Excellent job painting the the underside of the dash and the panels around the center console.. I love that color blue. Your car is deff one of my favorites but I liked it better with the OEM hood than the Invader

I dunno but I kinda liked it better with the OEM cf hood...and why tenzo r seats instead of sparco???

Uh cause they're fucking seats man. Unless Sparco has devloped a hybrid seat that can give you road head while you drive, why not the tenzos. They look exactly the same minus the extra 800 dollars that you would pay for the sparco "foam memory".

no i think the cars beautiful im just sick of reading a thread that has a billion replies that all the say the same thing x(

your car is badass! but i gotta say the OEM CF hood does look better than that one. and still say go with a blue VC. you've got enough chrome in that engine bay anyway

You're just a fag, that's all. No one will ever like your car... not because its ugly... but because you drive it.

Eat my boogers.

whats the code for that color blue?

Yea man nice fucking ride of course.

ok check it out... I went with this hood because I needed something a little different on the out side, ya know just to change it up a bit. I was a little sceptical at first too but it's kinda growing on me... Im still just trying something... I still have the other hood, actually it's right here in my room :) And I went witht he Tenzo seats because I got a really good deal on them... I paid 275 for both with brackets BRAND NEW!! My buddy is a rep for Tenzo and someone put a deposit down for them but never picked them up. SoOoOoOo... I got them for REAL cheap :) I'm thinking about selling them and getting Sparco's just because of the name like everyone else :nuts I could get some coil overs also if I wanted for like $50... I think their maxspeed or something?? but I havnt heard anything about them so I told him I'd think about it.

oh lol... and I just turned 25... I'm not rich.... not even close ;( My house is no were NEAR the size of those houses in my pictures.... but if it was.... I wouldn't just have pics of my Eclipse.. Id have pics of my 12 sec G35, 360 Modena, and GSXR 1000... oh wait... I'll have pics of my GSXR 1000 in a few weeks :D

Car looks great man - Id love to see it in person - maybe the Shootout?

sounds awesome dude, im drolling over your car but especially that DVD stero thing. I got a question, can you take it off easily like when you leave your car or something and hide it so thieves back off and stuff so it doesnt look like anything is there cause Id feel uneasy leaving that with a giant monitor sticking there.

the monitor folds in if i am correct.

yeah, I read about it online. its really really awesome

dood...your car is concentrated sex in a can IMO. It even has that lil "born on" date on teh bottom.

I liked the OEM CF hood better though...this one is damn nice too...but i am an OEM style fan :shrug

That hood is fucking stupid. Keep it stock. (see: sarcasm)

(hard to be original in the DSM world huh?)

(looks good by the way ;) )

Ya, it looks like this when the screen is not out....



And the only thing that I'm not liking bout my OEM CF hood is that its a cheap one. FI gave it to me in a hurry so I could make it on a TV Show and they made it all fast and crapy. SOoOoOoOo it's not the best looking hood anymore. The sun faded off the gel coat and parts of the hood look like crap... so I have to get another OEM CF hood if I want that look. Cause I don't want that hood back on my car. I'll take pics of it and if anyone still wants it for CHEAP!!! Then I'll sell it to you.

dibs on the hood, how much you looking to get. I sent you an email a while back about it about a week. let me know how much. PS you should allready have my email address, i sent you some before showing the blue interior and shit. Thanks.

Chris

i sent you a PM, super super itnerested ;)

Is FI one of your sponsors?

If not, I've had great luck with both hoods I've had from Vis, so check them out.

And just in case you didn't notice, I was only kidding about your hood (see: sig)

Cereal5 ... I know you were just kidding lol... I have never done this before cause I do NOT like people who copy each other but there aren't that many choices on CF hoods especially CF hoods for our car, and your car was the one that inspired me to get this one, yours and that red one with the chin spoiler like I have. They really sold me.

And I do have a VIS hood, cause FI takes for ever. and ya... their my sponsers lol... but I don't like to represent companies that I'm not happy with... ya know...

and before everyone says they want my hood let me post pics of it first cause of whats wrong with it. it's not show quality anymore, but that's the only thing wrong with it. Its just a little faded... you'll see in the pics.

dude...your car is like sex on wheels. But there is one thing distracted me from the rest of the interior....any reason why you haven't shortened that shiffter yet? Goodness I can't believe mine was that long when I bought it...LOL

Oh so that is a VIS? damn that's some shoddy business. Bitch about it IMO, they're decent with customer service from what I've experienced.

