Posted by Aggression, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM

Wow, that's different. Since you were shaving holes, I would have shaved the rear wiper and antenna. Looks a lot cleaner though. I like it.

the antenna and wiper are going before it gets repainted next year.

cool, it really does add to the cleanliness of the car. I've pondered staying wingless myself, but I'll probably end up going with the turbo spoiler. That's IF I ever get around to getting this thing painted...

I know the feeling of changing styles up. I will probably end up just putting the stock front on and going with a cf lip after it gets painted as well. I will leave the rear and sides though. What I have in mind is going to be very clean since the graphics will finally be gone (THANK GOD!) and the car will have more power at that point as well.

Wide...do you have any current pics of your car? I would love to see them man! Oh yeah BTW...you better be ready and have your shit together for NOPI next year. Get up with me a month or so in advanced and we can all stay at the same hotel so we can all party it up. Same goes for the SO coming up(if there is one)!

thanks guys that is what I am going for is just really clean looking. Like I said I can't wait for those painted on graphics to be gone! Then I will be happy!

Lookin good. Is it just me or is your back bumper a different color?
90257, RE: Some Pics (Now Wingless)
Posted by Aggression, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
nope you are correct in saying that and its a long story.

Remember the accident I was in back in early March when I got rear ended? http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=7&topic_id=82189&mesg_id=82189&listing_type=search



Well the guy I had paint it messed it up 3 different times before telling me that he can not color match silver. I even gave him the paint my car was painted with 3 months prior to the accident. I mean come on man. But that is another reason I am excited to get the whole car painted as well. Stock front, no graphics, and no mismatch colors.

Yup, interior still looks amazing.

Sorry to say, but I'd put the CF tails back on. It's just that you have the whole scheme going and it's like-

RED.

I will not put altezzas on my car. You will see that the red will be tied in at the end. I just love the stock tails too much. But the stock tails tie into the clean look!

Trust me it will look good in the end. It may look like ass now, but believe you me...it will look nice and clean in the end.

I thought you had CF altezzas before? LOL. Ok, I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

It looks good and the interior is still my dream interior. I'm very happy to see that ugly brown manifold/turbo covered up. Maybe I don't pay close enough attention but it's the first pictures i've seen with it covered up. Overall it still looks great I think.

You're goddamn right about that, man. Looks schweet, J. Coming from resident "Purity Boy," that's a compliment. You might want to drop azDave a line to see if he's got any information for you on hood props. He's got struts that look very smooth.

Oh trust me, the outside will be done. HOK Kandy Apple red with rmdsm lip, carbon hood, stock front, sides, and rear. Just debating on the spoiler. We'll definately have to get together though. I am going to try and bring more people next time too.

I don't like it wingless. I think eclipses look weird as hell without a wing.

It looks GREAT wingless. Much better man. Why does my invader hood look so much more arched then yours? That rear bumper needs some work before you get your new paint. All in all, Great show quality as always!

I agree with you on the rear bumper needing more work...actually the whole rear needs some work!

I am actually toying with the notion of molding in some gauge pods and a insert for my wideband lcd sceen into the dash and then wrap it with cf. But more then likely that won't be for a while since I have my rebuild first, but I might work it in somewhere when I do my body work and paint.

I don't know! So much I want to do and its starting to get cold and darker earlier. I hate winter time for that sole reason. I wish I had access to a full open well lite garage after work.

looks nice but your rear bumper paint looks darker than your car and get rid of the blue pedal pads please.

ps, our gas is only 2.19, haha!

WHOA! I just looked at your gas prices and its only 2.05 here! Crazy. Anyways, carry on.

90280, RE: Some Pics (Now Wingless)
Posted by Aggression, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
HAHA...yes gas is still pretty high here considering I have to use premium and its $2.85 a gallon. I am considering just running race gas all the time since it isn't that much more.

LOL...and I didn't even know I still has those on...haha! I put those on about 3-4 years ago. Totally forgot about them...because how often do you look at your own pedals?

Thank you!

You are very correct in your statement. I do take a lot of pride in my car. I think most people do with the exception of some, but you can usually tell who does and who doesn't take pride in their cars.

If you watch some people get out of their cars and walk into a building....and the whole time they are heading in you see them keep taking looks back at their car...thats the love and pride I am talking about! I do that all the time.

LMAO, I do too, but i try not to make it look to obvious that im checking out my own car. We should all set up a meet in some store's parking lot and while were walking in together we all turn around as a group a couple times. lol And its usually a long walk so i can get like 5 good head turns in, you know we all park super far out in the parking lot away from other cars. ( my g/f hates that )

ps. Did you ever strategically park your ride in a certain spot so you see it at a good angle when you walk out of the store? I do :9

Damn right I do...or park it in a spot so when your in a resturant you can keep an good eye one it! I have to set my panic off on purpose to get people away from it at times. I get people looking in the window and walking around the car all the time and it makes me nervous. So yes I do do that!

Not much glare at all, but then again I put a cover over it so it doesn't see much direct sunlight.
