Thanks..
My car has been apart for almost 4 months. Sitting there. The car has stayed in a garage, with its guts hangin out, waiting for all this to get done.
Quite honestly, its been a big hassle. <I have to share my wifes car> that sux man.
The rims are actually Excel s7's.

If your going to do put as much work into the engine as you have the body and interior of the car... I say get the superman logo painted on your hood.

And at the back hang a sack of balls with the below writen just above the sack.

"I realy have ball of steel" :laugh: :thumb:
Thats funny bro...
I am planning on doing up my engine next year. Im married, and that takes a lot of money. :(
Im trying to get the horsepower kickin tho. I didnt realize just how friggin expensive this is to do.
 
I said it before, not eveyrone agrees on your choice of color BUT you should be very proud of the craftsmanship. Whatever you like for your car, is your call so be proud of it.

The door is completely vinyled in red and blue.
The only part that was painted is the door vents, and the rubber stopper.
As for the dash, I did not have to take it out.
I would not recommend taking it out to vinyl.
Taking off the steering wheel is quite simple. Disconnect the battery, and pop the airbag off. There is a retaining bold that holds the hub on. Once you take that off, your all done. I cut the airbag wires off, and sold the airbag on ebay.
Good luck with your project bro.
 
so what you do for the dash. did you paint it? if so how did you mange to do the dash with out dripping or anything/ Whgat do you recomend?
 
I originally painted the dash.
it looked shitty man. I have now redone it with Red Vinyl.
MUCH MUCH better looking.

I recommend that you do the dash in vinyl. If you dont know how to do it, take it to an upholstery shop, and have them do it for you.
 
I give you a lot of credit man. you did the work yourself and you love your car and the looks. thats what counts. we need more people that appreciate work. although i may not agree with some things done to your car, i like the basic design of the interior. good luck with the rest of the build up.
 
looks good man, I can see you have worked your ass off. My question is, what kind of vinyl is that. What brand and stuff like that. I have done a lot of work with vinyl but havent found any that will stretch like i want it to and this stuff looks way stretched.
