I just realized I never posted pics of my new paint job. I'll try to get some better shots when the weather clears.








Oh, you don't like altezza's? Too bad, your gonna get a good look at mine.

Looks good man!

Jesus H. Christ that is a gorgeous red you have there. It actually looks really good all around, nice work!

1995 Eagle Talon ESi

Thanks for all the kind word guys. We worked really hard on the car for about 4 months. I guess it was worth the wait. The worst part about it is that about 2 weeks after I got the car back together I must have spun the rod bearings. I almost puked. I still haven't had the heart to drop the pan off to see for sure what happened, but I'll get to it soon. I should have gone ahead and put in forged rods when I rebuilt for turbo. Looks like I'll have my chance now though. As for some of your questions.

The colors are House Of Kolor Candy Apple Red, Orion Silver, and Orange pin stripe enamel.

I will post more picks of the hood as soon as I dig them out Jez.

Yes the Bumper was made for the 2G headlights. I've had this kit forever though. I think I bought it in 99 before it became so popular. I still like it though, so I kept it on. I seriously considered the Buddy Club 2 kit though.

And Jeremy, I can't wait to catch up with you at another show. Let me know which ones your planning on going to this year.

On a side note, I think your car would look pretty crazy with a rim scheme like this.

Very nice color choice. Candy Apple red is my next choice for the paint on my car, not sure if I'm gonna stick with purple, or go red.
Only thing, good luck driving in the rain with that hood. I cant drive far in the rain with mine. Also, when washing the car, put some cardboard under those vents if the engine is warm so you dont get the whord of steam everywhere.

Update your sig too.

I have been in bed with Dino.....ask me for a picture!

Yea, whenever I get off my lazy ass and get around to painting my car it's coing to be Candy apple red. I think I'm going to go with a slightly darker silver base to get more of a dark blood red look to it. I'll probably wait till it warms up a bit more outside though.

Bummer... so water gets in that hood?
