Pictures Pictures Pictures!! :D FINALLY!

I FINALLY got some updated pics of my car with the bra on, and a better pic of the RS sign I put inside. Here we go...enjoy, and leave comments! (Sorry bout the grainy-ness, only scanned them at 75 DPI, the origionals look WAY better)

Here is some more, for some reason I couldn't put them all in one post....huh. oh well







This one is kinda blurry even in the origional






This picture looks really good I think, even in the scanned one


Last but not least, my Alpine Type-R 12"


So what ya all think? I don't think it looks to bad, and it will look hella better when I get it repainted and the SS hood put on. And I am building a different box for that Alpine too, cuz that box SUCKS. I borrowed it from a friend who had that box in his truck.

Ford Escape

Other than the front and the bumper, the paint is in very good condition, only a few chips here and there. The bumper looks like it has been repainted before (its darker than the rest of the car, can't see it in the pics though) and they forgot to add the flex additive because its all peeling off. I don't like showing the picture, but here it is. I don't like showing the other 2 either, but I did, oh well.

I wonder how much it would cost me to get the bumper repainted...Im hoping I can just repaint the front end and not have to buy a new one, but if I cracked it from hitting that ford escape...there goes my SS Hood I can strip the bumper and front myself, that would definately save me some money.

Looks good, but I don't like the bra. My car has some front eng damage similar to yours, but I still won't put a bra on it.

I hated looking at that every time I went to drive...I had to cover it up, it drove me freakin nuts. That, and everyone asking what happened to my car. If I could get some panties for the rear, I would till I could get it repainted...I just dont like it being messed up like that, especially both the front end things were my stupid mistakes.

Ahhhh, ya it is, 12" blacklight. I need to find a new place for it, it stands out way to much, and I need to put it on a switch. But it casts a cool glow over the front 2 peeps and since my friends usually wear white they are alwayz purple when they're in my car.
