i suppose youre fishing for comments. errr compliments shall i say...

as much as youre going to hate to hear this, i think the car looked 100x better in the before pic. the stickers and unneeded hood pins and stuff just isnt doing it for me.

credit is given for it properly being done but im just not a fan, i dont know how else to bluntly put it without offending you.

I thought he had a cf hood.

 

[chriw21_2000]

Looks good!!! I'm thinking about graphics now. Dunno if I will or not though.

Laterz

 

[MrPikolo]

not my style, but looks good

 

[RipperXX]

^^^ what he said.

I would like it if it was not for the stickers.. there just to "in your face"




I like how the FMIC looks though.

 

[Raph]

so what colour is the new top,did you order a black one again or did you go for a tan top?

and rememberthis years 2004 meet is in April or May so hurry up!

the before and after shots really put all of the work into perspective. the only thing that i do not like is the side vinyl. it just seems like their is too much of it. i do like the vinyl on the hood. thats really different and it flows with the car. good luck with your rebuild.

 

[wastefuldreamer]

looks damn good

 

[Mo-Bo0st]

stickers and altezas are not so cool. If it werent for those things I think the car would look nice.

 

[racerecks]

how did it cost you to change the whole interior to black.. or did you do it yourself.. looks nice by the way.. props.

First off I agree on the stripes/stickers and they are history from now on.New paint will be subtle and not so "ricey". I liked them though ;-)
About "the unneeded hood pins", I dont get it really since I DO have a CF hood and it has blown up on my window once before I got the pins..so whats up with that comment?

I dont get offended by ppls opinion man Everyone has his/her taste and its the mix of all that, that makes the total so nice


MO BOOST

The "altezzas" (actually-smoked clear ones)flows alot better with the cars colortheme than stock red ones.Since everything on the car is either black/silver/chrome..the stock red ones stood out too much and ruined the entire purpose of having a colorscheme ya know.But once again..each to his own ;-)

RAPH

The new top is black again.I dont like tan tops on black cars :-(

RACERECKS

The interior is not black.I have a grey interior.-Only thing black is the stereoinstall in the back.Its a FG custom closure that I made. / Thanx


And finally: I didnt put this up to get compliments.I just wanna show how much difference it can make when someone is interested in working with his/her car and put time and money into it.Going from stock to whatever level of mods is not done without work, time and interest. Some like my car some dont..I like some cars, others I dislike.Its the taste between ppl and its all good in the end.No matter what though..I ALWAYS respect the time/money spent in other ppls cars and thats what I find important.I just thought it would be nice if ppl sometimes thought more of the work behind a certain car then the first impression and the look of the car. This is not ment to you guys who wrote here or about my car..its a general statement that I wish ppl could apply on more discussions.

So with that said..**/ PEACE!

looks awesome man

I actually like the smoked tail lights and the red eclipse in the center is bad ass.

I have the same subs except i have the 1206t's i think those are the 1006t's? I also have the same amps and head unit. I also have a Black convertible GS-T. DID U STEAL MY CAR?!!?

Looks great GJ

 

[Turbo97]

Oh, how many miles do you have?

 

[Hey-G]

looks good

BTW, if you want/wanted to keep up with the silver/black/chrome theme, why don't/didn't you keep the silver Eclipse lettering?

maybe look into it?

 

[am00re34]

I like everything, but the side graphics. The graphics on the hood going down to the bumper look good. I just think the side graphics are a little much. LOVE the intercooler. Not a fan of altezza's, but they dont look horrible on your car. Nice work

 

[meef]

i like it the way it is now. i wish i had a pretty system, amongst other things (things that go PSHHHHT for instance). anyways, looks noice. keep it up bro.

oh, by the way, where did you get your dash kit from? or did you just paint the pieces?

Reason being I made the Eclipse letering shine-through..and then I couldnt keep the lettering in silver ya see ;-)

 

[Raph]

you mean the lettering lights up?

 

[EuroGSTSpyder]

yes they do

 

[ArticNemesis]

I think your spyder is awesome. I think it was a good decision to remove the side vinyl. After christmas, when the money starts flowing again, I'm going to have to catch up to you with mods.

Very nice car, and I think altezza's done right will fit with the car. For me, The red back doesn't flow with an all white car, and smoking them isn't really an option, b/c I don't feel that flows well either. Guess I will see what comes about later after i get some cash coming back in.

Nice Car
