9212, First pics of my new body work and kit....... Posted by guest, Oct-07-01 06:44 AM
Well since I am not very bright.... my bookmark is set to the old page and my homepage is set to the new one. so the few people that posted on my original post and its not here thats why.. I screwed up... any ways here are the pics.



Now the color is actually IS300 yellow with a blue pearl over it. It is a lot brighter in person. These pics were takin at HIN in San Mateo.. Unfortunatly I didn't win crap... oh well I don't have any interior... damn corbeau hasn't shipped my seats.. and I haven't done anything else yet... So let me know what u guys think.

to do the headlights u gottta pull them apart and then the piece I painted is seperate from the rest of the headlights.. so I just pulled it out and painted it. as for the rims... I like them but they are to small I need at least 17's maybe I will rival lindsay and get 19's hehehe prolly not... I might just get 18's but nothin bigger. as for the taillights..... KMA.... j/p I personally like them but I will eventually make them all the same color as soon as I get the lenses...... but I know other people who don't like them.... to each his own.... but I will tell u this thats the part of my car that got the most attention... aside from the BOV that is... :-)

Body shop did a great job! Especially with molding those sides in. Yeah I like the Vette taillight conversion, just think they should be the same color. But nice ride either way.
I'd love to post some pics of the women at Chicago HIN... but Guy has to get those duplicates made first (hint, hint...)

After all the made hrs of labor I went through doing the body work... well shaping... my front put in the vents and I did all the rest of the work molding the sides...shaping them shaping the front vents and so on... I wish I would have given it to a body shop.... this was my first time doing body work and lemme say this I will live a happy life if I never have to touch another can of bondo or fiberglass again.... :-) but I did most of the work aside from the actuall vent installs.... but I would be able to do them now. they are soooo easy the hard part is all the shaping and sanding and more sanding...

I'll tell you straight up 'bout your ride because I expect people to do the same for me with mine, don't take what I say to heart if you can't take critism...
1. I like the rear, almost bought it. I decided to stick with my stock one because I havent come across the one you have in person. Good rule to buying a kit, see the kit in person.
2. I never liked the buddy club front on any car, you should have stuck with the Sensei front!
3. I love the painting of the headlights, I think that stuff is smooth.
4. I agree with everyone else, chuck those tail lights, stock ones look better or go with Altezzas with the 3 red circles and paint the inside casing yellow.
5. I dig the hood. Can't go wrong there, ever.
6. My opinion, but I dont like the fenders from what I can see in the picture.
7. Grab some black engine paint and spray your inside fender wells black, you got nailed with overspray. Same thing happen to me when I got my car back from the autobody shop.
8. Those sideskirts are bad ass the way they came! Especially with doorcaps. They look clean like the stock ones did, but with an aftermarket edge. I'd probably have to see what you've added on in person. The reason why I don't like this is because the car came with a line all the way across the door and fender on each side. I don;t like anything that goes above that line, doesn't match in my opinion. Anyone else feel that way?
9. I'm guessing you went 16" wheels because of performance reasons? I'm willing to bet that with a 17" wheel with maybe a 45 series tire woul be about the same as the setup you have now. Might actually pic your car up a .25" for more clearance too because I know how these kits are!
10. I love the color!
The rack on this chick is grrrr-eat. Sign me up. Tell her I said "Hi."

where did ya get the headlights i have never seen those before! all the other porjectors do not have the piece that you painted. please let us know man later "Z"

9235, RE: First pics of my new body work and kit....... Posted by guest, Oct-08-01 06:36 AM
as far as molding.... my advice is.... let someone else do it unless u have lots of time and are willing to deal with not having them finished. I was sooo sick of working on my car... everytime I thought I was done I would primer it and I would see pin holes or waves or somthing and it just seems like a never ending process. but if u want to send me an e-mail and I will see what I can help u with. as for the projectors... they are tjhe regular ones... you know when u order them and u order black or chrome housings? well thats what I painted mine were black housings and I painted them to match. thats all.

Another good point I'd like to make is that you WISELY stuck with a bright, light shade color for the car...cause if you did a dark color, you would not be able to see those vents and holes as well as with a light color :) Good job, Jeff. *pats on da back.....

Jeff that car is tight........peeps were grabbing cards when you started spitting off the BOV...any way Will, TJ and I are trying to enter a few cars next year as a group im assuming you are down to be one of those members. I just got a FMIC ,DP and a Apex-i exhaust in preparation for next year.........so in a few months maybe we can go over some paint and vynal schemes for my GSX.........Curtis 96 GS 95 GSX DSMXtreme.com...P.S .Im pissed Wyatt didnt show...He missed out on a GRAND opportunity to promote his shop.....You saw the crowd the Type S was drawing. Maybe he will inter the Turbo GS....We are aiming for at least 5 cars.
