Nice pics. It's about time. It's funny how great the paint in the front looks on the web.... then again, I would be satisfied with your paint quality on my car as well.

I'm spending this week getting the uni-body straight and other odds and ends. It's pretty easy to get to now.. The parts just went back to the paint shop today. I also got the new engine on a stand and am starting that out. Funny story, on the way to a pizza place near the shop, a Mexican dude in a fully fiberglassed, riced accord looked at my car and just shook his head in disappointment (according to Micah).

These are old pictures.. I had the white body panels only on for about a week. I'm going to do a proper photoshoot (unless anyone has pics from the meet from last month). Anywho, I'm pretty happy with it now. Someday I might weld in a new front clip. We did get the uni-body aligned way more than it was before, but it's still not perfect. Check it out

Yeah, this is my 2nd right side fog I'll need to replace. I seem to have the worst luck with road debris.. So, when I replace this one, it will be number 3! At least I'm not on that many oil pans.. I'm going to try and smoke the next set (the right way)
Yeah, I was scepitcal when my friends broke out the fork lift. I actually had to walk away and take a breather outside. But, it worked out pretty well. It's as straight as you can get it without a new front uni-body. I'm still not to happy with the bumper (you can see it under tension). But, I'm going to move onto something else now..
It's Brilliant.. I love that color in all its glory.
I paid $2400 for the first spray, but the dude didn't get the clear right.. So, he sprayed it the second time for free.. Well, I ended up flowing him $300. Ohh well, I'm pretty happy with it now.
Nope.. It's a stock one with a Ryan G splitter (again, thanks Ryan for a great product, next time I'm going for the large one though :D).
Thanks for the compliments everyone. It's appriciated. Cheers and Happy Holidays!!Comment
