Scotty Dont's Progress Thread

[Scotty Dont]

[mrzabala]

Wow that hood is great. Way to be JDM. Mother ****er, you just been

I am your Father Scotty Dont!!!!!!

^^

I'm loving the hood man. Good rattle paint job. I too have delved into the redneckness of spray can paint jobs. My previous car had paint peeling off the hood, roof, and trunk, all in the center. I knew that I wasn't going to have the car for more than a yr or so, but didn't want the peeling paint and rust. I parked it in the garage, taped off some lines, sanded it, primered it w/several coats of spray can primer sanding in b/t, then white paint on top (the car was blue). I had a nice big racing stripe down the car. It added like 25 hp easy . It looked pretty good too actually, but was so ghetto. I sold it and bought the 240. I don't have any pics, lost them awhile back when my hard drive crashed

I would say it looks good but that hood looks horrible.

[mrzabala]

it be better if the car was white, but dont smack on the JDM tytness.

[R6_240sx]

LOL leave the hood.

I like those dual halogens way better, the triple halogens look like the car is on crack.

[le_ryan]

haha, not leopard print sir. skull and crossbones. it didn't come out as well as I had hoped actually. once the material was on the door I decided it was to "busy". now it's just a matter of finding some spare time to redo it in something else.

Nice. Cool hood. I want the Origin hood with the tidal wave motif on it. Super sweet. But other than an air brushed Virgin Mary (which I may be doing to mine), the rising sun is super bad a$$.

haha, that would be sick. do the last supper on your hood.

[le_ryan]

not really feelin the pattern, but it looks like it was done very nicley.

[Scotty Dont]

thanks. yeah, i liked it better off the car. i was thinking of going a lot cleaner this time around and getting the material that they use on WRX and STi interiors.

is it that suede type material ? Thats what ill be doing my doors this time too, dark black suede

[HashiriyaS14]

LOL, goddammit.

I was going to get a spare white hood and do a "rising sun" on it, just to throw on the car once in awhile when I felt like being ridiculous.

Nice work.

[exode]

lolz i would've faded black gradient on the borders of the hood so it blended a little better

still cool jdm 1337ness

[Scotty Dont]

yeah. it's called Alcantara I believe. i just gotta find a place that sells it now. I don't think Joanne Fabrics is gonna have it. lol.

i dig the hood that is some real work. If that's your DD, aren't you annoyed when people stare at your hood because of the appealing hood?!

[white90esex]

so many things about that car make my head hurt.

I like the rising sun though. I allways wanted to do that on the hood of our 510 cause that would be 100% JDM Tyte YO!

ITs allright. Im sure it will look like 90 times better with some real paint.

just got done with the hood yesterday. i've actually on driven the car maybe 20 minutes since i finished it so havent really gotten to many 2nd looks. just got done washing it, pics to come shortly.

[Scotty Dont]

if that's the case dude, you're taking this car way to seriously. but out of curiousity, other than the interior, which i've stated i myself have turned against, what "makes your head hurt"

[Scotty Dont]

Cleaned the car up this morning to snap some pics. Lemme know what ya think. These are all thumbnails btw. Click for fullsized.

[AmoebAssassin]

Nice hood, but plz get wheels + drop!

[whiterps13]

I guess its pretty funny, but people that dont know you might not get the joke. I'll put it this way, I wouldnt drive the car like that.

But good work, I understand your intentions.

[Scotty Dont]

Already on order are some KTS coilovers. Hopefully they'll be ready for install in about 2 weeks. Supposed to have a wicked snow storm sometime this week, so there's no point in slamming it now. Wheels are soon to come. No idea what I want really, so we'll see when the time comes.

One step ahead of ya

i'm ballin on a budget, so i work with what i got.

[Dattebayo]

an air brushed Virgin Mary (which I may be doing to mine)

WTF is wrong with you? Thats sooooo tacky. Its like the ultimate beaner banner.

[Scotty Dont]

[homeslicej2]

What's the problem? knock sensor not working or something?