Your car is sick. We inspire each other *tear*

I'm declaring us 2GNT gods. Even though you're not a 2gnt. So uhhh you can be the god of toasters.

Cereal5: I love your car. the bodykit looks like it belongs.

I AM THE GOD..... OF..... TOASTERS!!!!!
I AM THE GOD..... OF..... TOASTERS!!!!!
I AM THE GOD..... OF..... TOASTERS!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!:cheers

lol....

Dude... your body kit does look like it belongs though!!!

I'm not really feelin' the hood, but your car is KILLER! What kind of suspension are you setup on? What kind of wheel gap do you have? How is the ride quality.

soooo what did you end up doing with your black leather seats

/scavenger

I have Sportline springs and Tokico struts... I don't know the gap off the top of my head but I would have to say about.... half an inch all around from tire to fender? I don't rub at all though, and the ride is GREAT!! I'm happy with it.

And currently my leather seats are sitting wrapped in bubble wrap in my garage, but I don't believe I am going to sell them. sorry.

chop the shifter IMO....like down by 3" or so. i love your car except for your stock mack truck shifter. other than that....great :bowdown 99gsbb

Car still looks SICK :) Yah to be honest I perfer the OEM hood look also on your car, mostly because it was what it was wearing when I fell in love with the first time I saw it lol. Anyway its nice to see you posting pix of your progress hehe.. I haven't been checking the board for a while but omghi2sexycar! Can't wait to see what you do to it in the future.

lol... I'm gonna get a short shifter... I believe they come with shorter posts ontop of making the throw shorter... but I'd rather not CUT the one I have, but until I do now I'm going to be all self concious about my "MACK TRUCK SHIFTER" lol....

and THANK YOU!!! for the compliment!! hopefully within the next few months there's going to be some major changes :) Pics comming soon....

You had the best 2g I ever seen until you ruined it with the invader hood :(

I disagree I like it. :) Looks familiar too. :)
(1st 2GNTer to own invader hood imo)

ok check it out..... I'm thinking about switching back to the OEM hood... but this is what I think about it... the Invader hood is actually functional. These types of hoods were invented to disipate the heat from the turbo much more quickly then the stock hood, a hood without a vent. So it's actually functional... their not just cosmetic. So the hood actually has a purpose, and to some... does not look bad.

So the question is... should I go with something that is actually functional and worth having... OR..... should I have the OEM look, which to some is much better looking? I'm like 50/50 right now!?!?!?!!!

I have thought the same thing and cant decide which hood to purchase. The invader hood which will give weight reduction and let hot air out the engine bay or get a OEM one and just have less weight. One question, how much weight reduction is a carbon fiber hood to a stock one including the adding of hood pins. (Stock hood 50lbs - Carbon Fiber hood 20lbs?)

But yah Gbbsturbo, thats a good question which hood you should keep on the car.. I couldn't tell ya, They both look nice, oem is cleaner but the invader probably helps out a lot.

my personal favorite is the extreme GT....looks and function..but I think the invader hood looks ok to...whatever you like I guess.

*edit*

oh yeah... :thumbsup to Goriliaz

Invader hood IMO.

I went to fiberimages for my new hood. They are supposed to be sending me pics so I can see the fitment but they never had. Like I have said before your car looks great. What width and offset on the 19s?

the width is 8 but I dont know the off set, what ever they gave me I guess... I don't rub though. I have 235/35 tires and I don't rub at all so I'm happy with them. Some of my friends said to powder coat the inside black and leave the polished lip but I had 18's like that and I think I like these better because they shine more. :)

19" chromers instead of the black wheels imo...i love chrome wheels, especially w/ dark blue cars ...car looks gorgeous either way tho
:thumbsup

your car makes me wet my pants...it looks just the way i wanted mine to look before i decided to go all black, that is with the oem hood which in my opinion looks better on *your* car.
