Positive comments are welcome, haters can go stick a up their ***


so since very few people read about the stuff I got/kept in the trade and were saying I got screwed rather than bump the archived thread I decided to make a new one.

The week I got it:

The meeting:


The original wheels


My wheels on it


Kind of a crappy pic showing the shiftknob/boot


After repairing the 1/4 panels, fenders(can't see it in any of the pics above but a previous owner had some ricey *** sideskirts that were ripped off literally that left about 20 rivet holes total in the body panels ) and installing the fender side markers (I gots m@d masking skillz ):


Asthetic mods since then:
-Full color change
-JDM 1 pc headlights
-'97 bumper (shaved to look jdm) w/ oem eg lip
-oem shifter(sits much lower)
-CF trunk
-shaved the raised lettering on the tailights
-antenna B.O.P.
-interior is now ALL black(no grey at all)
-JDM visors
-black suede headliner
-ITR "style" e brake boot
+maybe some other **** I'm forgetting


different bumper, a little paint some new headlights a cf trunk and now looks like this:











(yes I know the tweeter is in a shitty location and missing the grill...previous owner did that and I haven't gotten around to the sound system just yet)


pic showing the shaved raised lettering on the taillights(makes waxing a lot easier not having to worry about wax gunking up on the letters):


ALL black rear interior(custom done):


Suede headliner(best pic I could get to show the color....when the flash goes off at certain angles it makes the suede look purplish and the plastic trim look blue )



Future asthetic plans:
CF hood
CF targa
CF rear garnish(area between the taillights)
tint all around
nice sound system
s2K seats

ehh I liked the oem color but the shop I went too didn't have it they only had gloss black, metallic black or a color changing aerodesent black-&gt;redish color plus I've always liked blue in the sun it's awsome looking

 

clean

 

thanks, seems like only yesterday I was driving home unsure if I made a smart move or not

 

nice

 

thanks, some people don't believe it's the same car LOL

(_o_) &lt; bum
.. &lt; thumb



It's definetly changed alot bro! Can't wait to see whats next!

 

LOL

as for what's next IDK. I really want to focus on the motor before I do too much more asthetic mods....still not sure if I should buy the internals for a z6 turbo build or sell the turbo setup(everything except internals and engine mgt.) and the z6 to go with some kind of swap.

 

 

for that my stock exhaust is now 100 million dollas

you should compensate me for the long wait...

 

LOL. no need to tell me it's been a long wait. hopefully sometime this month I'll get it done

 

good job saving that sol

I hate fixing other peoples mistakes

 

wasn't that hard...just needed A LOT (most of which I was able to do...such as grinding down the iberglass from where the sideskirts were molded and eliminating the rivet holes) of body work and some minor touches here and there

 

car looks really sharp!!

got any pic for black suede headliner?

 

lookin good

 

Looks good. Is that color blue a factory color?

 

damn, nice turn around.

 

Beautiful

 

looks better.

imo, dont get an CF hood. it looks clean as expletive with the oem hood
