well worth the 100+ hours invested.

**don't worry, door jams are getting painted with the exterior once i start prepping the body thus the overspray on it.***

Guess it seems silly to paint stuff that can't be seen. Knuckles looks rad tho.

You're talking to the same guy who's first crack at intercooler piping resembled what you would find under your kitchen sink.

There's no reasoning behind it. He just DOES. That's respectable. Buckey, cage is sweet.

Yea the "steel" rusto wheel paint is perfect base for candy and the HOK umf02 is the **** for making candy pop.

My spindles are the ****! I love em cuz I made them myself and they get mad angle. You need wayy negative offsets to clear **** with these. Pretty soon I will be making chromolly LCA's with heim joints and bearings. What up

WORD! i spaced mine like an inch, and i'm still rubbings ****. i need longer tie rods, a longer heim joint shank (whatever thing) and more spacings. Shine Auto needs to make a 50mm front fender. real talk. i'm max'd camber, DMAX/SuperNOW spaced out tie rods, and still have more angle to get with my spindles. the ratio lock to lock is way faster. some aggressive flips are coming soon.

If I decide to stay white, I'm either going with Lexus Starfire Pearl. Or I'll be doing a championship white with a large flake (blue/purple/gold/green) not really sure yet. I guess it depends what color I'll be painting my wheels/roll cage. Like if I paint my wheels and roll cage purple, I'll probably do a big gold flake.
