Yeah I like it, but I think I'm leaning towards the srt bumper I love the look and keep coming back to that bumper. My wallet is arguing fiercely with me though.redneckmoparman wrote:i love the look of the hood with the 02 front i want to graft the skin onto a 00-02 hood to avoid the gap though and make it look original

Going with the srt front bumper, got a good deal on a damaged one that I need to fix then need the headlights and fog lights. Also have the hood scoop insert coming. I'm excited, god I hope my Monte Carlo get back from the body work soon so I can concentrate on that and stop buying stuff for this car lol

Still not low enough lol. Once the skirts and bumpers are on then I'll see about modifying it to get lower. I think it will need to come down some in the back to level it out at drop.redneckmoparman wrote:lookin good! and damn thats low lol i love it you should take some pics of the suspension i dont thing ive ever seen a bagged neon suspension seen lots of coilovers super low and like 3 or 4 bagged neons but never pics of the bagged suspensions
I looked for pic from when I originally did the air ride but didn't have any, I didn't used to take progress shots much. When I get back in there I'll try to remember to take pics. Not a whole lot to see though, the bags in these are strut bags so they just bolt in. I have a lot of builds and pics of my vehicles and old vehicles on my photobucket account, username lowonairpres
You can check out lots of air ride pics on there.

Didn't get the side skirts on, and still need to do the mesh in the front bumper and paint the reinforcement black. Still waiting for my taillights too.

Decided to make some money of the bumper I refurbed and sold it for a nice profit and bought a close to mint one instead. I didn't bother dipping it black since it was black already and I just received my gallons to spray it once the weather warms up some. This bumper came with mesh, upper scoops and an aftermarket logo. I had to fix a small crack underneath but that was easy. I pulled the mesh, trimmed it and painted and baked it to harden the paint, I didn't feel like powdercoating last night. I also painted the reinforcement. I also bought a set of fog light bezels from a forum member so they are on it now. I have HIDs for the lows and fogs, and led highs, new mirrors, tails, intake, moroso muffler and the rt side skirts to go on.

I'm dipping the whole car soon, as soon as it's warm enough for my electric heater in the garage to regulate the temp without the open flame heaters.FAC3L3SS wrote:Aww yiss. Paint that front!

No that just happened without me realizing it. I have been seeing a lot of purple wheels lately and loving them. Then when DYC came out with the teal and purple it was at the same time and they had 2 wheels next to each other in the ads, one purple and one teal, I though they looked good next to each other. I fell in love with the teal on the VW they did and that was all she wrote then.redneckmoparman wrote:love it basically the negative of your color now lol it looks like your sig guessing thats where you got the idea
I saw a minty teal one but not this color yet.r/tguy02 wrote:interesting, teil def not something you see on a neon
