Well JT and I decided to get rid of the white hood. So went went to Lowes and got 2 cans of black plasti dip. I want to get it painted red but I am going to wait till I have money saved up to get 97-up front bumper and get the wing taken off.

It came out pretty good, I am happy with it. I think it looks much better than the white and just took some other pictures.

I have had good luck putting armor all or another type of protectorant on the plastidip to give it a nice sheen and let the water roll off easier. I notice that plastidip keeps water spots otherwise.
 
My motor is now down in Pittsburgh! waiting to get the ok to let me know that everything looks good so that we can get everything that it needs and get it done. slowly coming together, but i really hope to have it down for the shootout in August!!!

Well done. 9.1 with a 68HTA will be a peppy unit.

What does your boyfriend drive? my GF is purchasing an EVO6 herself. I really enjoy seeing gear head relationships.

I recently gave myself a weekend long project, I torn down the old headliner and visors and recovered them to match the dark interior in my car.

BEFORE

AFTER
Didn't come out to bad, the visors were such a pain to take apart and recover.

I recently got my 97 bumpers back from being painted to match the car and finally had the chance to get them on along with my new side skirts and a front lip!
