well since i had some free time today at the shop there was some dents in the door that were annoing me! so i pulled 2 dents on the front fender side of the door and a crazy deep one under the door handle, also found some rust developing under the window seal under the paint, so cut, ground, glassed and bondo filled em up, only an hour of work, but one less thing i have to do later lol

ok well i have not been on in while for an update so here we go.motor came in one day early...yay

so as you can see i was like...wow look at the ugly valve cover.....lucky me i hapen to be a painter so guess what i did? took the cover off, degreased it and sand blasted her down!!!!!

here she is in fluid resistant epoxy primer.



not that you can realy tell but i mixed up a special color of fire engine red and imron 5000 silver effect.



after the paint dryed for 72 hours i took it over to the table mill and took 1 thousandths of an inch off the letters.





then i took a half inch plate of aircraft aluminum routered the bottom radious down to match the stock plastic center cap, drilled the holes and counter sunk them as well, de-bured the edges, hit it with 1500 grit buffed with mothers mag polish...walah! new center cap (the plastic stock one was broken)







and here she is sitting on the motor all ready to rock this weekend.









P.S. the back two mounting screws for the center cap are at work getting measured to replace them with chrome studs..

Not bad so far actually, haha! Need to update my sig picture too when I get the chance. From the view of my current sig pix, I have a S15 OEM front bumper, Aerocatch lockable hood pins, and running 17 IN bronze 5 Zigen FNROC1 in the rear.

In progress in getting done:
Get S15 core support
Install my 8000k HID's
Sand and black primer my fenders and sideskirts
Bolt my stock exhaust system (been running LOUD, now getting sick of the open catback)
Install inner and outer tie rods
Alignment
then install the 17 5 Zigens in front

extremedimensions.com has the cor supports now dude. and there cheep. word of advice on the fenders is get someone to spray some acuglow highbuild primer, the stuff is dirt cheap from sherwin williams and it has zinc chromate in it (anti rust agent) plus you can block sand highbuild way easer then regular primer and the end result will be 75 percent less orange peal..just throwing that out there and how about some pics?
