Z24 front and rear bumpers!!!(56k.. watch out)
Friday, August 08, 2008 10:30 PM
After a 3 and a half hour drive.. and a $140 ticket for my dam inspection sticker being expired... grrr..
But anyhow, on to the pictures.

Well it was a quick trip but fun(and pricey.. read on).
And well worth every drop of gas...

Sorry the pics suck...
His CavFire is pure love in person!!!!!

Waiting for him.. the last time the crappy base bumpers will be seen...



The J's...




Got the rear done..




Front...




At the gas station...(check engine light came on.. plus we needed some bawls...)




Gotta clean it up tomorrow... but its.. 1:30am and I'm tired.

Sorry its the best pictures I have at the moment.
After seeing Andy's Cavfire, I fell in love with the look of the black primer.

Nah, I'm going to primer the whole car, I just haven't been able to do more than one section at a time.
I'm hoping to have the rear end finished and possibly the doors.

Nice progress on the car.
Some better pictures would be nice as I can barely tell what the car looks like with all of the bad shots.
Car's looking good though so keep up the good work.

nearly done.
Just gotta finish up the doors and roof.

I'm loving the Z24 bumpers.
Esp the rear bumper, I love how it just hugs the exhaust tip.


Now just to find a set of Z24 fog lights and a front filler plate.

Looking good Josh.
Much nicer pictures you've got there.
The Sunfire sides go well with the Z front and rear too.

Yeah, I get that 9/10 times on the spoiler.
Its off of a Neon. Its going to be staying till I can get a new spoiler..
I'm looking at a trunk lid off of a 04 Cavalier with a spoiler.
Not sure if I want to buy it yet though.

When were you in GA? Andy lives about a two miles from me by the way, but I got a newborn, work nights, work weekends, blah blah you know the story so I don't get to visit as much as I should. If you're ever in town again lemme know though. I've got Andy's Z-24 bumpers from his Cavfire (cracked one of the sides , but like the sunfire skirts better also ), but I've been too lazy to sand them down and have my dad's neighbor (very good painter) spray them.

Still needs alot of work before the meet tonight, but I've removed the spoiler and the door/window visors.
And did some work on the trunk lid to cover the holes from the spoiler and smooth out where it was shaved.

They are getting welded tomorrow, I wanted something to keep water out of my trunk until I could get it welded shut so I used some duct tape and bondo to cover them temporarily.

Here are the newest pictures:



*dont mind the funnel, I was putting in tranny fluid and forgot to remove the funnel.. sigh*
