not bad. comin along. looks like you've got a LOT of sanding in front of you. not to sound like a *#%& or anything though and lord knows i don't know much about body work, but aren't you supposed to sand off the paint before glassing or filling? or at least like scuff it? idk. looks like you just laid all your filler over the paint with no prep. anyway, good luck. keep it updated.
looks good so far. keep working at it.
not to sound dick, but good luck with that...
for your sake, I hope the reverse lights dont go out...
at least the hood looks good.
...
I was going to say what in gods name did you do to that poor car. But I see your coming along pretty well with it, I respect the work. Get some sanding done and post more pics.
welll.................i like the direction, but damn thats the worst fill job ive ever seen. lol. and did you glass all that filled in tail and not weld? i cant really tell for sure in the pics
if so its gonna pop out eventually. but keep us updated...i like where the look is goin. id like to see it finished.
I cant believe that you just used filler and bondo for that tail light. That WILL crack and eventually fall out.

I'm with him but what did you use to mould that it looks like contact cement or something? also theres a lot of bondo just hope it doesnt expand or shrink any cause you'll have major problems
Yeah, I like your Ideas as well, but hopefully a little more body work to smooth everything out will do it some justice.. Just keep it up.

for the love of god i wish people would learn to do body work the correct way...........
lol @your intake...
looks like a paraplegic put it together lol....
ummm..hope that whole bondo job isnt for long term becuz its def going to end up cracking on you man..if i were u you iw ould start all over and bring the fenders and quarter panel down to bare metal and then where your seems for the flares meet your car iw ould take 80 grit over them to thin them out a bit and then glass them..then sand then do a little bondo job to make everything smooth..more bondo= more risk of cracking
ok thanks for the comments my backup light its ok i have take one headlight on cavalier and i open it...fiber glass puty primer and i have some work i juste start this car abouth 2 month i go on the school and i work... i cant drop the cars in montreal city with my body kit...is touche the ground.... sorry for my english:S
yeah, a big WTF on the intake.... Trust me, thats more restrive than it looks. Being as the inside of it not being smooth,
your going to get horrible air velocity.
If your gonna cheap out on the intake, just buy a Civic intake. They work fine on the 2.2OHVs. Or hell, buy a Ebay company's intake.
they are only like $20 with shipping. Cheaper than what you paid on that intake.
my comment may seem negative but it can be used in a positive way.
...
i know i have change my intake
WOW, thats all i have to say... not in a good way.

On the other hand....you have other fingers.
I just bought a 20 inch widescreen ultrasharp flat pannel..I'm going to have to subscribe to the high quality porn places now......damn
well that bondo is gonna crack and fall out. you can still see where the inner lights use to be. i dunno. i like the ideas alot but the work isnt there yet.
~shakes head~ give up now, it will get worse before it gets better..
