Well this project of mine has been going on for about the past 10 months. Unfortunately I don't have pics to document my progress. Me and my uncle set out to paint my car about 3 weeks ago and here is the outcome.











I know I got a little camera happy, but I'm just excited to have my car done. All of the body work was done by my Uncle and myself. I have to say that it did not come out perfect, but hell yes, it came out good! I still need to put back on a few minor things such as the fog lights and some other stuff. But other than that, I think that's all! Let me know what you guys think of the car.


-Thanks, Ryan

Thanks a lot for the compliments guys. I do have the spacers for the front, it's just that I didn't have them when I put the rims on at the spray booth, I only had the rear ones. As for the drop, I have Teins on them right now. But I have yet to find any suspension system that rides good and gives a lower drop than the Teins. Any suggestions? Don't even bother suggesting coilovers, cause I'm not interested in them. And as for my screenname, I've had it since AOL was in style and I was like 8-9 yrs old, so I kind of just never bothered having to remember a different one. I know the body work didn't come out GREAT, but hey, it was my first attempt at REAL body work. I've done minor body work before, but this was the most i've ever done in the area of body work. Painting and spraying comes easy for me.
