    Anyone have any advice about where to get pain. I decent want quality but it doesnt need to be OEM. I will prep it to near perfect and I know thats the crucial part to getting a good finish.

    For anyone stopping by this is what my car looked like pre-turbo/body work




    Sticking with the same suspension, wont be much different besides some front valance changes, roll bar, fresh paint, and rust delete haha

    Check out my Mid-Pipe feeler thread. We want to offer low price exhuast options so dudes can swap there car without ever needing to weld or go to an exhaust shop. The rest of the stuff is still top secret for now haha.

I really wanna spread out and hang out more with the community and I cant wait to bring the car out to meets and shows this summer. Especially becuase me and my buddy are thinking about bringing some really innovative new 24v swap products to market it help people out.

    Live once.


    You know your doing something right with your life when you wanna keep doing it until you cant keep your eyes open and you are so exhuasted you fall asleep right away when you get in bed and have a smile on your face.




    People weren't lying about prep being tough. Physically it isnt terrible but you end up obsessing over getting it perfect because you know you only have one chance to get it right. I barely got the hood done after working for several hours. And thats just the intial sand to get the paint chips smoothed down lol.

    They look fine to me. I'd double check that they are the right style plug though. (They should be)
