Dltreezan 06-01-03 09:58 PM

yeah i saw urs and i was inspired so ima keep trying and then if it goes well and i make a few copies out of fiberglass to sell then i can fund a headlight kit.....but it looks kinda crappy now with no primer or anything but ima keep charging

Dltreezan 06-01-03 11:48 PM

ima try this pic one more time

Bigretardhead 06-01-03 11:49 PM

the one pic that showed up looks great! especially if it were in fiberglass or CF!!

I'll take one when you're done :) as long as it's not TOO costly, and as long as its not too heavy. ;)

EDIT: another pic just showed up. it again looks great! how about a pic from the side?

Dltreezan 06-01-03 11:55 PM

you guys should see this thing from the drivers seat....talk about sick...i cant wait to get it primered and up so you guys can get a better picture

Dltreezan 06-01-03 11:57 PM

hey big retard im going for fiberglass and i want to make some bux but im not gonna rape people....i want people with nice looking sevens so im shooting for the 400 range...considering people sell front lips for 300 a peice and ive seen the price of others then i know my price is good...and yes i wanna do fiberglass to keep it light.....i might decide to sell my prototype but this thing is nuts heavy....so guys wait till i get some pics up with the primer and maybe some mesh...so let me know if ur interested....and after a few sales ill move to my next project

Dltreezan 06-02-03 12:11 AM

heres from the side...i have a few more pics to put up soon

Jaared 06-02-03 12:22 AM

looks good tho
jaared

Dltreezan 06-02-03 12:39 AM

hey thanx for the compliments....all the other stuff besides the obvious liquids are going to be kept out by wire mesh....im still not close to being done with finishing it up....have to at least get a coat of some kind of paint so i can put some uniform pics up...this is an update to my other post i put up a few weeks back......and about the rain will i designed it to where anything falling thru is going to fall right down in front of the shrowd and wont hit the motor or anything..ill show some pics soon...its right in the empty space between the fan shroud and the front of the motor and all the belts.....more pics soon

frestylereaction 06-02-03 02:17 AM

ill be interested keep me up to date frestylereaction@yahoo.com

and back up ur statement about how it looks from inside by giving us a pic!!!!

frestylereaction 06-02-03 02:19 AM

also...it fits onto the stock TMIC or is it meant for NA / FMIC

BLUE TII 06-02-03 02:26 AM

That would be perfect for me! I think ~$500 would be a great price if the quality was decent- I mean, you have to make some $$ right.

And if you have a mold you should offer CF for $100-200 more for all the "ricers" :)

Dltreezan 06-02-03 02:27 AM

ahhhhh i just got the primer on so i could see it clean and MAN it looks way sicker than my nasty photos i just posted!!.....but its gonna be until tomorow until i get those new photos up so ill just post some old ones from this evening so guys please these photos do not do this justice u can still see all the different colored stuff from beneath, wait till i get some primered pics up......quitre a difference :doughboy:

frestylereaction 06-02-03 02:30 AM

awesome....any answer to my question tho? if it fits ill be interested...think you could have it done before 6/25

Dltreezan 06-02-03 03:50 AM

aight guys im all excited now but the only problem is the crapy pics that YOU guys are happy with but i put a crap coat of primer and now it looks even a thousand times better hell in the pics i have u cant even see the lines and it looks decent now im lookin at the thing and i cant even beleive that i made it...so yes i have pics inside and u can see my buddies marlboros in the reflection....but to answer a few questions and to ask a few......can somone show me how to post these pics in the thread...and to answer this is made for a stock NA or FMIC...BUT....i dont think it would be very hard once i have one in fiberglass to modify it for a TII...only difference would be that the curves on the inside wouldnt be there...the hood would go all the way across the top and then about an inch or so from where the placement is now on the curve before the vent it would have a much more aggressive incline which i think would also look sick in its own right...and yes i think once i have made and sold one or two i can have urs done before the 25th, it shouldnt be a problem and it will be a hell of a lot easier to do once i have one to play with in fiberglass than this steel hood that weighs 1000lbs....and BlueTII im not gonna sell it for 500 ima sel it for $400...im trying to make some dough so i can get married but at the same time this is my own form of self expression.....i guess like art to me...some people sculpt naked ladies, yet i decide to sculpt RX7s.......much more pristine and beautiful...plus naked ladies cant throw you around a curve at 80 miles an hour and still stick to the road :)-

Dltreezan 06-02-03 03:55 AM

backin it up...crappy pic....cant see much...but it makes the headlights at night look much nicer...it all flows tight.....i was sitting at the drive thru at Mcdonalds just staring at it....more pics that will do it justice to come soon:D

1987RX7guy 06-02-03 03:59 AM

very nice man how long till you have a finished product in CF or fiber glass?

That price sounds very appealing :D
