well still kinda a crappy day so you can't see the pearl tomuch but here is the almost finished product, the reason i say almost finished is because it still needs to be buffed out. the paint guy told me to come back in a week. but here are a few pics !

 

had to drop the intercooler a few inches to fill the new "mouth"

 

i think i am going to end up leaving the headlight cavities red
what do you guy's think?

 

you can see some pearl in this shot as well as the fender flare

 

Oh my god that's sweeeeeet!!! CRAP!! I like the rolled fenders too. Man oh man...

You aren't going to put any type of spoiler on?

 

one more close up of the flare, if the day gets nicer i will see if i can pop off some sun shots!

 

eh is that what I think it is parked next to yours

 

ahh yep the skyline is the old lady's car

 

Yo,


Dude, it looks schweet. About the headlights, bro, it's one of those tough things. Right now it looks like a 360 Modena, 'cause they leave the headlight surrounds body color. The only way you could really see if it looked better painted a dark color would be to use black masking tape, or electrical tape, or something to kind of rig that up. Maybe do one side, then close one eye, then open the other and see what side you think is cooler...*grin* Hey, does your car have a sunroof? Just curious.

PS: Lookin' good!

PSS: We all hate you! *grin*

 

that looks great man. allthough i think it could use some type of a spoiler. i think the stock turbo2 spoiler would look good on it.

 

Yo,


I found a pic of the FC2000 front end with black headlight surrounds:

you silly americans are entirely to hung up on the wing thing. i had all the stock holes and antenna holes filled in when it got painted i hate the stock ones, but i am getting one just take alittle while i like the new c-west or cusco one but it is carbon fiber and runs about 1300 beans

 

soul assassin,

Does this help??

Black


Silver:


Stock:

 

damn thats pretty cool that would have taken me years to do!
i think i am going to stick with the red, becausee i guess you have to see it to understand what i mean but the pearl in it makes it look good, plus everyone paints theres black i have to be different

 

You could always paint it very dark red as well

 

or maybe you could paint it pearl blue!

 

Yo Soul,


About the wing thing: I think you should keep it naked, since you're goin' for the different approach. I know that the wingless FC in Japan is pretty hip though (At least in the Option Vids I've seen), so you might have to put a wing on to be different! *grin*

Do you have any pics or URL's of the ones you're thinking of? We'll do a poll on 'em!! *grin*

Good job on you're FC. You Military out there or teaching English? Pimpin' mad ho's? Er, geisha's? *grin*

That is one amazing car! That is a beautiful red color, and the body kit is sweet. Is there any way you can get a closer picture of the hood? I'm thinking of having a custom hood made like that eventually. Where is the hood opening placed over the engine? I think the headlights look awesome like that... and I also think they look retarded painted black! So don't listen to them =). Your car is clean AND agressive... I love it!

That shot where you can see the pearl is friggin' SWEET! That color is so badass. The fender flares look VERY tasteful as well. Damn, I'm jealous. If the car was mine, i'd paint behind the headlight glass black, and put on a spoiler, but its your damn car, and it looks sweet right now anyway, so nevermind me.

 

is that a pikachu i see on the dash... i have the same pikachu sititn in my car.. matches the yellow.

wing wing wing.. silly americans.. i didnt say get a rice wing, just a tasteful one!

scott

 

well lemme see if i can answer everyone
yes that is my lucky pikachu on the dash don't make fun off him or he will whoop your ***
i wish i had my camera last nite when the cops were searching my car they has the high intesitiy lights outt here and the paint job looked so fat! i wil still try to get some of it changing colors still a crappy day today
i wil take some close up pics of the hood and post them tonite for those who were interested. the opening is right in front of the altenator
i will get a poll going on the wing thing also because i am getting one just need to be sure it is the ONE ya know what i mean?
well till later
peace
and thanks for all the compliments!

 

yo alf, why did cops search your car? was it too cool for em?

 

Let's see - cops + ULTRA RED car + exotic look + young driver + "I can't drive 55" = yer' @$$ is grass.

 

NO WING !!!!
