I will use this as the build thread for my new car, i'm building a brand new 2019 300S Hemi in velvet red pearl! so far my to-do list is as follows, 5% ceramic tint on the windows and 25% on the whole windshield, have the paint corrected and then ceramic coated along with the wheels and the windows, and delete the front mufflers leaving the rear resonators for a little more volume but no drone. now, onto the parts list! so far i've got a set of Velgen's new VF5 lightweight gloss black wheels staggered in 20x9.5 for the front and 20x11 for the rear, which will be wrapped in continental dws06's 275 front and 315 rear, to get the stance right I have mopar's super track pack on the way, along with their stage 1 lowering springs, petty's garage front and rear sway bars, and bwoody's control arm, trailing arm, and sway bar link kit, mopar front and rear splash guards to help keep it clean, petty's garage front and rear strut tower braces to stiffen it up, the front one being color matched to the car, a mishimoto catch can, and a legmaker hammer carbon intake! the last few things I still have to order are the mopar front big brake kit, mopar 3.90 lsd rear diff, mopar all weather floor mats to keep it clean, and a set of billet tech 3mm wheel spacers to be safe.. tell me what y'all think, and I look forward to the build progressing! I haven't had a hemi in about 5 years now, so it'll be a nice change from the diesels!

#1 i've always loved the aggressive, yet understated look of the 300 #2 chrysler is offering DEEP discounts on the 300 since this allegedly is their last year #3 while the 6.4 in the scat is awesome, i'm not really a fan of the charger body style. all in all with the options the 300 has, to get the same in a scat would have been 8-10k more, and id of modded it heavily too, so with this I get the simple, quick, comfortable, and efficient cruiser I was after :)

well, some more fun stuff showed up today! the bwoody lx suspension kit, mopar lowering springs, petty's garage sway bar kit, front and rear mud guards, and all the mounting hardware so I don't have to pirate anything off the old struts




I also will be selling the super track pack lowering springs that comes with the kit, they're .5"+ of a drop front and rear and a more sporty rate than the stock stuff.. $200? literally brand new haha

Hope those rims and tires work out, I had to roll fenders all around with the MOPAR Stage ones. My rear tires are 29.0" tall, believe yours are 28.7".

that's how low yours sits on mopar stage 1 springs alone? and we'll see, I ordered some BT spacers if need be as well.. your car looks really low, perhaps from the 22's throwing off the wheel well appearance?

sounds like a fun build, what's it make for power, 600+? and yeah, it seems like the '15+ cars have more accommodating wheels wells for some reason as I see alot on a similar set-up to mine

That's a nice thought, but unfortunately that would be a money pit for them at this point, they stopped making the SRT8 version of the 300 because the sales numbers didn't support it.

will do! I just ordered the SRT8 rear valence today, and some more goodies came in as well, so ill update with some more pictures when I get home.. since I got the SRT valence and need tips I might as well get a corsa extreme exhaust I guess? hahaha

I don't think a 'tribute' 300 SRT would be that hard. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only difference between the Charger and the 300 is the dashboard and the sheetmetal?
If so, how hard would it be to take a Charger Scat Pack and put the 300 body and dashboard on it?
The only reason I'm asking/saying is cause I don't have the stomach for doing what thewayfastwhitey is doing. Wish i did..!! I have considered just getting the Scat Pack, really only because of the 392 and the posi, but I just don't like the looks of the charger as much as the 300 (for this old man).
One of my main issues is I visit older customers a lot, and the 300 passes muster. Not so sure a scat pack would?

I don't understand how the Charger variant outsold the 300 in the first place. If I had been in the market for a new SRT vehicle when both were still being produced I would have picked up the 300 without giving the Charger a second glance, they're just such good looking vehicles.

the 300 is definitely MUCH better looking! the problem has always been because they are a "luxury" brand they've always been a good bit more expensive than the dodge variants which were already expensive to start with is what I think.. some more goodies showed up today as well, polished stainless front muffler deletes, spohn trailing arms, and some billet tech spacers just to be safe with the new wheels and tires!

You may have a point there, I forgot about the luxury car premium they charged, I've looked at several second gen SRT 300s and damn they're tempting.

oh yeah, they're a great value when compared to other luxury cars, but compared to the rest of their vehicle family they definitely are pricey before rebates/incentives

Surprized yours isn't coming with that cup holder. My car is fully optioned except for sunroof, (glad it doesn't have one) and it has the cool/heated holder.
