Awesome

. I've personally always liked the look of your car, but the hood scoop and new paint were really worth the effort because it looks even better.

Keep up the good work!

*drools*

Holy crap I like it!

Are you gonna mesh the bumper or just leave it?

Or better yet ... fill the empty space with an intercooler? *hint hint*

thanks you guys. and i am gonna put mesh back in it then put an intercooler in the middle later.

thats where Tom and a zero balance on my credit card comes in. but that'll be a while.

How come you didn't paint the grill? Are you going to?

lanos2001 · Post by **lanos2001** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 1:43 am

yeah i'm gonna paint it again soon. another guy in class used black paint and was gonna let me use it for the grill and the emblems but he hasn't been to class in a while so i'll just pay for the paint and spray it soon.

well i'm sorry to say the paint job didn't last long on the front bumper. i bottomed out on a driveway today and it just took a chunk out of the front bumper. nothing too big but still it sucks none the less. look like i'll be redoing that at the end of this month. AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

well i figured i would get this thread back up by posting pics of the primer on the door.

woo without a door. i was tempted to just buckle up and go to a drive through but it was actually cold today.

this color scheme actually doesn't look too bad.

oh and even though this looks like progress its actually not. the damn primer cracked for some damn reason on some parts so i gotta block sand it AGAIN and put some sealer on it. but it will be done by the time i go down to houston this time next week. i don't care if the door ends up like shit. it'll be done then re-done when i get back. but i'm hoping to get it right the 3rd time.
