My new FC3S project
You sir, have the nicest pulled stock front fenders i have EVER seen. EVER.
So good that it's over. Damn dood! Congrads.
Question, what is that light blue filler you're using for future reference? It looks like it levels well. I had good results with 3m brand glazing compound (the red stuff, air harden) but i had to work the the **** out of it and would not use it again in the future. I use long and short strand glass for re-shaping/filling dents and glaze with bondo. Bondo and "self leveling" do not work in the same sentence.
Thank you.
Your car looks A-MAZ-ING! Top notch work!

Thank you,
That stuff is called Z grip made by Evercoat, it's another type of bondo. The key is not to let the bondo dry all the way before you start sanding it. You have to sand it while it is semi soft so it will be alot easier.

Changing the color of my wheels
So I want to paint my wheels because they have a lot of chips on them and I was thinking of either painting them the same gray color or gold. I want to know what you guys think and I need other color suggestions as well.
same grey, no gold.
If it were me I would sell the t2 lip on the forum, use the money to buy a Cf one, get a cf rear diffuser as well and you would be ballin.

Thank you, I actually saw a picture of someones white FC here on the forum with bright green rims, I think they look really nice. I just have'nt decided on the color yet i'll keep that in mind though.

cf lip and rear diffuser would totally complete the look. i think you should paint your rims the same color, or bronze would look killer, gold and white is too overplayed imo, and i think bright colored painted rims make me think its a kids car trying to look like a drifter. i also think bright colored rims would kill the clean look you have and attract unwanted police attention.
great job on all the body work, great looking finished product.

Around $3,500 installed. That was the complete engine transmission and a complete rear end.

Very clean FC build man! I love how white looks on the FC!
As for painting your WORK's...I don't know. You will have to take your time and do some photobucket editing with color changes to get a good contrasting wheel color.
Maybe a silver but a dark siver...not gun metal but like a pewter maybe??
Anyway great job on the fenders and car in general!!
