whats that? i have updates? :)
Sunday, March 23, 2008 8:28 PM
ok so i usually post pics when i get something worth sharing. well these past couple months have been kinda busy.
NEW:
air ride
trimmed bumper
re wrapped trunk (temporary)
re wrapped headliner and rear deck
windows tinted - 15% on sides and 5% on back 3 windows
shaved the third brake light off the rear deck
made a piece with plexi and suede to seal off trunk
rolled fenders
place for guages in console


so i finally got air ride from jason at aplus!!!!!!!!! i wasnt planning on doing so this early but he had a hell of a deal and hes a great guy to do business with.got the basic kit but decided to go with 2 280 compressors and the 10 switch box. got it all put in thanks to my boy josh and his brother in law for putting in the extra wrench time with me. took a few weeks chasing leaks and tweaking stuff but i think i finally got it!!

the rims im running are 8" wide w/ a 42 mm offset so i had to roll my fenders. i tried the bat thing but that was a big no for me. so i searched and searched and found 1 company that had the actual fender roller tool to rent. 25 bucks a day isnt bad. did that myself and came out pretty damn good. also finally got around to getting my windows tinted. the first person who had the car before me got cheap tint and wasnt dark. so i got em done with a lifetime warrenty!!. 10x better if u ask me!!. so since i made the appointment to get em done i decided to gut the rear interior .doing so made me realize that the rear deck faded BAD from the sun. re wrapped the deck,headliner and made the new piece for the backseat area.

also had to shave the rear bumper because of it being too damn low.so i took off about 2 inches. it hasnt been sanded or painted so ignore that. itll get paint in a couple weeks. now i can lay it all down and not have to worry about cracking the kit!!

on with the pix!!!!!!!!



no 3rd brake light!!

























i have a small video but youtube is taking forever to upload it. so ill post that when and if it finishes!

thanks for veiwing. comments welcome as always

big thanks to jason for the great deal on the kit,thanks to josh,vic,mike for helpin me out when i needed it!

definitely one of my favorite j's of all time, that tint just finished it off perfectly. the interior work is awesome man, you did such a good job on that! i just dont like it on air though its cool n all, i just think that a tuner-ish looking car has no business being on air. but it does really look good on the ground.

things i want to suggest....

take out the fender liners and get that red paint off of them and get some new plastic buttons to hold them in.
fix the exhaust, idk what the deal is... maybe just align it a lil better and clean the crap out of the tip and i think it would be golden.

great car man, great car.

Awesome car, always have loved it. But is your front alignment (hood fenders lights and bumper) all screwed up?

Your KILLING me! That looks sooo bad ass! Now i'm wishing I was going with air instead of brakes and paint.

I really like what you did with the rear deck and trunk divider. I am not feeling that color of suede. It maybe just that the pics do not do that color justice.

Sick Rick, you're car has taken off over the last 6 - 8 months man, really turned into one of the stars of the site in my opinion. I love it dude, very well thought out combination of parts, colors, and work all around.

You killin em!

HUGE Difference between Hydaulics / Air Ride. I'm sure you are basing your opinion off from what you know

about either.......which is probably not much.
