Project Look Fast

[Martin0660]

LOL, Been gathering parts for Wifey's 'Vert. This is just going to be a clean some things up and paint it type thing. it's staying 2.3 & auto, will discuss a small turbo on it this winter ;) I have to say, it's a pretty fun car to cruise around with the top down :D

What we are starting with ...





As you can see, the car came to us with the GT nose and Tail panel in place (but no rockers). The car actually takes better pictures than it really is. The GT parts are likely rattle can paint, or something that's pretty shabby. The car itself is VERY solid, just a few scratches and little dings.

I looked at just adding the GT Rocker covers to this and in the end it's going to be a PITA, looked at putting the LX Nose and Tail back on, but she likes this look (Hence the "Look Fast" part of this ;)

So I picked up a set of Cervini's Saleen style rocker moldings. They fit with the LX moldings and seem to finish the look a little better when I hold them up there ...



And they passed the "Lab test" ... he really wants us to get a feline so he can complete his investigations with a cat scan ;)

[Martin0660]

Also picked up a flat trunk lid (no luggage rack) to go on there ...



And a simple spoiler with LED 3rd brake light that seems to fit the trunk pretty well ...



More of the "Look Fast" thing ... It's a 'vert so no vent visors but she is still looking to decide what tail lights she wants (cheese graters are gone) and Smoked LED's are leading right now

nice parts ,when they going on ?

[Martin0660]

One of the first mods' was to loose the White 4 lug Cobra R's that came with it in favor of the ponies (Could not stand it looking that fast ;) )...

Also notice it now has new lights with clear corners.

Sooner than later. The side skirts took a while to get and just showed up. Those are the last of what we needed as far as moving to paint ... just need to find a slot in someone's schedule now ;)

I think I saw you guys out cruising one evening by 84 Lumber in gbg. I was on the bike and gave you a wave. Looked clean!

[Martin0660]

I think smoked LX tails would look best on it! Dunno how I feel about LEDs on any cars older than 2005 or when LEDs really started coming on cars en masse.

Well if it was ultimately up to me, they would be SVO tail lights, but I have to give in a little ;) Not my style, but she likes the LED's and it will have a long LED third brake light with the new spoiler.

That was my reaction too ... When she said look at these, I was said, wow those arent as offensive as the rest of them We will see if they look good live in a little while.
