Guest Drewz Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Good choice for color. To call that sharp isn't descriptive enough eh??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Juday Posted September 14, 2003 Author Share Posted September 14, 2003 Thanks guys, (everyone but DK. Whats with that "bacon" crack?) Believe it or not, as good as it looks in that pic it was still short one coat of paint. Heres a shot of the front corner. Can you spot the four different (now one) pieces of fiberglass?

Guest greimann Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 With paint like that, I think this thread should be moved to the electrical forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Dan, I bet that you're going to be very paranoid of hitting even the smallest thing with all the front end pieces joined (bumper, spoiler, buckets etc) WOW, getting the bodywork and paint done was definitely worth the wait!! It's beautiful!! I didn't notice any pigs flying, BTW Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Drewz Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 the bacon remark!!! hehehe The line is "when pigs fly" I believe.>>Since it took a long time they probably thought it would get done when pork goes airborn!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David K Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Sorry Dan, the paint is awesome! I was referring to what Tim said, "OMG!!! I just ran outside to see if there was aerial bacon available!!" Mmm, that went right over everyones head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wagz Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 It's about time we got a peek. I can't decide whats worse: Having to wait to see the finished product or seeing these little teaser pics and craving more! I cannot wait to see shots of every possible angle of your car. Man, it is going to be so sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruxGNZ Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Looks awsome! I love the electric blue colors, reminds me of the color I painted my old CRX. !M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted September 15, 2003 Author Share Posted September 15, 2003 Sorry David K. I know it's not in your nature to be rude. I sould have figured it was not ment to be mean. I'm just a little slow, forgive me. I was thinking: "Does my car look like a pig? Is a plate of bacon more desirable? Is David hungry?" Is it just me or do the rear fender flares have a lip on them. I know they dont come that way but thats what it looke like to me. You guys are sharp. That's right, they don't come that way. Remember, I'm mixing and matching parts. The SubtleZ front fenders have all the details of the stock fender only about 2" wider. The 280YZ kit was pulled from a race car. No lips, no rocker panel details, no crease line at the door handle level. John, the consumate professional, was happy to lay-up for me just the lips from the SubtleZ rears (for a very reasonable price) to graft into the YZ rear fenders. Other detail changes were made to blend the two kits together into a harmonious "look". As more shots come out see if you can spot them. 8) Thanks for all the kind remarks (even Bacon Boy ) but the artist here is Tony Mach of Mach Auto Body in Sacramento. I know my limitations and they include body and paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
