Well I KNOW I am going to get alot of hateing about this but I take it ok . That is what makes the car hobby fun, everyone like something different. If everyone liked the same things we'd see an awful lot of Red SVT's! LOL

Well I am getting further on mine. A couple more things and I'll be painting er. I am going a bit off the "tuner" path and more of a custom compact or mini truck style I guess you could say.

Here are my new billet trible motorcycle mirrors...

I also shaved the tail lights and added these LED's in the bumper...

Shaved the front bumpers turn signals and fog lights....

Now I plan on getting billet upper and lower grills, shave the antenna, shave the rear hatch then paint it.
I plan on painting it something like this but NOT exactly because i do NOT copy paint jobs, just get ideas

Thanks for looking and Take care!

Stop ruining the car. I'm beginning to think the cars crash was a suicide attempt.....

not digging the mirrors. i see where you're going with it. progress always looks bad till you see the finish. i thought you were going to rock the camo for a sec.
A friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana, I said "No, but I want a regular banana later, so Yeah."

I disagree with everyone. I think that looks awesome! I do agree with the taillights however, try to get them more flush with the bumper. As far as the mirrors go... iffy. But Clear coat it and leave it. The paint on it looks bad ass.

I didn't comment, I was just laughing at Pappys response.

I withold judgement until the car is done, For now I can say I'm not sure about the mirrors though.
