for those as eager to see this painted and done will have to wait another week. Jack Frost has caused quite a few pile ups last night, and the bodyshop is now swamped with work that pays. lol since they are doing my project and taking a loss on it, I can understand why they are busy now with new work.

Gotta wait now till next Tuesday

I wanna cry, it always happens Winter always snatches victory from me.

well right after I finish installing this one, I own a second project car / EVOSOUL 1 that I will be possibly matching up the Concept GT rear bumper, so I will be somewhat be pushing the two cars in two different directions. One will be 2 ***** with a Turbo setup and the other will have one lol N.A. jokin,

I am just a bit bummed because of all the weather delays, all that aside you should have seen this accident I saw unfold infront of my eyes on the highway last night, mini van hit the beginning of a guard rail and flipped over, I pulled over, the lady driving it broke her wrist and and her daughter was fine. I stupidly was about to record the scene or take drive by pictures, but then decided to just get out and see whats going on... lady was lucky, mini van was toast. I left the camera running in my car on the seat so all it recorded was flashing lights 10 minutes later.

Moral of this story, SLOW the #&#( down, speeding or just driving oblivious to weather conditions is just plain stupid

End of March or First week in April has been confirmed... everyone involved will now vote on the day of the week in the next 5 days.

I am also talking to vendors so I can start cataloging hardware, its a slow process, somewhat to give something, some dont, all hardware donated will be then sold to raise money for a TBA charity, or will be decided by the Vendor. Will be voted on.

TO LAncer will be there,
CLUB RSX (RSX and RSX -S)
a S2000 will be there
And you bet your sweet potatos that some WRX's will be there.

I had to push it back to April cause all these snow storms in toronto are really interfering with all the events I am trying to organize, even regular TORONTO Car Club meets, when ever we all pick a day, a snow storm seems to hit right on time.
GRRRR

UPDATE
lol I dont make this up another snow storm, accidents all over the place, Bodyshop delaying by another week. Its the same storm that went thru Ohio 12 hours ago and screwed up the election stuff.

Sorry guys it will be another week or two before they get started on it.
They are doing this project at cost or basically free, so when a snow storm rolls in I dont blame them. makes me want to open up a bodyshop, seems like huge money.

Other updates, I may be doing a formal review of these Plustar Spark Plugs some people have been low level chatting about. I will announce anything official as they happen

lol a month later finally get that damn bodykit slapped on to this car. Here are the prelim. pictures for Blacksheep since that would be the first damand. SHOW ME THE PICS...
Special thanks to ROB at Phoenix Autobody.... very professional and alot of knowledge in the bodyshop world. Special thanks to bodykits.com for their support and providing this bumper for evaluation. Thanks to everyone else for the comments and feedback. A formal review is soon to come. Next on the list is to now make cosmetic adjustments to the dual exhaust so that the line up is perfect. For the past 5 months the left side had to be dropped lower then the right so that it wouldnt damage the stock bumper. A tad embarssing but, meh, it was for the greater good.

Cheers
here ya go

Sweet man!

That looks tight... definitly spruces things up some.

With all that room, I think it would look even better if you put a dual exhuast tip on each side, I think it would fill in the space nicely and look beefer... something along the lines like this (just a suggestion)
