Update of progress...molded BC2 sides & new wing
Wednesday, August 03, 2005 4:30 PM
Just wanted to post some pics of some new developments on the Z. Right now, everything is under major construction. LOL I took the first few pics of the car wet...the shiniest pics I've took in a while. LOL

We started molding the BC2 sides and still have quite a bit more work to do on them. We only sprayed them so that the car was all black for our vacation at the beach.

We also molded in that place under the tails.

I have a new wing that won't stay on this trunk. I have several spare trunks and the one that I'm going to be using is being "customized" as I type this. We just put the wing on this trunk to see how it would look. It will be modded and molded, also.

I sold my 18" rims and am currently looking for a new set...that's why the stockers are on.

We will be chaning the blitz front and the BC2 rear. To what? I'm really not sure. Any suggestions? I also might sell the hood...(not sure if I want to). And don't worry, the mirrors WILL BE PAINTED!

The car will all be sanded down again, with a lot more custom work to be done to it, and hopefully repainted at least another color of primer by October.

On with the pics.

its a good start.. i just really dont know about that hood, and the front bumper sitting lower than the skirts is a pet peeve as well..

none the less, nice work, looking good!

I think you should leave the bc2 rear and just do the BC2 front with a Turbosport hood. YUM!

coma, as I said above, I'm not keeping the front bumper and I'm still debating about the hood. But thanks for the compliments!

1 HOT Z, I don't like the rear because I can't lower it any more and I'm not at all liking the rear wheel gap. I've got coilovers but since the rear sits so low, I already drag it everywhere. And I'm not even up for modding it to work....I just want rid of it. But thanks for the suggestions!!!

Dougall, thanks for giving your opinion of the [b}hood, since I asked for it and all... /sarcarm

I really think a lot of people on this site must be illiterate.

lookin good.. the only thing i am undecided on is the mirrors.. never liked em chrome.. Looks good tho, What are u plans for the rear bumper?

w00tburgers, thank you. I would like to get a urethane front, as it won't be molded and I constantly drag everywhere, everyday. I've got an idea about a hood if I do get rid of this one.

ßãggéÐÇåv98, I tricked you! Yay... ! It'll be painted one of these years!

Manta Z, the mirrors will be painted. Plans for the rear bumper are to take it off...LOL I don't know what to replace it with, though...need something fiberglass.

i think the gap and heigth looks fine how it is! the rear bumper is one of my favorites!!! imo the best real bumper for a cavalier! i like how your going your own style, most people like dark jdm stuff, you are going bright and chrome by the looks of things. Im thinking maybe chrome tails might match ur corners and headlights a little better!, i love the wing! but i must say......... i think a stock hood would look better than that one but that is just my opinion., not a big fan of that hood at all.... it looks like its for a nascar cavalier w/ a big v8 under it!

I love the front bumper but I'm sure whatever you do will look nice

the only time I like shaved inners is with the BC2 rear.

You and your car are HOT.

Blue ACE, thanks for the compliments. I'm like you, I like the wild stuff and I'm not about the JDM craze at all....

STYLEZ24, thank you.

Adam (StealthCavalier), the rear of the car has a lot in store for it....and maybe after the car is painted, you'll like the hood better (if I do keep it). But thanks anyways!

Hmm, maybe a nice type j rear would flow nicely. Love the car, loved the old one, and can't wait to see this one painted. Great job.

Metal-Matt, thanks for the compliments...I still miss my old cav and I'm determined to make this cav many times better than it ever was. I thought about a type-j rear myself....know anyone that has one for sale??
