So, finally got the rest of the vinyl done
Snobeck came over tonight to give me a hand, he kicks ass with the vinyl bling :thumbup:Still have some more trimming to do tomorrow - and also going to let the red set over night since there's some really tough shit to deal with around the door/trim strip area - but it looks absolutely fantastic.

You gonna throw a gold stripe in there as well?
- .RJ - 03-09-2006
Not right now - maybe later. I'm still thinking about it.
If I redo the vinyl next year, i'd like to do this down the side of the car:

oh god, now you are a true ricer
- .RJ - 03-09-2006
was there ever any question?
I guess the "mugen power" decal on my rear window isnt big enough.
- Evan - 03-09-2006
bling!
looks good
better clean those wheels! ricers dont let their wheels collect brake dust
- .RJ - 03-09-2006
The wheels are going to get stripped and repainted - I'll stick with the white, although I didnt think I would like it when I got the wheels.

why is door handle taped up?
- .RJ - 03-09-2006
so i dont open the door before the vinyl is trimmed for the door

You should add the gold stripe and do gold whels.
Bling!

Busy night, sort of -
- changed the earl and filter (i've gone synthetic, hopefully to keep this lump together for 2 more track weekends)
- installed new d/s mirror, and painted both of them, gold mirrors bitches!
- adjusted sub belt - this took over an hour, what a pain
- removed pass seat/belts
- removed craptastic wink mirror, started on positioning of new convex mirror
To Do:
- fix header
- have Dave (SMSP) make me a 'real' exhaust (22" Resonator and turn down)
- pads/rotors
- catch can
- nut & bolt chassis
- strip/paint wheels
- buy new tires (holy shit, RJ is buying new tires!
hock: )
- Evan - 03-15-2006
saw the car tonight. it is truly bling-tastic. the gold kicks ass
- ScottyB - 03-15-2006
i gotta say, that's some hot sauce right there. when do the jackstands get painted matching gold?
- Jeff - 03-15-2006
Looks really nice RJ. Is the gold at the same tilt as the other two? Gold wheels would look nice, if you are getting tires it would be a good time to coat them!
