repainted the front clip and cleaned up some stuff underhood

Not bad, any more/better pics?

 

[BoostedinSoFla]

Yea, but now that you repainted the front bumper cover it doesn't match with the rest of the car at all and there's something about chrome projector headlights that I absolutely hate. On a side note, is that the Punishment budget manifold that you got there? How's it holding up?

 

[crimsondragon]

Yeah not feeling the chrome headlights. Would have been better off with the black housing ones. It would have gone well with the wheels.

 

[RedTurboEclipse]

not bad, not feeling the chrome projectors. The black projectors would've went better.

OEM 2gb Eclipse headlights and a front lip would suit the white talon well. A drop wouldn't hurt either.

Whats with the two black lines on the hood?

 

[AlaskanDsm]

I think its a vent for heat or for airflow.

 

[crimsondragon]

Also, color in the mitsu symbol black. It'll add a nice distinct feature.

looks sick man.....keep up the good work!

Also get some foglight bezels, they are cheap, like $20 each from the stealership.

 

[erald01]

Yeah those projector headlights and rims have to go. Otherwise looks good

I can't see my posted pics anymore? I have H&R lowering springs sitting in my garage right now. I lift the Talon with the stock GSX springs for the winter since I drive it year around. the snow got really deep this past winter. I cut slits in the hood and it was a waste of time. I am buying a carbon fiber hood this week. I originally bought black 2Gb style headlights , they weren't stock and they fit horribly. I was pissed off about it until I ran into a guy that had a 2G and had these projector style headlights but didn't like them because they were clears. These headlights fit way better. I'm not sure why. I'm going to skip the foglight bezels and put in ducts to the front brakes. The mistu symbol in the front is either going to get filled in or I'm going to buy one of those fancy dancy chrome mitsu symbols. That is a DNP exhaust manifold and it seems to be holding up just fine even thou it's discolored. A carbon fiber front lips is on the way.

Any kind of blackhousing headlights will be an improvement for your car scheme.

 

[bmoha2]

Eventually this car will be painted black so the headlights will have to go. Actually the newly painted white front clip is a pretty good match for the rest of the car I took these pictures after I put the front clip back on before I washed the rest of the car I have only gotten two coats of primer and 1 coat of color on the front clip so far. I first wetsanded it to 220 grit. I am still going to wetsand it again with 220 then 400 then 600 and then add two more coats of color and a couple coats of clear coat and hopefully the carbon fiber hood will be here by then.

Looks clean! I do like it

 

[GofaST4life]

What are those two slit things in the hood?

 

[bmoha2]

The didn't work out to well. Going to be a thing f the past as soon as the carbon fiber hood gets here. I already scuffed up the front clip at the autocross event today. I bunted a cone!
