you need a turbo. fuck rims...dont care for the dodge viper racing stripes thingy..but whatever floats your boat. and why do you have hoodpins on a stock hood? I like being honest unlike some people on this board. your car is 'ok'.. i'd give it a 6 outta 10. and no my car isn't great. i'd give my car a 1 outta 10 for being such a pain in the ass to work on.

Hey at least your honest. i"m cool with that, I would personally give it a 5 out of 10 on a good day, cause I have so many things I want to do to it including:
Cosmetically: 1. new paint job 2. rims and 1.5-2 inch drop 3. drift front bumper with Blitz sides and rear bumper 4. gtr style spoiler 5. new carbon fibre hood (VIS Invader) 6. Leather Seats
Internally: 1. HRC Stage 2 kit 2. a little N2O action 2. Manual tranny swap 3. Greddy evo exhaust
and all that other good shit like cams, P&P jobs on the intake and exhaust mani's, 60mm TB, blah blah blah.. the list could go on for ages
Unfortunately I'm just a poor Missourian bitch..... Someday when I have the money to blow, my car will be badass. someday....

The chevy bowtie on the cav in your driver side mirror threw me off for a minute. I was like WTF. But I like the black yellow theme...the wide stripes are a bit much but the interior looks cool. My car is dark green and I'm going to and do have some yellow accent's...idunno I think it looks cool:thumbsup

d00d, I hope I don't sound like a dick or anything but your car is so F-U-B-A-R imo. That thing would be so hard/expensive/time consuming to make it look good to me. But as long as you like it its all good. BTW, run your wires through the fire wall d00d.

hey i remember having 14" rims, cut him some slack, he's just getting started. The interior is nice.

54666, RE: Check it out... First Pics of my car What do you think?? Posted by Phaxmohdem, Aug-07-03 05:32 AM
on the interior I used White Krylon primer, followed by a few layers of "Sun Yellow" Krylon spray paint, and this badass Krylon crystal glaze shit that makes it shiny as glass. The pictures dont do it a justice really. Highly recommend it.

54667, RE: Check it out... First Pics of my car What do you think?? Posted by NappyEclipse, Aug-07-03 06:37 AM
The interior looks great! How many coats of that krylon crystal glaze did you put...And they sell that stuff at walmart? I painted my interior white and used duplicolor clear coat and the finish sux...I want it to be shiny like yours...Mad props on the work you've done so far.

54671, RE: Check it out... First Pics of my car What do you think?? Posted by Phaxmohdem, Aug-07-03 08:04 AM
I used 2 coats of the krylon clear coat. I'm not sure what constitutes a coat though. I sprayed the stuff on until it was think enough that a hazy color formed in the clear coat. once the cloudy look was attained I let it sit overnight in my garage and by morning it came out looking like glass. Pretty sweet.
Yeah the stuf fis available at my local wally world anyway. I was looking at the duplicolor stuff, when I looked at the very tiop of the shelf and found a couple cans of this stuff. It was a little pricier, ($2.90) a can but it was worth every penny IMO.

Yea your interior is great. Oh yea InvaznGST you have my favorite car on these forums. I wanted black but I got red instead. :( I sometimes think about painting my interior I dunno tho.

54682, RE: Check it out... First Pics of my car What do you think?? Posted by DR1665, Aug-07-03 09:40 AM
I think it looks koo man. :thumbsup
I too used to have 14" rims, but then Uber sold the Enkeis he bought from run4cvr to ajna_star and he told me to give them back. :( Now I still have 14s, but they're the ones that hide behind hubcaps. I like em tho.
A trick you could try until you get rollers is to maybe paint those wheels black. I think it would give your car a tougher, more aggressive look. IMO. ;)
Keep up the hard work. :thumbsup
