Default Pics of the Snatchback.....(MAJOR WARNING TO 56K)

BEFORE......





AFTER.....






things that the car still needs to go back for is....
the outer gilles, and spoiler need to shot with mat black like the mirrors and skirts,...
some minor dust marks, and one clear coat run,....
then the brackets for the blate need to be installed behind the
bumper so i can take that plate off the floor like that, and align up
all the lights (headlights/cornerlenses)......

yes the wheels are not the greatest they are simple 15" BSA's wrapped in
Perelli rubber...but thats all i can roll on for the time being,...some think its
quite sleeperish looking with them....i was thinking of painting them bronze,
then i got the same suggestions after the thougt,....so i may lean towards that
not sure,....and if you notice, yes the rear is higher due to the fact there isn't anything
in the car except for door panels, dash, and front seats...everything else has been
deleted....will post more pics of the stripped/painted interior, and after all the
imperfections have been done

even though not the greatest job....
the hood, spoiler, and corners... not gonna
go with the overkilled CF hood spoiler, and vision corners....IMO.

going to keep the exterior as OEM USDM as much
as possible from the outside...i'm thinking of getting
a fibreglass hood for wieght purposes only, but paint back
to match,....and the spoiler is getting a shot of mat black to
match the mirrors, and skirts.....and as for the corners, i'm leaving
the brand new oem ones i just put one....BUT,...i'm feeling those black
rims,...but most likely won't do it....i like the drop though....

I like it. I do like how you are planning to stay USDM instead. I did the same with my coupe. I am staying USDM.

Looks good. If I had a white hatch thought I would have left it alone. What color is that anyway

Earthy tones are definately "in" for 2002.
Lots of bronzes, browns, greens, greys, etc.
Car looks great

cosmetics = OEM JDM ONLY! performance = anything to make it ALL PURPOSE!!

wow instead of pissing your money away on a fibreglass hood why dont you just get a carbon fiber one and paint match that? its stronger and lighter and probably costs the same.

1. last time i checked i found a fibreglass hood that was lighter than CF hoods.
2. last time i checked i found this fibreglass hood cost $100(cdn) cheaper....
3. i am also staying away from this Carbon Fibre Fever that alot of people are dumping money into...i'm striving for an all purpose ride, i'd rather spend $60(cdn) on an OEM lip then spend $500(cdn) on a spoon/benen etc. CF lip....as for the spoliers....not into the cocked up look that it gives plus that cost mad money as well, i would rather keep spending the money in making the car stiffer and stop better, plus like i said cosmetically i rather look oem than some trend...

no offence jus my opinion.
