Hi guys.. I have been working away feverishly on my car to make it seriously custom..

And its nearly there.. couple of minor touch ups needed from where there were small runs, but you can probably see how far its come from the pics :)

I have painted it with Holographic Micro pearl flake, which shifts from orange to green or not at all depending on the light angle.

Here is the car looking neutral and shiny..

Some green...

Some orange..

In this pic you can see the shift.. follow up the rear pillar from left to right, the orange is shifting into the green

I have removed the Lexarse esque tails and replaced them with Kspec tinted ones.. Also ran a full debadge on the car and smoothed off the tail so theres no lock anymore.

And here they are at night with the custom made bulbs in use.. Evil Nike swooshes of doom !

And the new shooz, Tenzo Passion 5R

These are Ford Escort Cosworth vents.. They are vented properly and do their job very well :)

Custom mesh mouth I made, with the plate frame from a 1969 Cadillac Deville..

I replaced the OEM fogs with halogen spots because I grounded the tib on a high curb some time back and broke the focus adjustors from the OEM ones.. The OEM ones have been tinted black and now have red strobes in them, and the mesh is getting a 24" red streetglo (got all the stuff need to put them on next week :) )

Mirrors done.. Only accent part to do now is the door handles, they will also be black..

House of kolor kameleon dash accents.

Race seats

Harnesses

Tiburon RD2 black back seat.

Heater vents from doors capped off and clif designs 3.5" mids went in, custom grilles.

6.5" clifs in the stock locations (I need a multiple driver front stage to cover the bass from the MJ 18 lmao)

Yeah its undergone some pretty savage changes :fing34:

Not worth the time in my opinion.

Kind of a dick thing to say...

I roll in a BMW, but I'm not going to talk down about your chevy truck. At least not in a post you made about how much you liked it.

Bad taste...but I guess that's what we see from you time and time again...nothing new there.

To PG Pandy...Looks sweet! Love the paint! How on earth are you planning on having enough room for an 18 in there???

who are you? I have no clue what you're saying about what you see coming from me time and time again. seriously, its just what I thought about what he did to his ride. What's the point of him posting his ride if he's only gonna get positive statements about it?

Because he put a lot of time and hardwork into it; something you clearly don't understand (seeing as how you wouldn't even look for the power rating on an RLp-18 when it's listed on their site).

As for the car, looks great! The amount of work and money you put into it is quite admirable!

Very nice, I always liked pearl. Where's the sub? ;)
