Smile Finally done

tried my hand in auto painting with the help from of all people, an body repairman. actually he's a friend of mine and spent some time out of his busy schedule to let me use his shop and coach me through a few paint runs and redo's :o I still have a veilside rear bumper to finish but thats another story. :D

What are your plans for grillwork? Or are you going to leave it open?

are those just red painted calipers, or do you have a new braking system? nemesis is right about that 4th pic from the left, it looks great! i like your kit, but im not quite feeling the 2 tone gray/silver, but to each his own. it does match your hood nicely though. and BTW what brand hood is that? gemini? seibon?

uhmm... none of those kits match... the lines i mean.... and i am not digging that front bumper... what is it? it's like a cheap knockoff of the MS kit...

well yah not digging the sideskirts cuz they dont match the front... and the front looks awkward

the rims are nice though

thanks stealthfox, yeh it was either tu-tone or all silver and I opt for the tite grey fade and air brushed front end look. calipers are stock though, just painted. Thanks for your honesty, later.
