Sneak peek: Project Pepper

Here's the latest project I'm working on. Just a sneek peek to let you guys know what's happening. This is the craziest brake setup ever to be put on a ACVW.

Just a reality check before the 'haters' get verbal; No car NEEDS this setup. You want it, I know I do, but you don't need it. Here's are the highlights:

Performance: Retina detaching
Looks: Killer
Sex-Apeal: Infinite
Fade: Impossible to fade these. I'll rephrase, improbable
Overkill: Definately
Price: If you have to ask, you can't afford


These are gonna be on a T1 that'll be terrorizing the street of Utah soon. I don't know how I'm gonna trump this setup.

While I'm blabbing, I'd like to sincerly thank all you guys. Without your support, I wouldn't be providing these products/services. You guys keep VdubCustoms in action. It's customers that motivate me to push the design/manufacturing envelope. Thank you. It's not a cliche, I'm talking the "look-you-in-the-eyes-with-a-firm-handshake-and-say-thank-you" type of thank you.


Easy,
Lanner

Holy crap! I would need to upgrade my seatbelts first. Twelve and half inches? That's amazing!

What I wouldn't give for 12½ inches...

(I didn't think there were haters at this site. Must've missed them.)

I might have overstated my case with the 'haters' comment. I just wanted to pre-empt any overkill comments. I know it's overkill. There is no way anyones ACVW would warrent such a setup. If you car really NEEDS these brakes, I'll buy myself a 'man-diaper' and you can take me for a thrill ride.

Everyone is cool here, you guys are alright.

A tech question: how do you insert the image in the text without having to open it as an attachment? I've tried messing around with it, but without much success. Technology and I have an abrasive relationship.

you need to host the pics somewhere (like on your site), put the cursor where you want the pic in your post, click on the image icon above the text entry area and input the URL of where the pic is hosted.

Normal money? Hubs and brackets $C700. Add your own calipers and rotors. The pics are a little deceiving (parallex error), the rotors are 350x34.
