hold the phone, you turd those pics are hard to seer the whole car. how about some better shots.

Nice ride! How big is that cowl? How did you create the shark gil vents?

 

4 inch cowl, grill is stock with some custom fiberglassing, car is back in getting its paint finished, exhaust is going threw the body and is being lowered

 

AND YES THEY ARE 18 ZR1'S

 

Sorry I meant How did you do the vents in the fender?

 

there just z3 fender vents we molded in

 

I really like the wheels. The tails seem cool, but it is hard to tell.
The pics still suck. They are the type of pics often seen on shady ebay cars with something to hide. I'm not saying anything about the quality of your work, just that better pics would give us a better idea of your level of craftmanship.

 

Very cool maro.But like 18inchboyds we need better pics

 

these picutres are actually wayyyy to big, i purposly took them big to shw detail but they were to large to post, and this was the next size to fit, i will see if i have any pictures i took of just the z3 vents or just the tails

 

Wheels
Vents
Taillights
Hood


It would look infinity times better with a flat stock hood.

 

I have more pictures to post, but there all going to be the same size, as far as the hood, honestly im not feeling it yet either, will see waht i think after it gets lowered and its paint job completed

 

unless that car can do wheel stands i'd loose the hood as it doesn't fit the lines at all. since it's not finished i'll wait to make any comments, looks nice so far with the remaining touches.

 

Or an SS hood

 

we originally ordered the ss hood, we spent a long time waiting for it and canceled the order, the owner liked the cowl more if it was mine at that time i would have went with the ss or a small cowl, he had bigger plans for the engine then we will have. o well when its all doen i will see what i think of it, i have seen a few with the big cowl that i actaully like, so im gonna try to lower the stance and see waht that brings to the table

 

Ditto.

 

they way i look at it you made it sound as if you were building a caliber car that would step up things a notch. raise the bar and make people notice. these are things that require all of your modifications to flow well with one another. right now in small pictures i don't see anything that would make someone want to have a "custom" shop do work for them. but there are only a few things throwing it off from looking clean. the hood and stance is definately a few of them.

not saying you don't have a nice looking car. can't tell from pictures anyhow. the color choice is unique along with a few of the mods that are just different enough to set you apart. just one of those things i'm sure many would have to see in person. however right off the back that hood is a definate no go if your customer plans on competing in shows or anything along the lines that those custom mods would have brought him. if it's a drag car then loose the 18's.



i'd like to see that color in person though, hopefully we'll see you guys at superfest in a month or so.

good luck with finishing it.

 

I Know what your saying, this isnt really a car to do "custom" work to, my goal with this car was to make it look the way I would have wanted it to look when you buy it straight off the floor, and when its done it will, if that means me loosing the hood, then thats what will happen in the end, but at this point and after all the time i have invested in prepping the hood, im willing to lay the last few coats of paint on it before my decision is set on whats gonna happen with it, its big thats for sure and it dosent flow with any of the lines on the car at all, and honestly i dont like it much either at the moment, but im willing to wait till the drop is complete and the paint is done to say how im gonna feel about it. thanks guys

 

I would have kept the grill black and to break up all that gray..also, what color are the tailights, are they grey

 

I kinda like the side vents just don't think its gonna look that good with hockey stripes.

The hood is def gonna hold it back though.

 

Looking good so far. Deff want to see pic's with paint.

I agree the cowl should be smaller. 3inch is perfect 4is to much IMO.

 

my buddy had a preylude with those fender vents and the cracked to **** and one fell out...they werent done properly at all. hope they hold up for u. looks good tho.

 

ok man, just post some pics of teh tailights so we know what the hell is going on back there.

and btw, it looks great!

 

thanks guys, grill is going to be black when its done, will get pics of the tails as soon as its out from getting painted

 

im really liking the fender vents

the tailights dont look bad but i need better pics to decide if i like em or not.

The hood looks good but i mean a 3 inch would better fit.

Car looks badass right now cant wait to see the finished project.

 

tails are taped in the pictures, they were tinted black though under the tape

 

In that case my only complaint is the hood
Which I know was't your decision to go with anyway..

 

thanks for everyones opinions I really appreciate it, pictures will be posted as soon as the paint is done , we have a few more decisions to make with it though, the hockey sticks are either going to be satin black or a slightly darker shade of grey, were also deciding if we want a flat clear or a normal glossy clear

 

I greatly advise you to go with a gloss clear..the reason is that with all that body work done, if you have a flat finish some may think of it as an incomplete car, as it will look that way to those who know these cars, plus you can't beat the look of a shiny f-body

 

very nice man, im really diggin it. especially the vents. i think the only way that color is gonna look good tho is if u get some simple black flames across the sides, nothin fancy.

i like the 4inch cowl hood. it looks aggressive n whenever i see one it makes me think theres somethin powerful under there (or should i say makes me hope).

im not a big fan of the rims, but thats just me, everyone else seems to like em

 

thanks again guys, im leaning more towards glossy clear as well, will see though we need to finish up the exhaust and lower it before that so i got one more day to decide
