looks pretty crazy, shiny!!!
he should have at least taken off hte marker lights!!!

sparkly for sure

for some reason he wanted to leave the markers on lol, the car has like 3coats of clear and it was just watersanded and buffed. i cant even remember the colors name but when he was painting it it came out purple! lol and it has a lot of “ice” in it to =) cant wait till he paints my car.

single wiper FTW

Looks like a disco ball…

close up pic looks poopy.

Maybe a full shot would let the paint look better.

Why leave the marker in? That will look like shit when he pulls it off and you can see the old color underneath. I like the one wiper though, is that a kit or custom jobie?

i dont think hes gunna take the marker off anytime soon , but the only things custom on this car were the One-off Bomex Rear ends, C-west hood and teh paint scheme.

the sideskirts are regular 180sx Replicas.

im glad you guys liek the car , =) were both going to the next Son meet 4 sure

either way

its so simple.
it would have looked much better over all if they were the original marker color.

you guys do a lot of work on these cars , but you never put in the proper amount of time.
im sure if you guys took your time on a 240 it would end up pretty nice…

either way good stuff always trying new things :slight_smile:

Looks sick, my fishing boat is the same colour.

I like the red pix… not digging the sparkle stuff. I have alot of metallic in mine too much of it, people like it… i dont… likewise the sparkle stuff you have… not digging it but hey.

I really like how it looked as red though…

^- what he said :confused:

lol yeah the red looked much better since it looked a lot more OEM. This colour is more for a show car in my opinion. =\ But to each his own.

ohh and finaly shots of the complete car.

Pics are HUGE just so you can see the quality of the paint, oo and yea the car is mainly focused as a show car right now, i think maybe in the winter hes going to do a transplant of some sort.

reminds me of a Powder I have which is called Blue Stardust…

Not my cup of tea at all, but it looks like you put alot of work into it to get it to look like that … for some reason which I am unable to figure out.

I like the side skirts though.

looks like a bass boat lol

but i do like the 180 skirts those are verrryy nice.

blue stardust that looks sick you do powdercoating right?

i might want some stuff done

hey i never thought of it as looking liek a bass boat lmao
