Default Die-Laughing's Updated Auto Pics...

Well.... i got my Carbon Fiber J's style lip on and i think it was well worth the money
im also finishing up my B-series engine swap..still have some minor tweaking and tuning to do before i call it "reliable" but i've been driving it for a week or two now.

i painted my wheels too..im not sure if any of you remember but they were silver c10's...i wanted to go with a "one-off" color so we decided to mix the paint from all previous projects together, and i picked up some special effects pearl from where i work..the pearl changes from light gold to light green..its pretty cool. i was going to spray the wheel with just that but it wouldnt look right over silver so we had to make a darker base coat. the base turned out to be like a bronzish color..but it far from bronze if your standing next to it...its pretty sick IMO.
let me know what you think
sorry ahead of time if the pics are huge and the quality of the pics suck..no digicam yet.








there's still a lot of work to be done..this is just the begining.

edit: props to my bro "Grip" for helping with the paint

i know it looks like the oem honda silver...but its a nissan color.
paints only a few months old. "platinum metallic" still needs to be wetsanded/buffed.

it fits pretty damn well actually...there is a slight gap on the side of the bumper but its a tight fit for sure

$75 to IL...meh


the exhaust is a muffler shop set-up for now..2-1/4 mandrel bent w/ cat and the longest magnaflow muffler i could find. it sounds pretty good IMO, but im probably going to end up with RS*R
