I know, no updates lately.

But, car will be going in for paint either tomorrow or wednesday.

 

I got the fenders and headlights off too but by the time I got it done it was too dark to take pics. I'm getting out of school early tomorrow to work on the car again, so I'll take pics in the morning.

The reason I'm doing this is because I'm putting a 99-00 front end on the car. In order to do this I need to put new fenders on the car. Since they were bought straight from Certifit, the shop painting my stuff primered and painted the edges to keep the parts from rusting where they would never be painted (IE mounting points etc). So, tomorrow I have to mount the fenders, make sure it's where I want it to be, pull off the rest of the little **** and then drive the car down to the paint shop. Yup, that's right, I'll be driving it without bumpers, headlights, hood, grill, wheel wells, side mirrors, or door handles.

This should be hella funny. [8D]

 

Cant wait to see the final outcome. Looking sweet man.

 

watch out for po-po's...they love issuing fines for driving like that

 

Yes listen to Roto when I am doing the ride-a-longs for my police cadet thing, a vehicle like that would probably get towed. I almost think you might be better off dismantling it there at the shop.

 

towing is only $30-40

 

damn that intercooler is out of control......lets get this paint going bro!

 

No fenders.





No wheel wells.



New fenders.





Hood and headlight test fit. Pictures don't do the hood any sort of justice at all, it looks incredible.





That's how I drove it to the shop. LOL!

 

daaaaaaamn, just what i like to see

 

Got some goodies back today.





The bumpers are also done, and they look amazing. I'm picking them up tomorrow as they were still drying when I picked up this stuff today. Car is completely sanded down, all the dings and dents removed. Smoooth as butter, probably going to get sprayed on Monday. I should have the actual car back soon, in which case I will reassemble it again and bring it back for the hard buff and shine.
