continues: budget bora

 
Landspeed, ABD, and MTX are the names to know for budget-minded interior upgrades; The highly coveted Bora badge was acquired from Landspeed; GrillGraft's grilles are some of the finest available at an affordable price.

   A set of ABD's cross-drilled rotors and EBC Greenstuff pads reside behind the wheels. Stopping power is greatly improved over stock and so is the look of the car. Under the hood, ABD's carbon-fiber oil and coolant reservoir caps, carbon-fiber engine cover, and strut tower bar were added to enhance the look of the engine bay. ABD also contributed floor mats and door pins to add the finishing touches on the interior.

   Wet Works Garage and Modern Image Signworks provided the final exterior touches. The graphite sponsor logos set on the car by Modern Image tell those who don't know, exactly what's on the car, and the graphics scheme more than does its part to draw attention. Wet Works Garage provided its new wing and Mercedes-style mirror conversion, as well as some additional paint under the hood and on the body, giving the car a truly custom look. Wet Works' wing can be used as both a deck spoiler or a roof wing, but we opted to use it as a roof wing. The final installment of the myriad of parts from ABD, EBC, Modern Image, and Wet Works Garage ate up the remainder of our budget with the $1,925.55 bill.

   After our modification-shopping spree, the grand total came in at $7,526.78, a mere $26,78 over our budget. Considering that Harley Davidson spent $500,000 developing just the headlight for its newest motorcycle, we don't feel too bad about that little over-expenditure. With that recap ends the Budget Bora Buildup. Don't worry, though, we're always working on something and we promise to continue bringing you the best of the European tech, tuning, and style that you crave -we're eurotuner, what else would you expect?
