View Full Version : Flame On!
KRYPTONITE
08-23-2009, 11:47 PM
I have had some members request pics of the car. It's time to unvail the new project. The Bee was an incredible car. But I wanted to build a Challenger with attitude. Here it is...the new KRYPTONITE. It started it's life as an SRT8 with the 6 speed stick. It began it's transformation as soon as it landed in my garage. Where do you start?...
Under the hood:
The crown jewel, a Techco twin screw supercharger special ordered in a polished finish.
BT under hood kit.
Under the car:
Universal Air Suspension.
Pro Wheels, 20x8.5, 22x10
Toyo Proxes4 255/35zr20 285/30zr22
Junk in the trunk:
Arc Audio components
DVD, Wii, 23" widescreen
Paint:
Custom flames by the "Wizard"
This car is dedicated to the memory of my son, "Topher".

Can't believe people leave negative comments on that YouTube video. That's why you belong here. We all appreciate how much time and effort you've put into it.

I like the hideaways, saw someone with them at Spring Fest and I love how they pay tribute to the old mopars. I like the stance too. Flames aren't my thing, so I'm glad there are other people who do them big and right! Any interior mods yet?

Interior mods...right now just color matched the shifter and nav bezels. I want to be careful and not just throw things at it. It needs to be high impact but clean at the same time.

Painted flames are one of those things that usually looks awful, but yours look fantastic. The car is really well done and it takes to the spirit of the modern muscle car.
You have done just enough to make the car look great and really pop, but not so much that it looks gaudy like so many "show" cars.

Can't get enough of that!
And the Charger, could you please post some more pics of it aswell? Or at least point to some place where i can find em? :)
By the way, is it ok if i grab em and post them on a swedish forum?

Wow... That really looks sharp...:rock: I must say that front end blacked out really looks cool... however, it makes it look like an old Camaro. I'll bet if GM had seen this first and went more retro with the Camaro it would have been even a bigger hit. Dodge did an awesome job with the Challenger...:thumbs_u: but you just upped the bar for the mod scene with that ride.:not_worth
