The MiG 63 Project

Just showed up this afternoon. As a previous owner of an M5, I must say this car is a LOT more fun already. Can't wait to begin the modding process.

For cosmetics am going to tint and powdercoat the wheels matte black, for performance I am thinking of getting the MHP S2CM package from MHP.

Congrats, and stay away from MHP. It's a shady company.

You can do a research on the forum, you gonna have some fun reading.

If I were you, I'd go with a reputed company like Kleemann... That's my opinion of course.

Might not be your cup o' tea but looks even better on white IMO.

How much does powder coating the rims cost? Would love to do that. Anyone know of the impact it would have on my lease?

Appreciate all the loving guys! Will post interior pics when I get the car back Tuesday along with the new wheels.

And yes, I am from Ukraine. Wish we had 2002 Sheva for this eurocup

Got the car back a little later than expected, but the wheels look good.

Going to do the side markers next, and then hopefully get some H&R springs and spacers, and then on to some engine and exhaust mods.
