I spent less money on my ride than you spent on yours, because I didn't pay someone to do the work for me, like you. I know, you were going for the sleeper look. Well you succeeded, because you put me to sleep. Plus, when you buy a new car that does not make you original.

Did you feel left out of this thread? Is that why you commented?

If you are only going to leave deconstructive criticism, then don't comment.I'm not going on your thread and knocking your basically stock car.

By the way "C-cup", be sure to dry the water behind your ears up, because your looking a little green.

Thank you for welcoming me to NICO Dangeris.
You just made my night... honestly hilarious! Also, I was never saying I was original because I have a newer car. In fact, I could care less about originality. Read before you write.

As Ranga so eloquently put it... "I'm at a loss for words here. Not sure if I should be impressed or shocked that the rear doors look to still be there but no door handles"

Dont forget about Throck!!! where has he been?

I enjoyed the read here, thanks everybody.

As for the car - I am very impressed with the work and paint job. If the back doors dont work then i agree with the previous posts about the functionality failure.

Welcome to Nico!

I agree. to me your coming off as being very full of ur self because your car is different and thus you feel your better then anyone else that didn't do something like what you did. everyone has different tastes and some are more extreme then others. that aside. looks pretty awsome and i like it. pretty good vid as well
Sorry Wade001, I didn't mean to come off as arrogant. I'm actually a very commendable guy. Even-though this thread would lead you to believe differently.

Thank you for the car and vid props.

Alright, now that we are all friends. We can play a friendly game together. There are only 3 rules to the game. Rule 1- No looking or peeking. Rule 2- No talking or making noises. Rule 3- Do not stop until everyone finishes. The game is called "circle jerk." LMAO, J/k, hahahahahhahhh. Please, don't be upset Big_rig, I was just joking. I mean, didn't you want this beautiful story to have a "happy ending???" I did...

Thanks for welcoming me to the Douche Bag Club, Big_rig.So, do we get DBC membership cards or a DBC jacket???

If you wanted to know how much the exterior job was, then you shouldn't of asked in a condescending fashion. I don't know of any new cars that cost less than $1,000, but apparently you do. Well, what is it?

Think before you write "C-cup."

I can most def appreciate all the work you put in to your car becuase i dont even have the time or knowledge to committ to a project this big. for that i say

but becasue we all have different tastes in cars, i would have to say its def not my style and would not want my to car to look like that.

but welcome to NICO, im sure your knowledge will be useful here.

You're correct, your time is likely worth a lot less than mine.

You should have wrote, "You're correct, it would have taken you (Custom101) a lot less time than it would have taken me (C-cup)."

If you had attempted something similar to this on your ride it probably would have taken you 4 times as along to complete it. So I understand your logic. Your lazy. Instead of watching TV when I got off work, I worked on my ride. So, unless you were feeding the hungry or playing Big Brother to an underprivileged child, I think it is safe to infer your lazy. Stop assuming everyone is like you.

Thanks Dan. I am going to wait until the newness of this project wears off.In the future I'll install the pop kit. Then I'll do some other goodies to make that new feeling come back.

Another one feeling left out.

Big_rig and I have been looking for potential candidates for the Head of DBC.You would be perfect.

All you have to go through is a little initiation process. First: Get on your knees. Second: Smile like a doughnut. Third: make a choking noise (it turns me on).

Don't worry, you'll do great in your new position.

Sorry to keep being so negative but I still don't get it.

It's NOT a 2 door because you have 4 doors. Was this just a clever title that almost matched up or do you really call this a 2 door sedan ???

It's cool.

I was only going for the look of a coupe on the exterior. The title is just a play on words. This vehicle has 38 cubic inches for rear occupants. In order for this car to be called a coupe, it would have to be less than 33 cubic inches of room in the backseat. Even if I had sealed the doors in the back shut, so you could not tell there was 2 rear doors from the outside, there still would be 4 doors. Only the front 2 doors would be functional though. The only real way to make a 4dr sedan into a 2dr sedan is to remove the rear doors, and weld on new sheet metal in their place, starting from the B pillar all the way to the C pillar. You would then mold the rear quarter panel, roof and side skirts. In addition, you would have to make new rear interior panels from fiberglass.

It is a lot of work.

Keep up the good grades. When you turn 25 you'll get another discount.
