you did not really paint black int, white did you?

2slow4stock 03-20-08 12:35 AM

Oh but he did... :D Looks nice, Its going to get dirty really easy :X

TOOSHORT_88 03-20-08 12:42 AM

naw it was blue,
Thats why i clear coated it all, wipes off so easily.

TOOSHORT_88 03-20-08 12:45 AM

I added a flattening agent to the clear coat on the dash , I didnt want to be blinded by the reflection on the window.

endneu913 03-20-08 02:22 AM

Its gonna look really fresh when its done for sure.. and be quite unique! bravo on going your own way.... I like the panda paint scheme... super JDM!!! ( lol, no, i didnt mean that in the way you think i did)

Park it next to a panda Trueno!

iani1.1 03-20-08 09:55 AM

wow thats nice, i thought it was gonna look ricey as hell. i like it

The Wankler 03-20-08 10:38 AM

Looks good.

I have a custom white interior as well. It is all done in pleather though. When I bought the car there was a lot of white on the dash area. I had to get rid of that. it was blinding on the eyes.

TweakGames 03-20-08 10:45 AM

Maybe it is just me, but wont the white dash really reflect in your windshield when you drive compared to a dark one? I remember putting a piece of paper on my dash once on a sunny day and its reflection in the windshield was VERY annoying. Maybe it was because it was a white piece of paper on a dark dash, but let me know what you think when you drive your 7 again.

Thanks

Looks good, nice work!

DriftN7 03-21-08 12:50 AM

I like it too, its differnt, and the custom sub boxes

rx7fan1903 03-21-08 08:44 AM

damn it looks like that paintjob took a while! Lookin' good, man!

reminds me of the import scene of 98-2000, so i can understand the styling.

Not feeling the molded in kit though, i think a good show car build would be awesome with all perfectly fitting body panals. molded in stuff is just a cheap cure for crap fitting parts.

icky

Molded on kit is something the beginners cant comprehend. Takes lots of skill and knowledge to create body lines that didnt exist, and flow with the stock body lines like it was from the factory...

My kit is actually a legit GP SPORTZ KIT , heres how it looked wen it wasnt molded....

heres what i started with,

are you going to make this a show only car?

TOOSHORT_88 03-22-08 02:45 PM

I have been working on this car for lil bit over 8 months now, dont have much free time. I will drive this car on weekends and only when its nice out and no rain.

Dont even try to say .. oh ur kit gonna crack from vibrations , blah blah blah.. Like i said not for the beginners. Kit was molded on using resin and a catalyst hardner and couple of fiberglass layers of mating.

TOOSHORT_88 03-22-08 02:48 PM

Enuf obout the car... This thread is about my interior.. What do you guys think about the pearl????

I was gonna do my verts blue interior ,dash ect with black vinyl die then put scarab green pearl in the mid coat mixing clear, then clear coat it all so it will be bulletproof.

That Rx-7 kid 03-22-08 05:38 PM

what i think is that those wheels dont match the car and should be given to me....

7dust 03-22-08 05:44 PM

Honestly the white interior is Ricer-ific!

Fail - but hey if you like it... I guess you like it.

gxl90rx7 03-22-08 07:54 PM

i think it looks stupid with the black carpet. now if you replaced it will some white carpet, painted the rest of it white, including seats, that would be badass

TOOSHORT_88 03-23-08 04:15 AM

My car is on jack stands in the front and the rear is jacked up so i could get access to the wheel well. The rims are as good as gone, I orderd a set of AME SHALLEN CX from auto rnd, takes 3 months to get ,

Hypertek 03-23-08 11:41 AM

the rims are hot!

but im not sure those rims are enough to save this car with the molded kit and interior.
at least you coulda sold your real GP sports kit and bought a fakie to mold in and still had left over money. Looks like your kit fit perfect too no flaws.

dude this was alreadysick,, imagine just dropped on your new AMEs woulda been sexy

was the car flat white? was it spray caned? im somewhat interested how it was done

RockLobster 03-23-08 11:46 AM

Not my cup as far as a white interior. But i can see you are taking your time and doing some very nice work.
