something doesn't seem right about having the trunk one color and the spoiler a different color.

chrism

Moostafa29

If you've followed th whole thread, you'd know that I went off the road and messed my car up a bit. I just got my car back to drive it home (texas) this weekend, I'm supposed to drop it back off early this week to get both bumpers, both tailights, and sideskits on. Will post a bunch of pics when that happens, as of now, the front and sides are still the same as previous pics. Refer to the earlier pics to see the difference inbetween the trunk earlier and now. It was all scratched to hell, now it's all nice and new. Except a little dusty in the pics ... I am aware of all the flaws, and am working to fix them. I leave for arkansas here in a few hours. Hopefully they finish my car up quickly, because I think my boss is getting tired of carting me around lol. Take it easy,
Will

EDIT- I got the RB Grills powdercoated this weekend because there was no one that did it in arkansas. It matches my roof. Can't wait till everything's finally done...

ya, i was following the whole thread. i usually try not to post anything until i've read the whole thread (if it's a small one) or a few pages of it (if it's a rather large one). I just thought that you had already finished your car. i didn't realize that you were still waiting on the tail light, and on the bumper.

if you car is still under warranty though, you can get the OEM tail light replaced at no cost. happened to my 8. i took it in, 'bout an hour later my car was back out w/the new tail lamp .

Oh yeah, no worries... unfortunately I bought the car used in feb. with no warranty, as-is. Otherwise, I would hit them up on the free taillight deal.
I wish I was done with it. haha,

Here's some pics that weren't taken at night:

dude! your ride is pimpin! i like the two tone

but umm....what's that black spot on the windshield on the driver's side?

that actually looks pretty good from top view.

N rider89

yeah i like the top view. i think the black spot is a building

XDEEDUBBX

not too sure i like any of it, but atleast you didn't paint the entire roof. hahaha

momo

Dood since you’re going with the two tone color scheme, don’t forget about getting some eyelids in black or carbon fiber. I'm digging that combo.

overdrive

Hehe, I figurd people woud either like it or hate it so I'm not surprised. I really like the way it came out, I think it looks better in person. At the current stage, the pictures don't give it justice. The only thing I'm on the fence about is whether the front bumper sould be 2 toned. I'm going to have RB type 2 nose, I thik it might be cool if the lower lip was dark grey. I am already painting the plastic part on the OEM rear bumper to match the trunk. So I think it would tie it all in. Or maybe I'm just going paint crazy. lol.

That's just the shadow of my mom's town homes

dude, woudn't that give me +15 HP though??? Maybe I should do that now.

overdrive

I'm not sure about eyelids. What pair do you suggest? I havn't really looked into those. Something on my list is those fibeglass side vents evo-r is going to make. I really like those.

overdrive

Figured I'd give an update. I had to find a new guy to install the bumpers & do the paint because the one I had doing it was doing a sloppy & SLOW job. So the car goes in friday to the new guy. I painted the calipers on my car and started a fiberglass enclosure. The pictures are attached,

Didn't realize I had already posted pics of the calipers earlier in the thread... ooops. Anyways,

I like racing beat a lot also, quality products for cheaper ('cept that pricey intake, lol). The RB spoiler is top notch, I really like it also. I had my RB screens powdercoated to match the indention/hood/trunk of my car last weekend. I will get them installed when I put on the RB bumper. They are a lifesave because my oil screens are starting to get beat up!

Thanks for the compliment,
Will

overdrive

Yeah the RB Customer Service is top notch. When I was getting my bumper shipped, the shipping company wouldn't do after hour shipping (I was working) unless you payed a whopping 100+ dollar fee. Racing Beat called the shipping company and helped me work it out so I didn't have to pay that. (They called when they were almost to my house, and I met them there) RB ME haha

It should be on by monday. I have a friend that works at a body shop, him and I are going to start friday evening and work through the weekend. I cannot wait.
