I feel like I have put it off long enough and I should probably make a thread in here. Car was originally a 93 Si, factory color was milano red but for some reason had been painted this red pearl that looked terrible and faded badly.
Here it is early in it's life, yes it came with 18's...
Finally gave it some extra power...
Also did the Hytech Tri-Y rep and a custom exhaust w/HKS Hi Power Ti muffler.
Finally got some new wheels, this pic was too big I felt to directly host
This came next along with a 68mm Omni power TB and S300
Recently though I finally decided it was time to paint since the roof started rusting along the windshield, the people who last put that windshield in were obviously butchers. So with working at the dealer I used my nice discount to buy all this...
Windshield
Windshield molding
Windshield clips
Roof moldings
Clips for roof moldings
Door moldings
Carpet
Rear glass seal
Rear glass lower trim
Front lip (I never had one)
Tail light gaskets
New front bumper
New sunroof panel
Sunroof panel seal
Then I stripped the car bare, no interior, even body grommets pulled. Body shop guy did an amazing job with the rust, cut the metal out and welding new metal in. You'd never know it was ever there, just sucks I don't have any before pics but he may since I noticed him snapping pics before spraying the other day.
Here is how it sits now, with the main body, trunk, rear wing(not on), side mirrors(totally disassembled and not on) and door handles(not on) painted, cleared and buffed. He texted me these while I was at work today.
Pretty much it got a full color change, everything that could be removed was. Car also has your usual things like JDM 1 piece black headlights, JDM side markers, CC delete, EGR delete, antenna shaved(the right way with welding),JDM window visors and EL gauge conversion.
Next Friday when I'm off, since he wont be there tomorrow cause it's Sunday I should be able to get some more pics of the finished outer panels as well as start putting it back together. Gonna try to get some professional pics taken of the finished product.
Thanks for looking.
