ok guys, i'm losing the headlight things. Actually they are made out of molded plexy glass, not cardborad. And yes, like I said before I am going to back up the rice with some go very soon. My hobby is body work, so thats why I did all the rice, and then my friend got me into engines just a few months ago and gave me a turbo and some other free stuff to get me started...It's coming, i'll let you all know when my turbo is done.

If you did all the work, damn, your good, and the body work, and paint look clean as hell.

I know you said before you will back up the looks with some go, that's cool

Yes I did all the body work my self, 1st time I ever had to weld was shaving my door moldings. I also made my own side skirts so that no one else would have the same ones that I do. The red taillights are stock tails painted with transparent red, (model paint) then clear coated over them when the rest of the car was painted to give them more of a stock look. At least I don't have altezza's like everyone and their mom.

hahaha man you are right, the car will look a lot better with an intercooler up front, black rims would not be too bad either, it'll give it more of a racing look.

I wish I could do body work like that

hmmmmm test fit.......


Are you sure you didn't buy an intercooler to put on the front of your car so people would think you have a turbo It looks like its been on there for a while considering its covered in snow.
