End of season improvements!
Sunday, November 04, 2007 5:55 PM
Well, I got the bug to do some changes before I have to winterize the cav, so I painted between the spokes black and theres a small ridge in the middle of each spoke and I painted that black too. It was a lot of taping but I think it turned out very well. I also have been wanting to paint the inside of my headlights for a while but I was afraid of opening my headlights but after seeing qwik2k2z24s fall pictures it pushed me to do it. I love the way they turned out! Anyway on to the pics,

Heres a before:



And now:














Anyway, thats about it. C&C welcome!

Looks a lot better. The headlights and corners look PS'ed in there in some pics haha. Good pictures though!

I did PS them a little but just to brighten them up a little and make the colors pop, it was an overcast gray day here and the pictures turned out kinda flat.

Qwik I feel honored that I inspire you, your car is currently my background on my computer at work!

Thanks!

They look outlined, i just wish the fogs were white..... would flow better. or matching orange to the corners. just so they matched.

i think the yellow fogs are a bit too much, BUT.... this car is beginning to get amazing. keep up the good work!

I really like the fogs yellow, I did contemplate doing them orange to match the corners though. It looks really cool at night with the bright orange corners, blue headlights and yellow fogs.

I will be ordering some C/F door handle covers and B pillars from Josh at IZNTRBL hopefully in the next week or so! After that I can't think of any other exterior things I want to change. Any ideas??

Very nice. Huge improvement to the wheels. They are so well defined with the black.

Had a few requests for closer pics of the wheels, so here they are:








Any yes I realize my calipers need paint, a couple summers ago I smoothed all the writting on them down and polished them a little and hit them with a couple coats of high temp clear, it was just an idea. It actually turned out pretty good, but now they are kinda turning gold.

Thanks!

Goldlines and Stock struts, no need to flame me, i know its wrong. I am saving for some Koni Yellows, but its hard to slip that much past the wife.

Thanks!

Well, even though my post hasn't generated a lot of interest (Qwiks post gets 3 pages, I barely get 20 replys, )
I uploaded a few more pics that I liked:







and last I messed with photoshop a little thought this looked cool.


Thanks for looking!

dam I love the look of your car for some reason lol

not feeling the yellow for the fogs it would look better amber or clear IMO

BTW how do you guys do that to your headlights? I have been wanting mine done for two years but im too afraid to do it

Thanks, it is very easy to do the headlights, I had also been wanting to do it for years but I was scared to open them up. But, it it very easy no need to be afraid! nullGo here for a nice how-to. Only thing I did different was didn't tape the bottom part of the headlight and painted that as well.

Thanks!

well you did a very nice job and also just wondering are those toyo fenders or do you just have the toyo side marker?





Re: End of season improvements!

"Puts on flame suit" No toyo fenders, just the lights on USDM fenders.

Thanks!
