that looks fantastic compared to what it was...good job!

Kick ass... the intercooler hiding there is very subtle too.

 

[ScrapinSi]

VERY Impressive... I thought for sure this was gonna be a "never complete" project...

 

[cheese9988]

Wow, impressive!! How did that dented quarter panel come out after it was painted, its hard to see in the pics?

I will get closer pics i still need to go over the area with finer sand paper, i shaped it with 40 grit and then went over everything in plastic with 80, with a good sanding with 180 it should be perfect i will get closer pics.

uhm... that chop is kinda wierd

yeah, my friend did that, so it is his fault, i destroy him later(like you do to puppies). he matched the color of the primer to around the windsheild it would be better if it had the correct texture.

I think everyone would agree that a minor lip on that bumper is the only thing missing.

 

[jimboburgess]

yeah it would clean up the edge a little, there are some scrape and such on it

 

[formby]

how many hours have you spent on it...great job...i cant believe that is the same car.....wow

 

[jimboburgess]

about 140 hours or so
twice a week from 10-11am til 5 for ten weeks, i have only one class on tuesdays and thursdays, right in the morning so i had the rest of the day to work on it.

 

[Battle Pope]

140 hrs eh.

With bodyshop average at 45 bucks an hour, this car would have cost 6300 bucks to fix.

I'm impressed.

 

[EGProject]

I think most body-shops would have looked at the car and laughed. Or ran away.

Damn dude, body work skillz are where its at. You going to school for it?

 

[92dxhatch]
