Finaly got her painted. im happy with the end result. painting everything makes the car look newer. i still need the jdm side skirts and rear bumper and apron from uk. i just got a hold of a jdm bumper beam so i can install the jdm rs spotties. well here is my car at different stages.
my mods are on my webpage.
Cheers,
Jim

wow, looks really nice. What level of tint did you get for your car? Also, did you finish putting the turbo in now? What muffler do you have on the end of your exhaust? Also, what is that red brake light thing under your bumper on the right of your car? How much was the paint job? Sorry for all the questions.

Lookin good, I like the liberty trunk. But me personally I would've left the pillars between the windows black. Still looks a lot better without the bike rack on top

I like all the painted trim. Looks a lot newer. I should've done the mirrors, grille, and black side molding when I had mine painted. Looks good.

Nice seat covers.



:p

Looks great!

OMG. . . now that's quite the restoration you've done! Looks amazing!

that looks great homeslice!

have you considered getting the euro/aussie rear tailamp clusters that have the built in rear foggy? i really like those lamps.

also what kind of headlamps are those?

and finally get some skirts on that thing!!

i have 15% all around. i was wishing i went 32% in the front but oh well. it is nice and dark. the turbo is coming soon. i recently got laid off and another job didnt work out so money is tight........ the muff is a naxos. i got it for basicly nothing because i worked at the muffler shop.i am not a big fan of the DTM but it grew on me. the red brake looking thing is a Hella rear fog light. i have it hooked up to a dash switch. make it look more EDM. $1500. PPG paint, more metalic. it was a freind of mine that painted it. i had so much oddball ish to get painted, if i brought itsomewhere else they would of laughed at me.

The trunk garnish is from a UK legacy. 2.2gx- i just need the RS GT bumper from UK----i like the look of the tint with the black moldings. looks like a big dome. but my black was chiped so bad i was like paint um too. i got the bottom window weather striping painted too. only halfway down so the paint wont crack. on the front and back i got the moldings painted on top of the glass. the racks will be back next spring time

I been trying to locate the tailllights for awhile. no luck. i was going to buy one but i rather spend the lil money i have on sumtin else. the head lamps are JDM i just re aimed them they are great. I CAN ACTAULLY SEE THE ROAD NOW WITHOUT FOG LIGHTS ON! yahoo! and i need to get some skirts in more ways then one.

A almost full list of mods are on my website.
CHEERS,
Jim

Aussies have built in foggys in the rear tail lamps? Also, how do you like your muffler? It is a dtm 3.5 in out right? How is the sound on your n/a? Is it fairly loud on the freeway at cruising speeds?

Yup yup-- 21w rear fogs- euro models also have them i dont know about jdm ones. i like the muff but i want a apexi dunk. its 2.5 in its sounds great on my car. unleashed the boxer sound. i needed it louder and less restricted so i am running it with one cat out. i also ran 2.5 from where that cat was and made a test pipe so i can throw the cat back in for emssions time . its pretty loud now. i like it though

How would it be on trips though? Is it too much on the freeway for trips?

I like the look of it and am thinking of going with one that looks like that, but if it is too loud, I may just go with one of the 4 inch tips that will alow me to get a silencer.

11 to 12 hours of too much noise may be annoying when driving from Washington to California.

if you change just the muffler with any free flowing deal it should still be fairly quiet. the cat really holds back flow.

ah ok. I am thinking of eventually going with a single high flow cat. That should do well then, for now.

Beautiful!!!
I think our cars look a lot better without all that black trim
Awesome car dude Where did you get those clear side markers???

Awesome!! What color of paint is that? Man thats a sweet car

Mark,

You should've taken off the window trim and had them paint it black.

I'm going to try and do that to mine some time this winter when the humidity and heat aren't so bad.

btw....car looks good you need to lower it too

Very nice! I like that you painted the black trim too. I'm thinking about doing that with mine and now I know it looks good. I really like the trunk too. Looks real good.

I really love the widow trims colour coded and the custom front grille looks awesome, just a set of RS skirts colour coded and dumped about 2" the thing will look awesome.

dude your car is beautiful that makes me want to get mine repainted even more

thank you guys!!!!!! the color is sonora sand just more metalic. the car is lowered..........in the front that is...i have whitelines and agxs up front. just need to lower the rear..i really want some skirts for my car....and the euro bumper with apron. i made the clear side markers. they came out nice..now i have to finish building this motor.......

Your car has made the biggest turn around from looking like a Tauras to a BC beast. It looks absolutely amazing now. Your back end, though... that has to be the easiest sedan to clock on the highway now

Words cannot due you car justice. Simply amazing what youve done. Kudos and more.

THANKS!!!

havent got any tickets yet
