99346, As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by ez, Jul-12-07 08:46 PM
Lowered with sportlines, powdercoated enkei shoguns, powdercoated centercaps. I think it's sex. Definately not for everyone, and that's what I like most about it, it contrasts with everything else I see (typical SoCal pretentious cars, or SUVs with tacky chrome 22s and a driver trying to look hard.) It's antisocial ninja style IMO. Before you say it, yes I need to do a serious brake upgrade. I'm working on it...

I agree, and I like it. :thumbsup Nice work. Just to let you know, you have an extra "http://" in the video link.

yo ez, your car is distilled sex in vehicle form! :P We need to meet up when I have my car up and running again, and talk about starting my LED tails ya? Fuck it you should come down right now and help me fix it! :7
I never thought I'de say this but I think if you just put skirts 2ga or b and a chin spoiler (no hatch spoiler), your car will be the most quintessential clean black 2g on the forum IMO. keep on rockin' :thumbsup
EDIT: if your interior is black, red accents like I have in mine will make your interior the sex aswell.

And here I thought that Jersey was the only place where these little 150lb, shaved head, fake chain wearing, wannabe killas drove around in their trucks with half of their bodies hanging outside the window.
I like your the rims and the spoilerless look. The red centerpiece on the rims goes nicely with your stock tail-lights. The only thing that looks out of place a little is the amber bumper lights. You should get the smoked ones they sell on ebay to make your car look even darker. :evilgrin

nah, they don't drive around with half their body hanging out the window here... they just lean so far back it looks like some body in the back seat is driving the car. I dont know how they stand not being able to see over their dashboard :shrug

Not a fan of the rims, but looks clean otherwise. I agree about the bumper lights, should get either clear or smoked ones.

I just switched back to the ambers a couple days ago. I lost one of my clears last week so I replaced both with some junkyard scores.
Doesn't matter anyway, I'm custom making a front bumper that will shave off the side markers and the fogs. Here are some photoshops I did when making the design (I used a random picture off of tooners, as he had a good front picture)

the actual bumper I'm using. I'm using it as a plug, to make a mold. It's possible for me to even make multiple copies if the mold comes out good.

Yikes. Please don't do that to your car.

99354, RE: As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by edxmon, Jul-13-07 05:48 PM
I could have used that front bumper :(

99355, RE: As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by ez, Jul-15-07 02:06 PM
If it ends up looking awful, obviously I won't put it on my car. My photoshop skills aren't the best, but trust me on this one I have a vision. dj you realize the only thing different from the OEM bumper is that the side vents are different and the side markers/fogs are gone - this design is almost going to look stock, just more angry

99357, RE: As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by eclipsekaiser, Jul-15-07 10:19 PM
hehehehe Looks good. Are you still local? I might have a set of Clear corners I can contribute. Will have to dig around a bit though...
Now about that rear main leak...:P

99358, RE: As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by eclipse982nrRST, Jul-16-07 04:39 AM
Car looks nice.
I dont care for that front bumper though at ALL. Looks like a shark to me.
Throw a Carbonfiber chin spoiler on there with some side skrits, a cf hood and cf hatch and your good to go.

Your car IS sex.
The first thing that came to mind when i saw the led tails was "nightrider".
Now all you have to do is get your car to say your name when you start it up. Use a pornstar voiceover. ;)
In all seriousness, your car flows pretty good. Hook it up with some skirts and a front lower lip if you want it to look meaner.
I dont mean to offend but that bumper you're wanting to make looks horrible. It'd throw everything off.

2g"a" sides, smoked bumper lenses, and even out the tint on the windows... done
EDIT: if you do decide to do something with that front bumper, try to make the vents come "inward" towards the radiator support like the OEM middle opening to give it some depth, makes a big difference, thats a big factor in a lot of aftermarket knockoffs vs real deal kits.

Thanks for the input guys. I think I will redesign the bumper, I'm not as excited about the design as I used to be when I first made it. Back to the drawing board
Originally posted by R34Eclipse 2g"a" sides, smoked bumper lenses, and even out the tint on the windows... done
I'm redoing the tint actually - the fronts used to be dark, not like the 5% limo tint in the back, but good enough to blend. Took the pics b4 I finished the tint.

That's my plan!

Ha ha, funny you should say that - I'm making a car alarm with the same chips I used to make my tails. Reason for that is so that I can play certain sounds and control parts of the car with a remote. The plan is to use some sound bites off of XG-3, and incorporate a voice too. But it's not a portstar, it's Soundwave from the old Transformers cartoon. I just have to find some good soundbites of him. Wish I could find something like him saying "System armed" or "Time to escape" or "As you command, Megatron"

Glad to hear you're reconsidering that bumper.
"as you command megatron"
Haha. That'd be pretty insane. Sure as hell freak people out.
I hate to sound like a broken record but those tails are the shit! So awesome.

EZ that is a wicked car man everything i'm dreaming of. You got a good sens of style my fellow 2gnt member.

99431, RE: As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by Slimyjr., Jul-30-07 02:51 PM
sick car ez. props to you! :bowdown
Question for you though: how the hell did you do the led tails, with the module? Any sites you recomend to help some newbs understand that shit? Did you use circuit board?
|
99548, RE: As you requested, pics of the new setup (even a video) Posted by 95greenhrcgs, Aug-16-07 08:06 AM
Nice. Looks "Murdered Out" I think that a 97-99 turbo wing and an RMDSM chin spoiler would make the car ABSOLUTELY mean looking, especially if you blacked out the red on the wheels and tinted the side windows a lil darker!!!!!
Look VERY nice man!

Transformers audio clips FTW!
it kinda reveals how much of a geek I am, but I want to get the Final Fantasy "battle won" jingle for use at the track, maybe occasionally for laying the smackdown on idiot ricers at some stoplight challenge :7

Sorry, haven't been around much lately, but are the red center caps the plan?
It doesn't do it for me, but that's just my opinion.
