OMG, that is one MEAN *** lookin' FD. As for the rest of comments, keep her like you like her. Good job dude.

 

[QUOTE=GreenMean937]ok farhan ... goddamm .. your **** is off the hook .... i wish i had your exterior my engine and in white pearl.. then i think i would be 100% done ... but damm your **** is like shhow quality ... damm my car gets tons of attention from girls ... i can only imagine how your does in the ***** meter ...


and a Efini enblem would look great ... i think im starting on all exterior mods .. so wait and see my progress... im thinking 99 spec front r1 CB lip pettit rear flares with monster 19 x11" rims and a carbon fiber rear defuser and those bad *** siple side skirts in CB.. dont know who makes themQUOTE]

Thanks man! The plan is actually to start entering shows once it's done. I'll post pics when I finally finish with the car (2-3 months). I've never had any problems getting girls, even without the car, but for damn sure the car gets a LOT of attention, most appreciated some not (Cops).

I agree that the efini emblems will look really good. With Petitt flares I believe you can go even wider than 11", something more like 12-13"s. I'm actually going to be running 19x11" in the rear and thats with only a 1 inch increase in width in the rear. I believe the Petitt fender flares are much more. Oh and btw I actually went with a CF rear diffusor and CF Feed side skirts (which I think you're referring to). You got some taste my man .

Goodluck with everything, I know I can't wait until I get my single.

 

I'm also attempting to do everything at the same time (body, performance, suspension, interior, ect, ect). I was hoping to have it done by next summer but, with a new baby on the way, I may be delayed some. It's been years since I drove my own FD and I'm getting tired of looking at an almost empty shell.

 

DAYM! I would probably cry if I wasn't able to drive my car for one year, much less several. Don't get me wrong my cars been done for months at a time and considering I don't drive it in winter and I live in Chicago it already sucks. I definitely feel for you man. Goodluck with your car as well. I LOVE seeing nicely modded FD's----they've always and will probably continue to be one of my ALL time favorite cars .

 

You have a very nice setup. That bumper mod looks mean!

 

Finally someone who has there car modded all to ****...And doesnt have a body kit, spoiler, bumper, hood with a thousand vents, etc, etc...I love the clean half *** stocker look...Your car looks very clean..Mad props!!!

 

Looks like a lot of money and hard work went into that setup. Very nice looking, and a sincere Thank You for not ricing the car out. Good job

 

thanks guys ... i apriciate all the compliments ...i have worked really hard ... and ive easily put more money in the car than the cost of the actual car .... im far from done and im planing on alot of ther things...almost all the work on it was done by me .. and when it gets painted and gets the body work i will also do it myself ...


farhan i guess we do like the same things ... ive never had problems getting the girls but becuase of the car i have to carry a bat .. just to beat all the ugly ones off ha ha but on the real you got exactly what im looking for in mods.. how much you think you got into the exterior ...

oh here are another pic of the bumper and side view

 

goodfellas thanks .. every time i think of cleans 7s i always think of yours as well as a nother few in this forum.. so it means alot ... thanks again everyone ...

 

LoL.....yah with the uglies I tend to drive off very fast or kind of just brush them aside. I also have dark tints so rolling up with the window has also come in handy a couple times .

If I include the new wheels that will be put on I'd say I was over $22,000.00 easily. The wheels and tires themselves retail for $9000.00, but I'm getting a GREAT deal. The engine will probably have a little less than $20,000.00 once I'm done. Before everyone gets carried away thinking I'm spoiled, I actually payed for EVERY single modification done on this car myself. The car was bought for me as a gift by my parents, but from then on its been all me .

I REALLY need showcar insurance and if you don't have it I would suggest you go the same route.

 

i know i gues its hard for people to belive that we paid for everything ourselfs...or were dumb to spend soooo much god dammm money on a car thats worth have of the mods !!!. you prob have a good job hhuh ?? well i didnt ive only worked durring smmer im still in college right now and money that was funding my project during school was any cars i was painting .... and during the summer .. construction 11 to 12 hours a day ... but i didnt mind... made like 12 k in a summer ....

