    Jordan,

    As someone who knows EXACTLY how difficult it is to mold, bond, and finish custom parts, it's lookin good.

    The rain gives a VERY COOL EFFECT on your car. Weird. I can't wait to get my rear apron on, but the 97 M3 has me a bit occupied now...

      TJ and Ryan, you guys are like little kids in a pissing contest. All i have to say is Ryan has to deal with snow in the winter, so I think that gives him another inch to his plow...

      I am just messing with Ryan, don't get your panties in a bunch.

        OK, alot of you have asked for daylight shots but I have been busy working fulltime now :)

        Anyways, today is my first day off, so I took the chance to mount up the bumper and snap a few shots.

              on that last picture where the rear bumper attaches to the fender, the bumper stick out a little... is it supposed to be like that? is it just the angle?

                It does stick out a little, it has to. 88+ cars are indented there, 87 and older arent. The angle does exagerate it tho.

                    Car looks badass Jordon. Have you thought about using mtech2 front and rear bumper instead of the standard plastic bumper? I bet it would really compliment the shaved body

                      Your drivers sidemoulding shave job is wavvy
                      Your front bumper is crooked or your valance is bent
                      There is tape residue on the rear window
                      Rotors need to be turned

                      Based on that, I'm gonna have to say it looks like crap. Sell it and buy a Metro. Better yet, we'll trade cars. ;)

                        Nice. :D :D :D :D

                        When are you going to start modding that sweet Yellow Escort Touring sitting next to it?

                          That may be because I am afflicted with OCD but does the ridge where the moulding was on the door look markedly different from the ridges on the fender and rear quarter.

                          Except for those little nitpicky things that have to be worked out on every project I must say its a pretty impressive custom. Hell, all I did was drill 6 holes, pop in some nylon body nuts, and then screw on a very expensive piece of CRP. That IS custom.
                          Im now E30less.

                            I bought a used e36 M3 rear bumper last weekend, got it SO CHEAP I just couldn't pass on it. Besides, whats a little more added to my monthly minimum on the CC 8)
                            Jordan, you really shouldn't live your financial life worrying about the minimum payment. And I hope you are paying more than that anyway or you will be in debt for a LONG time.

                            Sorry if I didn't get that it was a joke, just trying to help people stay out of the financial wasteland I used to wander in.

                              Jordon, those multiple angle shots are pretty cool.....which gives me an idea.

                              When you get finished, done painting and all (which won't be for a while obviously).....take a round of similar pictures. And then get a 360 degree view made of it. That'd be fooking sweet! :twisted:

                              Just a thought that I got looking at those pictures. :)

                                Word. Credit cards are the devil. :twisted: With these cars it's too easy to get burried to the point that it's almost impossible to get out of. I know from experience. I only use them in emergencies now.
