looking good, how about an overall shot, I don't care how many colors the car is! Good job on a clean conversion!

that conversion is going to look great on your hatch! What happened with the taillights though? Looks like the bodyman forgot to fill in where your old taillights were. Or did you just cut the opening out yourself?

What tail lights are those. And I think they would have probably fit better if you put them upside down on the opposites sides of the car..

thats a nice car.. the taillights arent even that close to being done,but its notthat much work really.. the whole thing should be ready to go in for paint in the next month.
the motor will either be a fully built ls turbo or lsvtec turbo.. i cant decide if i should put my b16 head on it if itll even be worth it in the end. itll be 9:5:1 compression running like 18 psi. so i figure if i do it with a vtec head i might gain like 45 hp but i dont know how itll effect how reliable it is

tail lights.
i really never liked s2000 tails on any car except an s2000.

everything else looks pretty decent.
