(warning, picture intensive)

Hey Guys, some of you have probably seen me go to the occasional beyond meet, my car isnt anything too special.. definitely not as crazy as some of your builds but i decided to share anyways since i do love her!

I picked her up march of this year.

2010 Genesis Coupe 2.0t
Premium model
Nordschleife Grey




home and in the garage!


morning shot



For some reason spray tint realllly didnt work on my lights... it cracked the lenses on both...
Had to get em replaced.. Luckily someone had a set for sale in Edm for cheap... so i made a quick trip up there....cost me$200 bucks



New taillights installed! and Debadged!!



Now off to the slow process of modding/waiting for parts

first things to arrive WHEEL SPACERS!
20mil front, 25 mil rears





Next mod... HID's and yellow fogs


went through 3 sets of HID's till i finally got a set that worked good... moral of the story.. dont go cheap -__-

Tail light tint arrived!! its actual tint, not spray





Just a random 4x4 progress shot... i think she's still sexy

...and yes i work at shaw lol

Had a saturday free so I went for a cruise with some friends to Canmore area.... gotta say.. the stock genny is PRETTY quick..






FAST FORWARD.. still waiting on parts to arrive so i decided to Rice it out a little.. i was sick of the stupid chrome and silver interior pieces so i carbon wrapped the interior






WOOT ONE PART ARRIVED.... K-sport lowering springs 2" drop all around... good enough for now until i get coils!




Install complete, suspension still not settled yet







Still waiting for more parts to arrive so i decided to have some fun on forza hahah


Another 2 months go by!


FMIC is IN!

Ralco short shifter!


Garageline Wheel Spacers to replace my fronts cuz they were giving me a retarded vibration, I have to say, these are WELL WORTH the money!

Looking good...where did you get the CF vinyl? is it 3M?

[vtec4life]

Interested in seeing what kind of power you get with those mods!

[bowlofrice]

I decided to cheap out haha, found a US vendor on ebay that had a roll of 24x120 carbon wrap listed for 16 bucks, it worked very well and seems to be holding out pretty good, so we'll see in the future!

[supe]

I think you need new shoes.

[bowlofrice]

Just waiting for them to arrive actually haha

[ekguy]

how do you like the car? Nice ride so far???

[bowlofrice]

its prettty awsome, the ride is a little stiff due to the k-sports but its fine other than that... also... DYNO'D!!!!!!!!!

[bowlofrice]

stock is about 173hp to the wheels and 210tq


New numbers are 258hp to the wheels and 280tq

Nice! what front mount are you running, and how long did the install take? I've never heard of the SFR tune, what's involved in installing this and what kind of additional performance did you see out of it?

[bowlofrice]

just a cheaper one.. cx-racing, had to fab my own brackets hahah, and the intake took 15? minutes i think.

SFR is in the states, they specialize in only KDM vehicles! google em or look em up in the gencoupe.com forums!

[bowlofrice]

Looks like next upgrade will be a new clutch.... stock one cant handle this power -__-
