No great pics yet of the paint and what not, from crappy ridiculous ice storms that knocked out our power for 5 days to mocing in the middle of it and finding time to work on my car i havent got around in good enough weather to get anything super lol but its back to me finally!!! Lemme know whatcha think so far

Got my antenna shaved, and a few other little things done too. My new steering wheel was color matched, is the best shot ive got of my new paint so far lol This is how it looks in the sun, BLING!!

That's a lot of flake! Shines very nicely in the sun...

Too bad you couldn't drive that out when we meet up for the other bumper, I wanted to see the car. It was nice meeting you, for the breif 30 seconds or so.

You need some mesh in the grille openings, and nice large FMIC to go in the center! Eyelids would make the car look even meaner, and have you thought about going with color matched tails from hak?

Looking good, I'm hoping my car will be finished by the time summer rolls around.

Thought about color matching my tails yeah, but not thru hak. We mixed a slightly diff base coat and a tiny bit of pearl into the clear/flake, and my body shop guy made a recipe for it if i need more paint done so id have him do it. Mesh should be on the way for the front sides and rear lol eye lids wont be do-able til 100% nice weather as id go with CF. Wouldve loved to drive the car down to show ya Amit lol was actually the original plan, but it wasnt done til wednesday morning.

Either mesh or maybe a big fat intercooler along with a turba'.

That kit looks wicked! Nice pick!

Yeah - nice job - I like the wheels youve got as well : )

And dont do Eyelids . . .those things suck : )

Color matched tails would look tight : )

Wow, i hated that kit on srt-4s but i really like it on your car. The rear is really nice and that color is sick. Im not a fan of eyelids as well but I think those blacked out 03+ lights would look really good.

lookin nice forsure, good job love the color and the rims set it off nicely

The body kit is directly from BuddyClub2, we actually only had minimal fitment issues. The side skirts rubbed the bottom of the door, but nothin a lil spray paint for marking and some sanding didnt fix. The very front corner pieces on top of the rear bumper were cracked, only like an inch in, but also a VERY easy fix. Otherwise the kit came pre-marked for drilling and everything.

Yes it says Bride lol does look like Urine there though lol Totally honest with the airbag, i dont do ALOT of high speed driving and if im gonna get rear ended in town doin like 20, id rather not a broken face anyways lol I know there importance and all that and i know itll happen eventually, but its a risk lots of ppl take for show cars. My body shop guy even gave me more crap for shaving my antenna than removing the airbag lol lil odd but eh lol

Thanks for all the compliments so far!! Besides mesh and some ppl thinkin eyelids would look nice, anyone have any negative comment on it? always looking for contsructive criticism so i can keep improving as im new to show scene.

I can't see anything negative about it.

Very well done job man, definately a good looking car.

Unless you go with some dark(black) mesh in the front...I would stay away from mesh.......some bright shiney aluminum or chrome mesh would look like CRAP IMO........

However, a nice shiney FMIC would look VERY good behind that bumper......hint hint hint......

joelrgr · Post by **joelrgr** » Sat Feb 25, 2006 12:49 pm

Looking at black powdercoated wire woven mesh actually lol Wanna stay dark with everything so it all blends nicely. Chrome is NOT my thing lol the lip on my wheels are machined even, i didnt want chrome.

FMIC would look very sexy behind it, BUT itd be useless as im not planning on turbo'ing. Id love to, but its not part of the plan for the car so

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Sat Feb 25, 2006 2:01 pm

I would go w/ a dark mesh as well...I used to have the silver mesh in the bottom center part of my kit, and then it loosened itself from the glassing holding it in, so I just took it out. I dont plan on putting it back, I think it looks alot better w/out mesh
