DTN - Yep, just a little glitter. Actually, a lot of glitter!!! Dont know how I got it so even, didnt even notice it until you said somethin.... Thanks!
UrSONvs - Thanks man. I've always like things short, simple, and to the point. By the way, hows your stockpile of parts coming along? I know you got some things up your sleeve to start revealing here pretty soon...... fing02.gif

the stockpile is slowly becoming smaller, but not much since you know what i got .
I will reveal pics on my 1,100th post, since i missed my 1,000th post, haha. fing02.gif
there isn't one thing I would change about your car bud. in fact, its actually making me want to get a RD1.

looks awesome man, especially the hood. i'm being super critical, but i'm not so much a fan of that extra bulge on the rear, and perhaps consider axing the supports in front of the intercooler on the front bumper(are they there stock?).
but it looks incredible, and the craftsmanship as always is impeccable.

I'm gonna have to say, no. do not hack that F2 bumper plz.
You have good ideas and good taste Tom, glad the car is turning out the way you envisioned. Remember that time back in Nopi-Phoenix '05 when I had a little can of black spray paint and a tiburon sticker in the Butterfly Font and you thought of tinting the 3rd brake light out with the black spray paint making a silhouette of the tiburon sticker, so when I hit the brakes "Tiburon" lights up in red only??
...you should do that too.

Dude, I remember that!!!! That was a cool idea. I take only partial credit though. You had the balls to actually try the idea out! fing02.gif I know you posted pics somewhere?
Thanks for all the comments folks! cool.gif hail.gif fing02.gif
It has its few little flaws here and there. I am no body professional. I do have a few sags in the clear that should buff out no problem once the paint has had time to cure. (Lucky for me the car is white! No one noticed at the show, even my buddy who is REALLY picky with his MR2 never noticed and even after I showed him he still wants me to paint his car this summer.) One of the side skirts isnt quite perfect. They were a little warped from being stored for so long. But in the end, I am very happy with the results. The few flaws I can live with and am just proud to say I did all the work myself.
Yeah, no way am I touching the front of the car. The F2 bumper is not only one of nicest front ends IMO, but it also has some great history behind it. Its stayin "stock" LOL!! But thanks for the critique tibby01. I really dont mind people being super critical. I went to music school for 7 years so I am use to very critical reviews of my performance and talents. Its well recieved.
SOCKS - definitely man! I cant wait until I get a day off and can head up to the mountains with the car and my camera!
