For $1500 they fuck up your nice wheels. Definitely worth the price.

UPDATE: So I have gone to Bodywerks 2x since my last post to check progress. On Saturday, the car was fully primered as were all the other parts. Jose (Owner) had his paint body guy straightening out the fiberglass parts and smoothing out the little imperfections on the kit. On my visit yesterday, i found the shell, hood and sideskirts were painted but not finished. It has a bit of orange peel but was told that it needed another phase to get most of it out.


All in all the paint shines. I mean its not buffed yet and it shines bright as hell so I'm excited to see the finished product. The rest of the stuff will be painted tonight since I am messing with black accents on certain parts of the car. Here are some pics for your enjoyment...

Almost there... just over 3 weeks and counting before Seven Stock... I'll be cutting it real close...

PS: Decided to keep the emblems...going for a more retro look :icon_tup:

Orange peel? shouldn't the wet sand take care of that on the last coat of clear?

Yeah they're going over that today. It was literally sprayed the night before and needs to be gone over once more to lessen the orange peel

RoTorYRooKiE 09-01-09 11:18 AM

pix are lookin good, i'd have to see it in person...maybe at one of Jaime's meets or bbqs. Jose might just be getting more work.

DivinDriver 09-01-09 11:18 AM

Damn, Eddie, that's going to look nice...

How long they gonna recommend you wait before you can wax it?

Thanks! Actually I have no clue. I'll ask him today. He used a 2 stage paint from Toyota I think so it was good quality stuff.


BTW... here are pics of his cars that I promised... sorry Nil LOL

He painted the lips on the lips on the wheels on the white car...looks amazing...and the cage!

TE72's are so so sexy haha, also. if you're gonna keep the single exhaust why you didn't have them patch up the hole for the other exhaust? :scratch: just curious

Yeah those cars are pretty sweet. Especially the white one since it got a full Audi interior retro fitted :icon_tup:

I'm actually working on a paint scheme for the red one. I'm thinking black and red somehow...


As for the rear bumper... I cant cover the other opening...it would look weird. Besides, I might swap the exhaust to the other side someday

Adam P 09-01-09 03:09 PM

OMG LOL SO GAY!!!...looks like TJ whore butthole...

frijolee 09-01-09 03:30 PM

I like it Eddie. I think you're going to be cutting it close with only three weeks to scrub out your engine bay to match!

Can't help but notice there's still no hood pics. Guess you have to show up with some surprises ehh?

Yeah I didnt want a pearl white or an off white... I just wanted something that would be bright and shiny.

As for hood pins... Well the hood is sturdy and the latch is fine so I'll use it. But.... there will be Lots O' Surprises :icon_tup:
