What colors are you going with? I personally like blue and silver as a combo.

Well Chris do you have any way or reclearing the hood, it has scratches in the clear thats why I was gonna paint it.. but its just in the clear, so if it can be recleared we are good on that.

And I have it down to #1 and #4, leaning towards 4.. i think it makes the car look longer and now that its lowerest it willbe kinda stealth looking I guess lol

id say do the drivers side in red and the passenger side in black, split down the middle. it would be like having two diffrent cars.

JAson.. that sounds like a terrible Idea.. I hope that was sarcasm lol, but A for effort..

Chris, yeah if we reclear it it should be fine, an then install new pins since the 2 week old ones are rusting already lol

AND.. its #4 FTW

I personally would think that this design looks hot, and then add the carnage character onto the side of the car, I cant do that but if someone can I think it would look killer!!

That design is sick, i wish I could do something like that, but im kinda short on time to mask it and that would take a lot of work to do right, but it does look aswesome..


And.. No lol

why are you rushing a paintjob? that will be the determing factor of wether your car looks good or looks like junk man. take your time and do what you really want.

I did take my time getting it all set up and getting materials and part of the prep is done, but the person doing it is in MN, so i have 4 days and nights non stop to get it ready, with 3 people so the prep should go pretty easily and ive had this time set aside and all my materials ready for a long time. i know what your saying, but its not really rushed in the since its a thing im doing on a whim, its something ive planned and peiced together the proper materials and got things ready for a while now.

ok... its 100 percent official.. this is the one..










i hope you guys like it... because its done, i messed around with body lines, and pulled the line down farther for more even split on the fender into a solid body line that is subtle but not straight across and pull up where teh car curves up onto the rail and it will wrap around the trunk lid, and will paint the lip on the Type J front in black as well, but thats not 100 percent official, may have it overlaid in CF to match hood, and fogs will come out to show charge pipes and intercooler will fit snug in the middle

Oh premium is up, so i cant edit, but also the Spoiler and trunk lock was shaved off yesterday, so that will clean up the lines in the back as well..
