Painted and assembled *PICS*
Well I went home this weekend after painting the car over labor day to put it back together. The pics are a little dark because I finished just before sunset.
I realize not all of you like this sort of thing but I had no choice to do something with the sunifre... ultimate goal was making it look nothing like a sunfire which I feel I accomplished. All the work was done by myself and it was the project of my whole summer. Now I can start on my turbo kit soon. Well enjoy http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQAGA...37615464560558 http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQDHA...37615731957268 http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQA6K...37615812368600 http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQDZA...37615843583468 http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQDKA...37616236827492 http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQAAA...37615886809928 |

Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*

Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
You're right man, it's not my cup of tea, but it looks like you did a really nice job on it. I can appreciate hard work even if the finished product isn't my taste. Nice work. I want to see what your turbo setup turns out like. Don't foget to take lots of pics of that so Jeff can add it to the tech.

Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
All you need now is a huge intercooler in that big mouth.Nice paint job.

Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Good job. I can always appreciate hard work done by an individual. Anyone can slap money down at a paint shop, but it takes dedication to do it in your garage. 8)
We dont have alot of sunfires here in Ca. so I wasn't sure what kind of car that was. If I had to guess without knowing, I'd call it a tiburon. ??? |
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Looks good, this may sound kinda dumb, but since your car is really going for appearence, you may want to throw on some bigger rims to fill in the wheel well.
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Fill that gap man. That car is really turning out to look awsome. Love the paint choice. ;D
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
I 2nd filling that mouth and lower or adding larger rims/tires
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Looks reallly good man....if it's what you like, then that's all that matters..peace
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Unfortunately, cars like yours are all to common around here (I'm about 35 minutes away from the GM Lordstown assembly plant, J-bodies like the Cavs and Sunfires are all too common.)
Not bad. Looks like the paint turned out ok. Plus, you own a Matco box, so you're cool anyway. |
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Jeff,
What you said does make sense. I do like the look of bigger wheels but those are already 17's. I think 18's are just too much rotating mass becuase I am still concerend about performance. I plan to drop the car 1.5 inches yet when i get some cash, that will help with the wheelgap. As for everyone saying filling the front...look at my avatar. I already have a custom coach intercooler. I should have it turbocharged hopefully very soon. :) I'd like to have a mix of both performance and appearance. My background just allows me to do the appearance a little more than anything |
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
It looks good man.
I luv the paint...my car is in need of some paint :'( |
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Looking good and it's going to be turbocharged, the best of boath worlds.
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
i think it looks good and i usually hate bodykits.. your whole car flows together not like a curvy ass bodykit on a box lookin crx. you will get mad ----- with that ride, just put a ferrari emblem on the front and you will have to beat the chicks off with a stick.
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
im going to be doing the same thing im my garage. good job for doing it yourself and not just paying someone off and taking the credit. looks good!!!
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
to cool man .... i remember when you first came on here saying all the stuff you were going to do. Well you came along way bro and i salute your painting skills ( still like my flat black paint :P ). Its looking real good ,even though im not a big kit fan, but its looking good....kick ass job ;)
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Paint looks clean. Good work
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*
Yep, I don't think I'd know it was a Sunfire if I saw it driving down the road. Can't wait to see the turbo project on it.
|
Re:Painted and assembled *PICS*

... random thought... how many boats does any particular family need?? I saw 4(?) boats in the background... sheesh, you running storage over there? |
