front fenders are also definitely steel. What is a problem though is to blend this all in with the existing plastic panels of the bumpers and the front lower valances. I don't think you can roll plastic but maybe you can heat it up and try to modify it slightly. Anyway, the guy who modified it did a great job, love it. |

Yes it is embarrassingly, that was the first week I had the car I took it to the track. Lucky for my the water barriers where empty and they didn't even leave a scratch. I have since refrained from drifting my car haha. |

Looks so great! We need to get together for that ABC meet-up sometime soon! I was just in Calgary last week - we could easily get together somewhere halfway... |
