79765, Project SPAWN is goin into the body shop
Posted by spawn, Dec-23-04 05:58 AM
sup peeps...

i have finally got my eclipse up to the body shop and will begin workin on the E-RIDE shortly.. as i know wideboding a car isn't the most popular way of fixin up a eclipse but hey.. to each his own right.. since the kamanari kit and the quwhees widebody kits have both been started by members of this forum.. i decided to get the GT300 kit from importfan.. this build-up will take a while but i figure that i would give a heads-up to ya guys out there.

FUTURE MODS:
projector headlights
20 inch wheels
dual exhaust
more to come....

and im not molding those supra tails in the car.. im keeping the eclipse tails figured a lot of u would like that

will post up pics soon as possible during all of the construction.. holla back

im leaning towards a dark blue... carbon-fiber hood, split front diffuser and rear diffuser (when the dang thing gets off back-order) .. should look good wit the TSW thruxtons that im goin to order since they come in a gunmetal color... thinking about a do-luck wing to go on the car, but not for certain

pics will be posted soon as i get em guys.. holla

brotha i have been in the office late and we cant get into personal accnts from here but i will check tonight. as for the windows i would suggust haveing someone take them out for u. it is easy to shatter them when pulling out. i think they charged me like 70 to take them out and if they break em they pay :) contact a glass co in your area. u dont want to paint the car with them in. trust me wount turn out as good. spawn if u havent already i would take em out makes it easier to sand on the quarters without scratching the window seals....
will get back to your email tonight.

Yep, rims are sweet, not really sure about the body kit. And the wing is way too much!!!!!

**EDIT**: But all that matters is that you like it!:thumbsup

preciate it fellas... good or bad criticizms... ohh since i haven't introduced myself.. my name is KOURTSTIN (courts 10) but errbody calls me K.

im still debating a color.. the hood, wing, front diffuser, mirrors, and rear diffuser are all carbon fiber... while the wheels are a gunmetal color.. i am more leaning towards a dark purple or a dark blue right now, but it is still up for debate..

..OUTZ..

Second that!

with as much carbonfiber your gonna have, i think a silver or a grey color would look good. like the stock 2g grey color but only a more custom color. grey/carbonfiber looks hella sweet

I would paint all that CF(other than the diffusers, since they wont be a big visible area)...otherwise it's gonna look goofy...

true true..
im sorta into the JGTC races and all, was gonna try to give it that kind of overall appearance to the car.. loves the low and mean look... what if i two-tone the car??

being a talon owner, I like the black roof, hood, hatch thing..oh, are you gonna leave the lil spike thing on the front bumper(y'know, in the middle of the center opening)? or does this version of the kit have that? If it has it, I think it'd be better without it and with a nice big FMIC..

yah.. the kit has that center point on it.. and i have thought about a custom intercooler upfront.. would be phat.. any other opinions fellas?

If you're turboing your car...buy an FMIC for it...but I still say get rid of that lil point thing..that ruins the look of that kit for me :(
