Yep, Plasti-pwnt like the rest of society right now. The roof is streaky because the can was half full (or half empty) while I was spraying and it was uneven and a bitch so I just bombed it. It's whatever. Fenders and front I actually like. Skirts are off at paint STILL. I still owe him $30 for the paint so they're being held ransom haha. Otherwise, I'm looking into Megan springs and Tokyos for a moderate and comfortable drop, and that's about it. Just maintain the bitch.

Also, the wheels are actually painted, albeit poorly. Oh, and yeah just two of them haha. Fuck that rear quarter panel, I'll rock it dented for life. Flame away!

front bumper reminds me to some big fat chimp lips!

Lol! Yeah, there's another 00-01 runnin' around with the Evo front, but his is wider and goes out to the other end of the turn signals. Looks decent, but it's poorly done and he's got a gloss black hood on the car too. Plus his is dark blue.

so u used that plasti-dip shit?

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Tue May 24, 2011 2:16 pm

Yes sir. Everything black (aside from wheels) is plasti-dip

Sorry Adam, I can't really say I like it.

Something about it just seems....off. At least it's Plasti-Dip though.

Wow...kind of wish I wouldve painted my flakes black like I wanted to lol but meh I like the wheels I got in the trade. Thanks again adam. Honestly, if you would widened the "evo" front to the width of that lower portion between the fogs it would look better, but I still dig it. Nice work.

Never was a fan of fender stripes.

But otherwise, it looks clean at least

The way it's looking my megan springs will still be up for grabs, for the time being.

Yup, looks very ricetastic.

not a fan, but i'm happy to see you in a neon again.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Tue May 24, 2011 9:16 pm

love this forum. Still undecided, but for the time being it'll stay pretty damn similar to this.

I'm gona say it looks different and I kinda like it BUT DO IT RIGHT! No, "It's whatever"

I can appreciate the effort, but all I can think of is Hitler neon...

stdlystdmufn · Post by **stdlystdmufn** » Tue May 24, 2011 10:13 pm

maybe in the upper side keep the lines where they are and extend the lower to the edge of the fogs? so it kinda goes like / \

maybe just snag some 1gn sport/rt springs and dump the ride. it'll be cheap, but hella soft

The two sided wheel colors crack me up! When did you get another neon? Sell the honda?

I think its about time you start planning for an srt swap.

Midnight_Rider · Post by **Midnight_Rider** » Wed May 25, 2011 12:41 am

Are you keeping the fender stripes?

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Wed May 25, 2011 2:10 am

I'd like to make the fender stripes permanent, personally. Once it's lowered with all the wheels black, it'd look better. PLUS skirts should be on soon.

Chad - I sold the Honda last September for an '02 Mitsu Lancer. Fkin' auto, I hated driving it. Traded the Lancer for the Neon in February. I doubt this'd get swapped. 171,xxx and this thing runs smoother than my first Neon. 2nd gear grinds sometimes, but I drive like an old man so I'm not too stressed.

Yeah, I've heard the "do it right speech" plenty. Honestly? Two cans of plasti-dip to see how it dries and sprays. I like the gloss black on the wheels too much to just dip them, but all in all I'm glad I did it. I'll peel the crap off when it starts to go naturally.

Zach - I like that idea, but like Dan said I think it'd look better if it were that wide all the way down. I don't dig the "flare."

Keep 'em comin' guys!

I'm not digging the evo bumper and the painted rims. But the quality of work looks pretty good. Are you still planning to do the 02 bumper with mach lip like you said in your last pic thread?

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Wed May 25, 2011 8:39 am

No. 03 and mopar lip

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed May 25, 2011 11:13 am

I'm strangely reminded of Steven's 00 in it's early phases when he had the bombed roof and front bumper.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Wed May 25, 2011 11:17 am

Likewise CM. It's clean IMO but will still go through changes.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed May 25, 2011 11:17 am

It is very clean I will definitely give you that. Looking forward to what you do with it in time

DOSneons · Post by **DOSneons** » Wed May 25, 2011 9:02 pm

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed May 25, 2011 9:17 pm

Home Depot in the spray paint department. It's in a blue/yellow can with a black cap.
