i told him to find a way to make the fenders functional since he will be going Twin Snails with a built motor in a month. lol


The car is far from done, next is engine then interior. He already has a BBK on order and SSR wheels on order.
He needs to paint those headlights black.

Just paint the fender vent and hood and that's it imo.

The headlights are stock, can't really say anything against that.

And I like black wheels on blue cars.

How is the fender painted weird? he left the vent CF. He is building a set of quad projectors so thats why his lights are stock. Black hood? It looks CF to me... as for the wheels they are his temp wheels, he has SSR wheels on order along with a BBK

The car is still a work in progress. Its far from done

me too, i think it would flow better with the fenders but its not my car. The owner is happy and thats all that matters

i cant wait till his brakes and wheels come in... he is dropping in a fully built motor with twin snails in the bay in a month, then after that he will work on the interior.

Car is going to be beast

The problem with custom paint alot of the time is that you can't really see the difference until in person...the cream looks good though

what equipment did you use to paint the entire car in your garage?

I wanted to get a old datsun and paint it myself, but I don't know what exactly I need.
