Quick Update-What's your opinion?

Well, just thought id post up a few work in progress pictures.....since my main competition is also on this forum......The car is by no means complete and still needs to go for paint and also need to finish the fiberglass in the trunk.


















You can flame, do whatever you want, my car, I drive it.

Negative and Positive are appreciated as I know all people can't be pleased with a car but I am happy with it.

Let me know what you guys think,


Mark

I think the outside looks really good. The inside isn't so much my taste but then it isn't mine is it? Good job.

Well, once you paint the front bumper the front end will be nicer, and I still think you've gotta do something about her fat a$$. Love the car overall, but its just so different from mine (his biggest competition), it just looks like its missing something...maybe a spoiler - I know its not ur style - maybe something else. I cant put my finger on it. Either way, looks nice thus far.

heh its deff not getting a spoiler no matter what........that rear lip is PLENTY for me.

and obviously i need to repaint the bumper, flat black primer doesnt cut it but it works great for plowing and the winter.

i think it looks good. of course the stuff you need to work on, i'm sure you already know about ie: trunk cleanup, fix airbag so you can drop the back.

what about some engine mods to spruce it up? i think a powdercoated or painted IM would go along way, along with a ceramic coated header.

perhaps some tails and wheels should be next on the list to complete the look (go with the evo vii style ones). i kinda like the no spoiler look, but it makes the *** look like it sticks out waaaay to much, so it look unproportional

other than that it looks pretty hot and im sure once your completely finished it will be the hottest thing going.

The pics are kinda old(a week) and I already started building my amp rack, sub boxes and fiberglassing it all in.

As far as engine mods go, cold air intake and header, thats it.

I have black wheels that you can see on my cardomain, winter and snow dont like nice wheels.

Evo7 tails might be an option, for now ill stay stock until i decide.


The fiberglassing should be done in the next 2 weeks. The brackets will be welded into the rear(zlancer had to do the same thing) this week.

I'm not a huge fan of the airbag suspension, but it looks nice over-all, just get that bumper taken care of

I didn't even notice the front bumper being primered. The shorty rear bumper would look nice.

ahh, good choice with the wheels, i'm doing the same thing, just got to wait for my dam slipstreams to come in so i can put my summer tires on


why no more engine mods than header and intake? i think a ford red stock IM would be awesome looking.

also, check out: http://www.performancecoatings.com/headercoatings.html

for header coatings. i think the satin fresh blast would be up your ally

No more engine mods because I dont want to get into having to do a piggyback and all that stuff to manage the mods....

My race car is almost complete so that will be my engine mod car, this is my show car.

Race car is a fully built h22a1 turbo w/ nitrous in a civic EG hatch, race axles, LSD, sleeved block, the full deal.

I might end up painting the manifold to match.