**** i can even afford the insurane now .. iguess i sort of have a bad record stae farms wants 598 $ for full coverage ..... damm 22K and 9K for the wheels what are they .. i remebr i was like inches from buys some hres 19 x11 and 19x8 for like 6K and i was like nope ... the rims i got on the car now were only like 380$ there so cheap brand and thas the only place ive gone cheap .....

how much money went in to the body work and paint .. just labor and not parts ...remeber i get a bigggg break since i paint cars woo hooo!!

 

I've been working for the past 4-5 years, very steady job and going to school at the same time. I'm just about to graduate in 2 weeks and then about 4 more years of schooling for me. The thing is my parents DEFINITELY help me out. I don't have any real expenses aside from my own daily ones and so most of what I have I can use as I wish. Also, almost every year for one month's worth of I guess you can consider work I get paid $5000.00 cash. All these things help me fund my project and I'm by no means broke or in debt or frugal with other expenses. I tend to enjoy everything, but my car's my passion.

The rims and tires as a set retail for $9000.00, but I'm getting a really good deal on them. The rims themselves cost $7500.00 retail. I'm going with Kinesis K59R's painted the same custom color as my car. I'm getting them in 19x10 in the front and 19x11 in the rear. The tires are very expensive and retail for a good set (I'm looking in to Michelin Pilot PS2) is around $1600.00. I plan on running 265's in the front and 315's in the rear. So that explains how that total comes about.

As far as the bodywork and paint cost, I would say I'm at $6000.00-7000.00. I really want to learn how to paint so I could paint my own cars if I ever wanted. I guess that's something to look forward to in the future when I can afford my own paint booth and supplies.

Hey man, have you considered show car insurance for your ride because I also have state farm for insurance and I don't think they'll cover all the mods unless they have some sort of proof. Besides, I'd like to get my car insured for the value of the car with everything on it and from what I'm told show car insurance is the way to go for this. Plus no emissions .

 

yeah i would like to look in to that insurance .... wait no emissions?? like smog and **** ??? damm im hella in if that the case ....

damm thats exactly the smae set up in rims in tire but i really think im going with the HREs what color is the car ??
paint is easy .. well actually its allllooooot of work .... its all in the prep .. if the prep and body work are done perfect the paint will be perfect .. i started off doing hondas like 5 or 6 of them ... and all of them riced out fucked up with shaved everything .... so i was never really too happy about what they look like .. still ricers.. ha ha

yeah my parent help plenty too .. and im broke even when i have alot of money .. ill save for what i need and then not waste non of it until i have the money ... my car is also my passion .... but i love to race so... im usually spending all my money time building the dam car to go fast for 1,320 feet ....and always breaking stuff... someday ill build a show car but im not sure when ... you got any more pics of your car in the shop ???

 

Yup, from what I was told if your car is registered as a "show car" then emissions standards no longer apply. I really need this considering the difficulty I went through even getting a waiver for a year.

Anyways, here's a couple pics of my car in the shop. It'll still be another 2-3 weeks before I get it back.





Oh and I'm painting the car a metallic black - lots of pearls and lots of flakes .

 

Oh and don't mind the fitment in the second pic, the fenders didn't fit properly, so I'm getting a new set.

 

The car looks good. The bumper looks like it should been done like that.

 

sadly I do not think I'll own an FD in my next 2 years of higheschool......... damn the immage that must make on other teenagers...... no one's gonna know what the hell is so special about my FC .

 

Fc are sick too .. i almost bought a turbo one last summer dude wanted 300 $ for it but ... i was too into my car to spend money on anything else ....

thanks mr international

farhan ... what kind of rear flares are those ??and the front fender are fiber glass .... oh yeah about the rear flares are they cut out or there just or show ???
