Where'd you find 'em???

Postby tigerdog » Sat 19.09.2009, 19:46

Perfect colour. Do they come in 12 1/2? Are they narrow enough (in that size) to fit between brake and centre tunnel so I can work the gas? Those criteria are currently met by some Mitre indoor soccer shoes which are no longer made. I'm hurtin' for a new pair of shoes. I like 'em, Ekapol!

I believe they have the size up to 15 :shock:

You might want to check their site http://www.piloti.com/

I got them at a very good price at http://www.sportsmansguide.com/search/search.asp?r=Page%3A%2FDefault.asp+KW+Box&s=SEARCH&a=search&k=piloti Thanks to Nitroman for passing me the information.

Piloti shoes cheap - buy 'em if you want 'em

Thanks for the pointer, Ekapol. Unfortunately, they seem to be closing out and are already out of some sizes - like mine. :(

Thank you guys.

I didn't close the trunk all the way.... so I could easily put my camera back into my bag in the trunk. Now I'm looking at these pictures and see wider trunk gaps than normally are. Blame my own laziness :?

Doug: You could go to my site http://www.ekapolphotography.com/Cars ... for more pictures :smt026

Been awhile since I've checked the site. The car looks amazing!! I am so far behind on mine. Are you showing it somewhere? Or how can I see it in person? You and Marie are the best.

I think I posted this on/around page 4 of this thread. You could order them from Dave Bean Engineering. :-)

Picked up my calipers from having them powder-coated. They are a bit bigger than my Wilwood ;-)
