Holy shit! I still remember when it was a completely gutted shell.
I saw you and Ray working on it not but a few weeks ago, looks like you've done some serious work! Awesome job, mad props! |
Thanks...it's going to the body shop of Monday for the rest of the paint and 99spec stuff...
hope it all turns out well! |
here is some update photos...
here is the IBM paint and the shop doing a good job at pulling everything off to paint the nooks and crannies... http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/40ad4...qRVrABNHVyWwxb http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/40ad4...qRVrABZBv35t2Z http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/40ad4...qRVrABEult4iUm |
and some more with the hood, doors, hatch, and side markers in place...

The wing and the front should be on by tomorrow and ready for me to pickup. The paint does look great...he said that it should be even better as they still need to buff it, so it will look even shinier!!!:D |
IBM my favorite color. Great!
|
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! :mad:
|
eh crap anyone else not getting all the pictures to load???
here is a link to my photoalbum http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/wan...=/d713&.src=ph |
It looks nice & all, but what wheels?? :)
|

Like you know I plan to get 20 in spinners with -10 offset so they stick out from the car:D Seriously, I have no idea. Got any suggestions? |

they do some nice work there.

Get some Volk Gram Light 57pro's gunmetal
|
Hey Bob - Haven't paid much attention to wheels lately.
Like the idea of the volk gram light 57pro's - don't know about gunmetal though. Polished rims with your color car look great IMO. These look pretty good too.. http://www.importhookup.com/wheelopt...olk_gt7_gm.jpg |
Car looks great but all that money spent and still the stock emblems? I think you should get some of the newer style mazda emblems to go with that newer style conversion.
|
nice!!
the ic duct come with the intercooler? or can you get it alone? if so, where? |
That question was asked earlier...
its the ASP medium fiberglass duct covered with carbon fiber. Maybe some of the guys who are around doing CF fabrication will make a full CF version. |
Damn! Things move so slow.
But the car is finally back in the garage. Still have to finish the interior and break the engine in. Put brakes on after getting new wheels (still ruminating on that one) and the Mettalit cat. http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/users/40ad4...woO5ABtxmZxkyh |
Its hard to see in the pic but the front lip has a carbon fiber overlay
|
nice fd...is that your m3 also?
|

Nice!!!!!

You are so close! It looks great. I'm looking forward to seeing it next time I'm in Dallas. Let me know next time you come to the Houston area.
Wheel suggestions: Advan Siena Generation II (like on my car) Work VS-XX (not chrome, silver or gold spoked) Advan TC2 http://gruppe-s.com/Advan/advantc2.htm Gram Light 57pro http://gruppe-s.com/Volk/gl57p.htm Chris |
Chris,
I'm still waffling on which wheels even after the poll in the suspension section... anyways here a an updated pic where you can see the CF front lip... https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=66612 |
