Well i know some of you might wanna see what ive been up too so i took some pics for all of ya. Figured i would make sure i got the car in the best light possible.. wet and overcast.. or at night lol and yeah i know its filthy.. hard to keep it clean the way weather has been lately
A lil Phewesness
Night Shots
Some new green(2k dome light and rearview with maplights)
Now.. as u could see i had to get rid of the Shaved trunklid i had which most of u prolly saw i sold to Jeff(karnage), So here is some updates of what i have coming up with projects and whats laying around.
Some custom Taillights i have been working on slowly for a while
my rear panels primered then wetsanded waiting for paint
Some filthy 2k inner fenders i need to put in
NOW WHAT U ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!
I'm bad at keeping my things secret i guess..
Last weekend i managed to pick up this lil item..
Thats right! Its the old, no longer made, ClassGlassPerformance Carbon Fiber Smooth Trunklid WITH VISIBLE CARBON FIBER WEAVE. They are no longer made with the carbon fiber weave visible as they have a black gel coat they put on them now. I managed to pick this up in Indy for $300 never installed and in great condition minus a few small scratches. Once i finish the taillights ill put this trunklid on with them. But i will also be trying to make sure i have a carbon fiber hood to go on with it as well..
O and dont forget i still got these babies sitting packed away
18s.. YUM
Also if anyone is wondering about how the progress on the Fiberglass lip i made is.. here is a picture of it from earlier this week.. havent worked to hard on it but wed and thursday i started sanding on it.. dont mind the bumper its on.. it was a free bumper i needed to mount the lip on since i have the other bumper on my car now.
Its currently about 5" tall.. itll be taken to about 4" tall when all done..
And i guess i should add that i have basically put my interior work on hold.. i realized i wasnt getting really anywhere with it cuz i want to get some parts and alot of sound deadening as well and do it all at once.. so everything 00 i had i just put in(door panels, headliner, console, rear seat)
Also.. i've had some rust problems on the 1/4 panels so this winter ill be replacing those and spring i should be replacing the doors as well.. once that happens the whole car goes in for a dose of some black primer.
I think thats it. Comments welcome..
Lookin' good. I need to get more work done on mine. Got some stuff in the works but I think yours is making way much better than mine will be. hopefully will be working on my primer over the next few wks.
wow, those rims look sick!!!
i cant wait to see it all coming along!!!!

Entrapped Fury (aka Spence) - sounds good, i want to get the whole car done in primer too.. havent been able to do alot of work just cuz of money and work area..
Geeds - Nut-uh, its brand new
Izn Trbl- Thanks josh, they were my favorite rims since i saw them down in Old Town in florida at a cruise in when i was down there for vacation i think spring of 05. This winter i hope to be getting some clear lenses for the tails so i can finish those up also off ya.
Rob - Thanks man
Scotty - Lol, i wouldnt mind selling it to ya if i wasnt using for winter.. even when i put the fiberglass lip on i think ill hold onto it.. never know when u might need a LS lip..
Darkstars - I told u man.. ill trade you straight up CF Trunk for the Gay Tan Cav.. STRAIGHT UP
Boltz - Yeh im pretty happy about it too, makes for less work for me later on
Navy - Hell yeah i wish my car came originally like that.. be a hell of alot less work for me then lol..
Karnage - Jeff.. i know u love it.. and you know i dont mind doing work.. thats why u ask me lol.. cant help it.. its what i do.. and im not lazy.. just broke
Greencavi - thanks man, love how your car turned out as well.. like i told you in ur post.. what u came up was almost dead on what i was doing.. disappointed me lol
1HOTZ - Thanks Mark, means alot. what you been up to? get at me on aim sometime
redecocav - ha, no i dont brandon.. ask ur wife.. its lickitylick.. she'll tell ya
Thanks tho man
1999 Cav Z24 - very funny brian.. just rub it in that i want ur hood.. lemme know if u ever wanna sell it man.. and it'll prolly never be finished
Crystal - glad it was clear to you.. didnt know if u would be able to figure it out.. no matter how dark u dye your hair
Thanks guys, keep dem comments coming..
Woah, thats really coming together. I like it all, and that lip you made is really starting to take shape. Wish I had the drive you got (seeing all that work you still got to go) , I got burnt out lol
looks good man. does the rear bumper equal the length of the a oo with the lip? i figured u might know. thanks
blu2carbon - common james.. u have to finish it man
yellow22 - honestly i wouldnt know.. now the bumper equals the height the 95-99 Z24 bumper tho.. cuz i didnt have to move my muffler at all.. i would say judging by the exhaust placement that the 00 ls sport rear might be a lil lower cuz it manages to wrap around the exhaust tip area so i would think it would add a inch or 2 to what i had right now..
Edit: looking at it.. the wheel well ends might be as low as the 00 ls sport rear.. but u notice how it curves up towards the back.. so that lifts it up.. but yeh i think the ends where u bolts into the wheel well are prolly just as low if not lower then the 00 ls sport rear..
