Well, I finally shipped the ACR to Prefix (last week) for them to get started on some work. Having them repaint the front bumper due to some small issues and they will also be painting an OEM drivers stripe in VBB on the car as well. The end result should be a blue version of the limited SSG cars. I'm excited. Here's a pic just before it left...sorry for the poor quality.

Love that color car! Makes me miss my aero coupe because of the VBB color. Should be sweet when all said and done.

So how does Prefix do it? Lets say you wanted a new paint job on your car. Do they remove every panel, hang it and spray it?

They can and will do anything you want. We discussed whether or not to bury the stripe with no ridge or do it like OEM with a small ridge. They also have jigs for all the color patterns and stripe patterns for all the cars so you are guaranteed OEM placement and alignment.

Sorry to change the subject but I am in the market for a trailer. What brand trailer is that. I like that it is low profile.

I cant tell you what brand that trailer is but if you are looking for a high quality trailer, check out ATC. These guys can put it together anyway you want it. You give them the dimensions of your car and they will make sure it fits in there as intended (escape doors, length of ramp etc)

Be careful if you download their 'build software'. They have so many cool options that its easy to get a bit crazy with it.

Are those pics from an iPhone?

PS. Someone stole one of your fenders and front bumper. ;-)

Yep right off the iPhone but they are straight in the phone. Both fenders have the tabs snapped off of them where they bolt to the facia. The facia and the splitter are all busted up from a spin out. All cosmetic no structure

Did you get that car from a guy in Tennessee? If so, hit me up if you have any questions, cause I bought that car new.

The iPhone camera is slightly weird in that the rotation of the image is not honoured frequently by other programs. An image sensor encodes an image (let's say left to right and top to bottom) but the orientation of the iPhone can be arbitrary (depending on how you're holding the phone). The image is recorded along with the orientation, so when it is displayed on the iPhone it is the correct orientation.

For whatever reason many browsers/image viewers muck up the iPhone's reported orientation and shows a rotated or upside down image.

Your ACR generates so much downforce...it can drive on ceilings and walls. :):anonymous:

Thanks. I called them yesterday to follow up. I really wanted to take it up there myself like you did and actually see the place but the weather here just didn't allow it.

You will never be disappointed with having PREFIX do ANYTHING on your car. They sponsored us last year for the One Lap of America. Without saying anything about pricing or who paid for what, they completely disassembled my bright blue 08 car and did a complete color change to what you see in my avatar. The paint job is absolutely flawless. You can not find any bright blue on the car anywhere. If you have never been to the plant where they paint all our new cars it is a must see operation, you will be SO IMPRESSED with their workand their workmanship

So I guess this was Wayne's old car then? I just sent him a message late last week seeing if he was still wanting to sell...damn good looking car if so.

Hey all i just found out about this new forum last night. Dang im slow lol. So are you getting a vbb drivers stripe done on her Ron? Will def look good but imo wont stand out near as much as the red :(. What made you anti red? I wish i was so busy so i could keep up with the viper world a little more. Ive bought a couple more 08's lately so ill find time to join in the fun soon

IndyRon

Hey Wayne. Glad to see you drop by. I went back and forth on the drivers stripe and think that the blue was the way to go. The red did stand out more, but I felt the ACR didn't need that. I think the blue is going to look good without it being over the top. The front fascia needed redone also as the black band was done too wide compared to OEM, so that is getting fixed also. That's just cosmetics though. I have the 1st set of BBG 1 7/8" longtubes going on the car here soon along with pretty much all the other boltons including Gen V intake, Venom PCM, 3.55 gears, UD pulley, etc. Shooting for 625rw SAE this spring! Post some pics of the new toy(s)!

Thanks! I actually had it listed for sale a while back if anyone is interested. Believe it or not, it has bigger brakes than the Viper. 6 piston Stoptech's on the front, stoptech monoblock calipers on the rear. I like the car and it is MINT, 23k original miles but I'd like to free up some garage space.

Wow, I LOOOOOOOVE that car! Very tasteful mods - I never realized the later VR4s had double bubble headlights - they look great! That is some serious money though, but I understand the investment you made. I would keep it if you don't need to sell. I have been looking but can't seem to pull the trigger. Always wanted an R/T TT since 1992.
