Black240: I'm not trying to be critical of his project. Of course he can do what he wants to his car, I'm just thinking that instead of making it bling, he could improve the driving experience with some go-fast parts. It's my opinion that a car which could be called a true *driver's car* should be built as such.

well i decided to do the paint job first only cause it was disgusting. NORMALLY i would have gone straight to an sr20 but i just wanted this done asap. It really was a nasty sightto be seen scratched up and dented. But the rest of the car was mint. TRust me i have performance in mind just wanted to learn all i could about sr20's b4 i jump into one. DOnt worry me and my crew are very against rice and apc and all those companies

there's an old boy that brings his chopped '50 Merc into my shop for alignment about once every two years. He's spent the better part of his life working on this car. He brings it to the shop in a climate controlled trailer. He estimates a total investment of $250K, paint costing upwards of $50K. OR

maaco can slap some color on your car for cheap.. like $249 or something.

I spent 1140 in the end and it came out sick. Looks good but now needs the balls to back it up.
