nice car BTW, how much did the paint job cost?

Theres a guy i know with a e46 m3 thats doing the same paint job, but the whole thing is a huge vinal overlay... pretty cool stuff... only a few people in the USA can do it, so when he gets sick of the look he can just peel it right off and go back to Alpine White

Its not cheap though, i think he said it cost somwhere in the 2K range for the whole car

I definitely agree on the red mitsu emblem! Flat black just looks soooo mean!!!

red emblems, time attack ce28s so the red matches up. that would be sick because it would also match the lights in the gauges. do that with like jdm 7 tail lights. red seats/harnesses. you really need to black out the interior, like the roof liner etc etc. also black out the valve cover and all of the piping in the engine bay

The car looks amazing! I agree with everyone else saying that the JDM headlights and tails are needed along with tint. How do the cops react to the car?

90% of whats been done has "BEEN DONE" So Shut up and spam somewhere else..!

The point wasnt to reinvent the wheel here just to do something affordable and something he wanted to do. Who cares if you wouldnt be caught dead at your sisters friends brothers girlfriends house. Its his car. Its a car your suppost to do it how you want have fun with it and make it perform at its best.

Pictures will be up later. Waiting for other things.. Heres a Chop i did.. Iam a Noob at Photoshop so i dont know how to add anything just Like an Advanced Coloring Book.

Picture is a Crappy Photoshop but i think i did good. Besides the Headlights being an Evo 7 it will be a Flat Evo 8MR.
