I like your car manny. How much did you get it paint? the front, top, mirror, and back. I want to do similar to you, so I just want to know how much you got it paint so I won't get cheated from the body shop.

NotUrAvg4G · August 26th, 2007, 11:05 PM

the headlights and taillights done go at all.

NotUrAvg4G · August 26th, 2007, 11:06 PM

...and de-badge that ass!

kxwhite · August 26th, 2007, 11:33 PM

i like the contrast of the crome headlights and taillights doesnt make the black and orange theme to much.

I know I guess I was so exited of having the CF hood and show off, that I though I will be able to fix the fitmen, but it didn't. I really hate Import Trenz for so crappy job.

j-rod · August 27th, 2007, 03:34 PM

ohhh sorry to hear that i do that from time to time to...

Kevolution · August 27th, 2007, 08:15 PM

$900? damn....thought it's gonna be somewhere around 300 to 500. I will ask the local body shop around here to see how much...hope it's not 900. thanks for the info.

Your car is coming along great... I really like it.

jb4g · August 28th, 2007, 01:59 AM

gorgeous, you have done some nice work. I think you should debadge it and paint the strip at the top of the hatch black with the roof

chowetime · August 28th, 2007, 05:30 AM

What a beautiful looking car you have done a brilliant job - just as a thought and I probably sound really dumb for mentioning this but on the hood... at the front it looks like it is sitting higher at the front than the rear could the front part be sitting on the adjustable rubber mounts and this is why it is not sitting as flush as it could I am guessing that you have wound those rubber mounts down as far as they go... maybe look at removing them altogether and see how it sits with out the rubber mounts then make up some other mounts to replace them

but other than that I love the car the kit as for the badges I say leave them on there - loving it

MannyGT · August 28th, 2007, 07:03 AM

Thank you guys.

JB - I got your idea, but I'm really done with the car for now, I spent so much money on this car so far that sometimes I regret it, but hey wats done is done. But I keep playing Lotto, if that happen then I continue adding up .

Cho- Thanks and to answer ur question, the hood on the driver side don't go down anymore, yeah the rubbers are not even touching the hood, the problem is at the hinch connection they did that part higher than the other side. If you look the passenger side the hood level with the fender of the car. Also If I push the hood down it levels too.

Whynottgeta4g · August 28th, 2007, 04:54 PM

Manny man Great job. I remember seeing that car at the Miami HIN last December and it is by far 10 times the car that it was then.

Where do you get different badges? I'd love to get black ones.

Also, I agree with the debadging the bumper idea. It makes the car look so much nicer.

I was looking for maybe carbon fiber letters or at least vinil CF material, debaging, idk guys, I really like the letters, but lets c what happen for now I will concentrate in fixing that hood.
