Over the weekend ( my two days off ) I had a 14 hour drive throughout Indiana and Michigan and today a 2 hour drive to MantaZs house. During the trip I picked up a new hood ( thanks Ian ) new front ( thanks Paul S. ) and did some new things to my fenders, and then stopped my Stephens house to go back to my 01 front end and he painted the housings on the healights for me
.
If nobody rememebers.. my front end used to look like this
and it just wasnt doing it for me.. the drift front was too low for the Type J sides and rear, headlights were all foggy and bumper was cracked in a ton of places, so I decided before I went for paint it was time for a major change, so I got this stuff.. lol
so now it looks like this..
and.. I took some Black and white night shots.. looks pretty good and lightens it up a bit...
The Z3s cant really be seen in these pics.. but I put mesh in them and adjusted them, and there are still some things to correct and I have the mesh kit for the front bumer new hood pins, and then shave inners, lower with prokit, 18"Black Motegi DV-5s, Crimson Splash Hot Hues paint all to come.. maybe a design in the hood and then im all set.
Let me know what you think

Theres kind of an idea we had on the hood.. I choped that off of Ians car because my same hood, and I have the kit so it works. its not the best chop or anything like that and its 4 am lol, but thats kinda what im thinking id do if I did anything with it... love to find a Type J C/F lip.. but I doubt that will happen seeing as how rare they are..if I did..
hope Ian doesnt mind me using the car to show this..
The drop and Underbodies, fogs and a few other things will be my next check, so ill update then as far as that goes..
and I not sure if im keeping the Z3s or going back to stock.. gonna give it a few days and look it over, but the prostock I had and Z3s were the 2 things I was undecided about, kept the Z3s and ditched the wing, but who knows
.

^^^that paint scheme is very very nice!
i would so go with that if you can get your hands on the c/f lip.
fantastic eye buddy!
i certainly hope you are able to pursue your vision.

I love it jeff.. but u know that
Jeff, cant u get john to wrap the bumper in CF? or atleast make the insert? but i think it looks fine without the lip anyway.
and dont forget who primered the front
wish i had my camera cord so i can host all the pics i got

dropping a car should be everyones first mod
Its gonna look good painted!
Dropping was my first mod.. till I thought the car was sold so I put stock springs on and sold them.. so I guess I have to wait on that..
I dont think I wanna do Toyo tails, and the black headlights and black outters will look good on the red, so it will be red with black wheels, tint, head, tails.. will kinda break it up a bit..
Thanks for all the comments guys, keep them coming..
Ill have some day pics after work today.. when I go to take the lambos off
