I built the car, 18k miles and now I’m tuning her. Always have wanted to learn how to tune!

Had some link/ boosting questions.
Also excited to share my experiences!

Nice color choice, was it originally that color? Jade is one of the rarest factory colors and a personal favorite of mine. I would have left the roof factory talon black though. Interested to see what you have planned for it.

 

[Brandon Wisner]

It is a black! Top coat is a plasti dip from dipyourcar.com but I love the jade! Would be my personal pick. But I have the rare quarter windows !!
& thanks man !

I hate the wheels sticking out like that and the tires are not right for the rims (which looks willfully ignorant and unsafe). I have never seen that color before, or those rear quarter windows. It makes it look like a Dodge Avenger

Hey there! Welcome! That color looks awesome. I too have a 97 Talon, only difference is the AWD. My goal with it is 400hp as well. I look forward to seeing the build

If I had some fender flares (will get some) it’d look a lot better. Handles awesome. One of the best wheel+tire combo I’ve had on the car. 18x9” I don’t know the offset tho.

Nice color, first time I see a dsm in that color, I also own a 97 talon.
For some reason I can’t see the rear quarter panels, can you post some pics in here so we have a better view or the complete car, interior would be nice too.

Some flares will make it look really cool,I bet wheels are +45 off set.

Did you check his build thread for the car? That's where I saw the super unique rear windows. Always cool to see something different after so many years!

As for the rear quarter window, check out this thread: http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/2gb-talon-rear-quarter-glass-anomaly.272962/

Here's one of my favorite shots of @Eckzavier TSi AWD, which has oem Jade Metallic paint for comparison:

Holly caw I didn’t even realized that. That’s a really cool design.
