Looks like im gonna get into my car again for the season...haven't had any real motivation till now!!



wingless for the homies (sold my itr spoiler)

any thoughts? any tips? its gonna take a long *** time though...got some dents and ---- to hide with the almighty bondo...

 

meh i liked it with the itr wing.
good luck...

 

Jay, your car is good as it is unless you want more performance out of it.

Keep it simple. More work/parts mean more $ to spend. It's going to be tougher especially since you are in school. Broke bitch. lol

 

just drop it more and get 16"s. and your good 2 go.

 

that is not my car btw, its some other teg painted flat black...

and im dropped on h&r race springs on 16"s!!!

glenn, about $60 on spray paint, primer, bondo wont hurt too much!!! ahaha and if i get the extra dough to put together a ls/vtec, i might do that too...but no big big plans...

just thought i would post all this cause ive lacked the motivation to put any effort into ms.africa for a long time...but now have recently found some...just looking for helpful tips and such for this project...

 

i think it looks good as it is...with or without the wing...i wouldn't touch it the body anymore and just do motor

 

jay dont spray paint it...your car is fine the way it is. spend your money on some performance stuff, or some suspension. or use it and go out for a lapping day.

did u get new rims? i thought those 5 star rims were 17's?

 

^+1

your car is fine, dents and ---- are unavoidable since it's daily driven.. you should see my car ;o

save up some dough and get some REAL rims.. enkie's.. volks.. MUGEN

 

what's wrong with your car now jay?

 

Dont rattle can it dude. Just get the dents pulled out. You'll regret rattle canning it. Car looks good as it is, it just needs some TLC.

Give it a good wax job come spring and you'll be in love again.

 

I agree with Jonn... just give it a good wax and live with it. I'm sure your cost will go over $60 by the time you're done.

I say it to all my friends... cars are meant to shine & be pretty!

 

if u really want that look then plez plez save up and go to a body shop and get them to stray it satin black...i would never rattle can the whole car...maybe a lip or wing if money was tight...

 

dent doctor can do wonders, he tapped out the dings i had in my car 2 yrs ago for super cheap.

i hate seeing ripples in my doors, personally.. daily driven or not

 

Jay, talk to the dent doctor that took care of the dents on my car. He did 5 dents for like 150.

Trust me, dont rattle can it, thats so ghetto.

 

The only mod you should make is to buy a helmet and come autocrossing!

 

Wing is on my car now. !!! HAHAHA

 

U've got 2????

 

+? for paintless dent removal.

 

damn if only I had the time today to do some pho-tochopping.

no, I gave matt the r wing with the jacked paint in exchange for Jays' which was more cleanlierness.

 

^^ dave, treat her well!!!

i understand what you guys are saying...but i mean i want to repaint the car down the road anyways...so if i take my time, do all the prep work/body work/primer on my own...my paint job down the road will be cheaper, and the whole process will be alot quicker..

we shall see...

 

it depends jay, some painters don't like to paint cars that they don't prep themselves. reason being is that if the prep is crap, then the paint will come out looking like crap, and that looks bad on them. post some pics of what's wrong with your car

 

i dont have pics...but pretty much when i took off the spoiler, on each bolt hole, paint was ripped off..im guessing due to the shop that painted my car slapping on the spoiler when the paint was still soft...

my passenger side rear quarter is dented to ----...my driver side fender is dented...my rear bumper is weird lookin...my front end is chipped to absolute ----...and im sick of black...its a bia to keep clean...

don't worry man.. dents and dings happen to us all. if you're sick of the colour, just paint it another colour. don't do flat-black. it's nice but so tacky.
