A Sneak Peak
Sunday, April 27, 2008 6:25 PM
Well I usually dont post much, and I have never posted pics. But I figured I would post some pics of my current progress on the car.
I started in Jan. I hopefully will have it done for sometime in May. I have hopes to bring it to the Bash in St Thomas...
Pics!







Give me some opinions!

i think i would like the style of lights on fetter's car better than the ones that stick up, but it looks good nonetheless! keep it up

remove that wing and really show that rearend off!!! the widebody would be more noticeable without the disctraction of the wing.

I dunno...I don't even like the headlights to be honest....props for doing something different, but I just don't feel them. Interesting to see where it goes once it's done

Holy feedback its only been an hour lol

The wing will most likely be staying sorry everyone. Without it the car looks really unbalanced. I may get another trunk and try it wingless just to see what it looks like.

The headlights are what they are, Fetters were A real JDM replacement (I think) these are an aftermarket replacement. Reason for it is availablity, and cost. The ones that dont stick up were really expensive and were going to take forever to get in. Now that I have everything made around them it will be easy to change to them in the future if I decide too. Just a bolt in.

As stated I only started this build in Jan. I work full time so I do this in my spare time. The wide body is completely steel and was welded on. only fiberglass is in the bumpers.

I think the rear kit would look better with wind deflection in black. The spoiler wouldn't even really bother me if it went from side to side off the trunk lid, though I'm not sure how practical that'd be since you couldn't use the trunk then

love it. hate the wing. try a lip or something instead of the knockoff srt/supra wing. other than that i really like the direction and the wide body.

the wing looks like something my buddies from high school would have put on their cars in hopes of a few extra horsepower IMO
but if you like it keep it....

"I did it because I wanted to see what it would look like. You should be greatful that I even told you that it would look good. If your to dumb to use photoshop and change the color of your own car then you don't need to see it changed. I'm not going to give my work away. I'll sell the pic to you though for $15."-Adam Kalin

I think you should do a Tiburon wing like Excessive Fire had. That looked awesome.

A lot going on there........but i cant wait to see it done





Re: A Sneak Peak

get rid of the wing or add a little lip or something, that takes away from the rest of the car completely






Re: A Sneak Peak

I actually like the wing on there..it looks weird in the rear 3/4 shot..but the other 2 pics I think it looks good, flows pretty well with the car..can't wait to see it painted and with the steelies off and rims on



Re: A Sneak Peak

i never liked those kind of headlights. they just look cheaper sorry. they make the same kind for s15s and they dont look good. props on the work though

I can't get into the headlights..kit is nice though

not a fan of the headlights whatsoever... and i cant believe im going to say this because i absolutely despise wings, but that thing looks damn good on there. car is wide and very modded so i believe the wing helps the look out quite nicely.

extremely nice work, looking forward to seeing pics of it finished.



Rollin' on question marks since 07.

Hey everyone, lots of feedback, some good some bad its all good though
I may try wingless to see how it looks but as of now its staying I do have an endless supply or parts so I will pick up a trunk and see what it looks like.

Someone did mention that the wing makes the trunk un-usable, jsut so you know the trunk still opens with the wing it is the Wings west Supra style wing I go it a few years ago\I will post again later

props on the custom work.

Any thing happening with the hood? or staying stock?

We might be the only ones at the bash with headlight swaps, hopefully we both get there this year!
