You need to wetsand your jam
the whole car is purple you ****.

once i get overfenders it'll get wet sanded and more paint

cuz people always complain about putting pistons in a 7 and the whining doesnt stop.


its a black base with prizm purple and rainbo flake mix. in certain light it looks hella purple but when it gets darker outside the rainbo pops out.
but im spraying the outside nothing but black magic flake and leaving it stock body lol


single stages arent that bad...specially from tcpglobal. i get all my stuff there except for the flake.
honestly....harbor freight $15 guns shoot just as good as $200-300 guns....
everytime i do a car, i buy to HF guns and throw them away once im done

Where do you guys get the spacers for the back, because I can't even mount my wheels when they are spaced? RE TurboII, amazing job!

are you trying to use slip on or bolt on spacers? sounds like your using a slip on in which you prolly need extended lug studs. if its bolt on its kinda like just putting your wheel on the hub like it wasn't there

yeah ill take some right now. im still having trouble with the fronts. still wanna lower the front just a bit but everytime i lower it the collar for the spring hits the wheel and im already at 8mm in spacers and dont want it any farther out so i keep stiffening the spring and its getting too stiff but w/e lol i already maxed out the rear


after putting the sticker in....im gonna have to adjust it hahaha thats are far as i could get the sticker in. the other side is CC status tho grrrrr
ill **** with it more once the car is on the lift...probly pull it just a little bit on each side yet and take the pull in less so its more flush

sorry for the big pics....damn iphones




^^^my fav. think this side is pretty much where i want it to be^^

Rattle can is the ****.


It's ALL prep work and being able to handle a spraycan.

Did you spray it in sections or bomb the whole car and recoat while the paint was still tacky (mad speed/skill)?

And **** maaco.
