NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE

i cant stress that enough!

Trying to figure if I like it or not, and I think i do. It looks pretty damn cool for sure, and is different. I would have gone the other way, blue inner and black outer. And this is coming from a person that has a porsche that has all blacked out fuchs wheels. In other words I have been sent to porsche hell for doing that to these original wheels.

wheels look sweet!!!!

Are you going to get rid of that molding on the doors?

where did you get your carbon hood? I want one!

where did you get your carbon hood? I want one!

It was a company in Sweden called Reptil who made a few of them. Bought mine used off a guy in Sweden.

i tried to google them with no luck. is there a web site? or are they gone and i'm too late?

damn man ur viggen wheels look awesome, well done.

It no longer exists. Forgot to mention that.

Since you're in the US, you'll have better luck buying a used one that was made by Kevin Yankton here's a pic of 2 CF hoods he made.

Unfortunately he's out of the business as well :cry:
I think the mold might still be up for sale though. I just saw it.

that sucks. the one person i know who makes carbon parts for saabs has all his molds up for sale. I guess i'm outta luck. unless some up-and-coming carbon fabricator decides to buy up those molds and produces the same quality products. I wish!

They're great cars, just a bit heavy for me. If you can change the hood, fenders, doors, and rear qtr panels to carbon, i bet that's at least 200lbs. that could be shed. then change the front seats to some sparcos or recaros, and there goes another 40-70lbs. ahhhh.....at least i can dream....

I'm guessing you're talking about Kevin Yankton. I think Abott Racing bought some of his molds but I'm not sure which. I saw something recently for sale saying Abbot Racing on it and looked like Kevin's work. I think there was a thread on this forum about it too (within the last month)

for sure i know it was the engine cover. i wonder if anyone is campaigning to perhaps convince the guys at GS to buy them up...? that would be great so the prices wouldn't skyrocket. somehow i think abbott will have a bigger mark up...

I agree with you on that. Kevin's prices were very high as he sold very limited quantities!

By the way Pade. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice wheels :cheesy:

yes, just like everyone else...niiiiiiice wheels. now i'm wondering if i should get mine painted....

whaddya think pade? gunmetal and keep the lip polished?

This car goes on my very short list of all-time favorite Saab 9-3/ng900

:suprised;

*applause*



But that orange in the turn signals kind of sticks out...

Yea that orange reflector has to go. The car looks perfect otherwise :cheesy:

i like it, very nice looking car

Very nice car, I agree that you must take out the orange reflectors. The first picture is my desktop background until you take better pictures with a good background. ;)

wow , those wheels look great! It would not work with just any car/color combo, though. Yes, need clear corners on that car, but I prefer them on my cars. I wonder how smoked would look?

wow :o that looks great. As everyone else said take out the orange reflectors and I'd also tint the windows.

Turned out nice. Looks VW inspired. Looks like you lost a jack point cover. Those are such a pain. Not to mention $$$$$

those look hot. props

Thanks a lot for all the positive feedback.
I thought long and hard how to paint them and I have to say they came out way better than I expected, so needless to say I'm very pleased :)

It's funny with the corners, here in Scandinavia people upgrade to US-spec corners while you guys go for clear corners :D But I think I might have to peel off the orange bit thought. Smoked might also work since I will get a modded carbon grill soon so it would go better with the hood :)

But gunmetal with polished lip is seldom wrong ;)

I don't know could almost go eigher way on your car w/ clearing the corners. Some how it works the way it is in a touring car splash of color sort of way... I wouldn't smoke the lights... But a modded carbon grill would look VERY sexy!

Yea the carbon fiber grille would look nice. Kevin Yankton did it although he did it with an NG900 grille. Looks very nice :cheesy:

Hell yeah! Really nice rims!
I think those would look really sweet in gunmetal with a polished lip! I'd say go for it :cool:

Are those 19" by the way?

Those are so sick I love them!!!!!

The color came out perfect!!!!:p
