This is before the body work. We didn't replace any parts either. Still the original smashed up hood and fender. If you look close you can tell it's a little off, but I'm not real worried about it.

Looks nice man. I really like the color....a lot. I don't like the wing, but it is not tacky (I just like coupes w/o em)

Nice wing, ricer! j/k

I might ditch my factory wing or get a small wangan wing.

Well the damage to the car was due to my stupid arse trying to use summer tires in the ice/snow. Lesson learned.

The wing is kind of a rare thing. I've only seen the one, and from what the guy told me, it was a discontinued item and was only released in Japan. So for those of you who want one like it, good luck. It took me a long time to find that one, but it was EXACTLY what I wanted.

I did have to replace the drivers headlight and the corner lens, but the hood and fender are the same. I didn't do it all by myself, but I was helping every step of the way and the guy I did this with taught me a lot. It was a great experience.

I paid much less than what I should have, but I work for a pool and spa store and so we traded services. Sorry, but I told him that I wouldn't tell anyone how much he did it for.

Sorry Dan, I just couldn't wait. I :bowdown to your superior picture taking skilz, but I'm going to be gone for 2 weeks, so I wanted to get pics up for people to see.

Sexy.. I like that charcoal/gunmetal color... I see you did it the right way and stripped most of the interior out as well? (I noticed the no back deck) anyways look nice. When you get back in town lemme know I've been wanting to hook up with some of you Lawrence/Topeka guys and see what everyones got. Mines slow and mostly stock right now :)...

Oh and I'm a mad picture taking foo... I'm always looking for new cars to play with my cameras on..

Bite me Sean. It had an interior when I bought it, but it was so nasty that I ripped it all out. I've got some newer stuff chilling in my room, but untill I know I'm going to be done getting greasy and getting in and out of the car, I'm just going to leave it. Plus I like to say it's for weight reduction. ;)

I am really impressed with the body work.I have had a small amount of auto~body experience and I know that what you had to work with was a mess.Why didn't you just run down to the junkyard and pick up a new fender and hood?LOL:dunce

I love the color also.Such a sleek and powerfull car.MAD PROPS!:thumbup

Thanks man, I appreciate it. The body work WAS a lot of work, but well worth it in the end. It still doesn't compare to that Z though...
