    latest update on the eta project

    so I will give you a pic from each stage of the process and then the latest pics from today

    its been a short time coming. only about a month and a half and this amazing car that i got for free has turned out to be amazing!


    Brand new to me:



    New Tint and put bilstein sports and magnaflow muffler on it which made it sound perfect. not to loud but not to quiet.





    New Rota RB's
    love the style of them



    Eibach sports that I got for free from a couple of guys but i still have to wash their huge enclosed trailor for them sometime





    Stripes thanks to John Wolf and tucked bumpers

    http://www.wolfvinyl.com













    woulda taken more here but my camera died. cannons only last like a month on one charge haha



    how do you guys like it? big improvement ehh?!?!?!

    Big improvement, although visually, i would move the stripe over more and make it lest contrasty perhaps

    But still, looks good!

      towards the middle or to the left? i am thinking about having him redo it because the top is a little sketchy. he kinda pinched the lines.

      thanks man i am loving it

      any suggestions are helpful. I am still working how i want it to look.

      i love the tucked bumpers. anyone else that tucked theirs have to slowly drive their car in to a wall? not my idea it was my dads haha it worked tho. that was a messy job by the way haha

          you mean the flag on the drivers side corner? that would look tight. what do you mean by fogless?

          ya i think it could be moved over too. if i get him to replace it then i will move it over for sure. I am going to have to debadge the car to do so but that is not a big deal for me. I am going to do it anyway as well as put an IS lip on it that I am waiting for

          if i dont do the flag what do you think about doubleing up the stripes and just doing the same thing on the opposite side?

            Take off the foglights.. see how it looks


            I would check out the flag it would look cool, but the stripe and the flag would be too much, as well as a second stripes:up:

                Well is this a street car? i think its a bit much for a street car. if its a track car, then go for it!

                            um not a fan of the stripes but if your keeping them you should move them to the passenger side more

                              ya I am going to keep them this way for now until I get a chance to put new ones on I didn't really notice it but it should be more on the passenger side
