Hey im new here, just wanted to share some pics.. Know its not your style with your JDM conditions, but let me know what you think. Plans for this summer is to completly remake this car. Stock rearbumber with lip, JDM tails, Clear "jdm" black headlights with jdm ambers, volk or work rims 16". And a kopper/bronze/gold color instead. But here is what it looks like atm.

Flame away:hammer: And as i said, it will be totally re done for the summer for a more clean look, but as for know, this is the "trend" in Scandinavia.

Quality is good, of course you have to seal them with silicone or something like that, so no water is running in to them. But that is kinda natural on aftermarket lights. Try searching for 'acemotors' as i wrote he sells them.

This weekend we will maxe a flexpipe on the dp, cause it's way to stiff. And i'm thinking of turning up the boost a little more.

I will get a new stock trunk, and on sunday i will get the small rust in the fenders fixed. Then week 9 it will be at the paintshop:- )

I do actually like the color that was on that car. It would really stand out if done right. Good to see someone showing this thing some love and not just junking it.

i think he was refering to your welds or the condition of the car in those first pics. thing about welding is as long as you get the proper penetration it will still be a solid weld no matter what it looks like. i used to weld like that don't be discouraged.

Well did'nt do to much work on the welds, cause i was gonna put powerwrap the entire way up. Until i realized that then i wouldnt be able to get the bolts out holding it on to the turbo... doh:-o

THAT SUCKS!! Hope it's easy to fix.

I have to say the only really ugly thing about the car at first was those tail lights. The rest was clean and balanced. It's when you mix different front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts, hood from different kits, throw crome in random spots, etc etc that makes us cringe. A well done ricer isn't bad because at least the style is cohesive thoughout the car. Some show cars look ugly as hell cause theres too much shit going on.

Sucks about the shaved handles. I would love to shave mine, but not 3 weeks ago I had to climb in my car from the back because my latch was frozen shut. Not just the dor was frozen, the latch was stuck so pulling the door handle didn't do SHIT. Well, come to think of it, that would mean I would be no better or worse off with shaved handles. Drop down back seats FTW!

yeah it really sucks. I think its because, one week earlier. My batteri died (forgot to turn of headlights) and since i dont have any keyholes i couldnt turn of my locks. So we had to open the hood from underneith - we did, but something must not have bin sitting right (obviessly). But just pure suckage. New hood costs 400$ and window almost the same.

@Haysoos, wait n see my new handless when its gets done, think they are gonna look nice, no keyhole and molded in to the car.
