I only applied 2 coats for those pictures. I think I did one coat of Z-5 and one coat of Z-2.

 

now thats my goal....
long way to go

 

mmmmontego bluuuuuuueee

 

Major props on your car man. It's always been one of my favorites!

Do you have any high res versions of those pics? They are begging to be desktops...

 

let me add mine to the list of praises ...

i LOVE your car!

 

Do you got any closer pic`s of the real 99 spec tail lights?

I want to see the differense

 

The only close one I have is after I went through a tank of 110 leaded and had a lot of residue on my bumper.

 

Yeah, I have 5 megapixel versions of all of those. If you want to send me a PM with the filename of the one you want (zainoX.jpg) with your e-mail, I'll send it to you.

 

Very nice.. (Insert all the other comments about smooth clean etc etc..)

Nice ride.

 

You should make a short vid-clip of your car in motion...

 

newbie question and all I need is a quick answer...what's the real difference between our 93-95 tail lights and 99 spec lights?

 

93 is square-like, 99 is round.

 

^^agreed

and pianoprodigy's FD is amazing, this thread should be stickied

 

Haha. Might as well call it stickied. Only way this thread will die is if it gets closed. Pianoprodigy's FD is too nice!

 

i just got inspired to go with those rims for my b-day present.

 

So clean, simple, but yet agressive! It's how 7's should look.

 

What FMIC is that? It really adds to the front look of the 99 spec bumper..

 

^^^ very true statment

 

What springs/shocks are you using? That ride height looks optimal.

Great looking car.

 

yes, thats why this thread gets bumped every week..the FD is just pure perfect lol

 

You mention that it was painted recently. I have dents and dings I need to fix also. Aside from those areas, the paint is in perfect condition. I am worried that they will not be able to match this montego blue color very well. Aside from that, it is green in the sun and blue in the shade, I dont think they will ever be able to duplicate that. Were you reluctant to get this paint done? It looks great in the pics, but does the new paint job really stack up to the original?

thx
