Some really good work but I'm afraid that if you ever hit your front bumper on anything, you'll have to rework all those areas that you've smoothed out.
Looks good though and would like to see some paint on it for sure.
Oh and welcome back to the States and back to doing what you love. Glad you're back.

While I have to admit it does look much better then before I never was a fan of that kit.

What really sticks out to me tho is that ungodly wing, please tell me you're not keeping.

Explains why you havent been in chat. Hahaha.

Nice work

I agree with Jeffie on the wing and whats going on with the fitment of the headlights?

pretty ballsy moulding teh front bumper on but good luck with it, i'd try and get the alignment of your hood and fender adjusted to look better, how that hood lines up with everying will make or break it,

other than the headlight fitment and hood fitment it looks great!

Yea I went back in and readjusted the lights, the hood is actually bend slightly on the right side, and the kit was sagging a bit so the gap looked like @!#$. its better for now, but soon im replacing the hood, so that issue will be gone, hopefully lol.

lol story about the wing... the wife loves it, cause she wanted an SRT-4(gay) so she bought the wing cause it looked like a neon(gay)..... while i was gone..and had it put on....i hate the dam thing...so as soon as i order my CF trunk, its a gonner.

Are you still planning an Eco swap?



Re: Project 97' Cavi

Ive picked up my eco, now just trying to find me a decent donar car, went to a few yards this weekend, I found one 03 cavi with a working manual tranny, mostly complete just a blown engine and rear end body damage, but they refused to sell me the whole car. which is a bummer. till i find something i ordered new tails.and looking into suspension options she needs to be lowered bad cant decide if i wanna bag or full coilovers.
