[Dalamar]

It's been cool to see the progress, and they've put a lot of time into it. my body guy does good work, and uses good materials.
Here's some more pix of the bodywork.

The body is all but done > > >
We've still got to decide on what to do for the custom stuff!

Check it out

THIS is where we're thinking of doing a stripe/graphic :angel:

8-bolt saleen spoiler with the ends filled undernieth, so it looks clean when the deck is up.

He just decided to fill that back plate thingie in. I think it will Look good. the third brake is a secret

Looks really good. I can't wait to see it finished though. It seems like it's taking forever and it's not even my own car. :noes:

 

[quickstang_1994]

what did they do to the sides? blend in the ground effects?

yea thats what it looks like, there is NO gap between the body and the ground effects

 

[Dalamar]

Red - everything seems like it takes forever, especially if it's custom.


Quickstang - ya they did blend it. bonded the sides, and had to rework the whole pieces. then filled out the bottom of the doors so thy line right up with the skirts.


Snakebit - NO gap FTMFW

Thanks Brian,
It's been interesting looking at different stripe/graphic locations.
I think we've picked a good combo to fit the car.

I have some sketches the body shop did, but I cant' get the damn things on here. first my scanner, then I'm scanning at work, now my FTP won't work, server's messed. AARGH.

sorry.

 

[ripper]

3rd brake light has my attention now lol.

 

[Dalamar]

I'm pretty stoked about that.
You guys will have to wait for the finished pix on that part >

I feel ya man, I was so excited when we loaded my car into the booth. I ALMOST painted it like the Super Stallion but decided to go with one color to keep it clean and simple. I want the way my car looks and sounds to tell you about it, not the crazy paint job.

 

[Dalamar]

That's cool man.

What color is yourse exactly?


I have a sweet 2 tone picked out, it would be awsome looking.
But, I'm wondering if I'd get sick of it, and I don't want my car to be really flashy...

So, I'm back to white with a little accent in blue/silver.

or maybe vice versa?

I would just stick to one color instead of making all kinds of crazy graphics. sometimes its better to just stick with the basics. Sleeper style FTW ;D :naughty:

somebody needs ghost flames/graphics
