haha yeah, she's been kinda illiterate lately.

nah, I'm finishing painting the fenders and the driver's door so when I show up to Normal I don't look like a total ass clown with my unfinished body panels. lol

so im a total ass clown with no painted body panels at all?

lol cant wait for normal jigz

on to the pics
last day of school had my camera in back of the shop lol. so one of my friends wanted to model on my car.


clearance issues getting in my driveway


and my new muffler that will be on tomorrow


i hate the way my megan sounds so im going to try out the magnaflow if this sounds like crap, im going to get a megnaflow resonator.

[jimmy_o2]

try the Apex i muffler just in case u don't like this one that i know of Ivory G and few others and i have them and it sounds awsome

[WarmAndSCSI]

I wish Magnaflow would start TIG welding their stuff. Ah well, I still am a Magnaflow whore.

[Galant306m]

yea they seem good quaility but agreed to much splatter on the damn thing. the problem is im running catless which makes my car sound like beer farts on a sunday morning, and it makes it really hard to make it actually sound good.

[WarmAndSCSI]

Catless non-turbo four bangers sound like shit... actually all non-turbo four bangers sound like shit. It's kind of crazy how different the 4B11T sounds in comparison to the NA 4B11.

No offense. At least you'll have a nice muffler.

[Galant306m]

i know. Im just trying shit out lol and when i finish my swap it wont really matter to me lol.

[8g831]

Was is the process of heating it and the pos heat gun gave out,and i just bought that sh*t..well off to the store to return

[jimmy_o2]

U shoulda told me i got a heat gun laying around

[SPD_FRK]

so im a total ass clown with no painted body

I see a nice Dodge Dart in the background...running a 318/360 perhaps?

Don't feel bad about the body work...mine looks pretty bad with the paint cancer all over lol

[Galant306m]

yes that is a dodge dart with a 360 six pack. its the autos instructors car and its pretty sick.

[trickytrick]

That's not a car...

Oh yeah, I tinted the tails on the Evo.





I have to re-detail her as I made a bunch of swirl marks the other day. Yuck.

edit: aw crap, my registration expires like tomorrow. Stupid dealer better have my tags.

[VegasMatt]

Thanks, and yes, two light coats. I'd scuff them up before spraying. I may actually re-do them soon. Removing them for the first time is painful because the retaining clips grip pretty hard... potential paint damage galore.

I did. Put my plates on today. They were just chilling at the dealer waiting for me. Rather, plate. Not molesting my poor car with a front plate holder. The law can bite my ass.

Wear does your front plate go? I saw a WR at the dealer last week and it has it mounted on the left side of the front bumber right below the headlight. It had a body colored bracket that kept is straight. Looked good.

The Ralliart had it mounted on the center, look like crap.

Here's the valve cover picture he just sent me, he's about to do the candy red here in a minute:

[Galante]

What's going on with those parts? Are they getting powder coated?

[WarmAndSCSI]

It's a shame you're doing a rainbow theme and not just 2 colors...

I hope it doesn't end up looking like this:

[Serstylz2]

ive always wanted to paint my valve cover.. but isn't there a valve cover gasket you gotta replace as soon as u remove the valve cover? Screw all that

[fatal1]

the gasket cost like $10 for the 4cyl or something, i just baught new ones for my v6 for like $26 or something. your local auto store has them im sure

[silver01g]

I hope it doesn't end up looking like this:

HELL NO!! the only two parts that are gonna be chrome finish is the intake manifold and battery tray. only other two colors is your typical red valve cover and purple which will be the fuel rail something you would hardly see. it a small part so it wont stand out like the way that car has it.

this is the look im going for, not 100% like it but just enough:
