Looks like a great start. Are you leaving the paint as is, or putting a gloss coat over it? Engine bay looks good, could use some tidying up and a few aesthetic touches.

+1 on not going the clone route. Looking good so far

 

[emerican]

Looks good
What the overall plans for it?

 

[UncleHonrod]

I like the flat black look.

Where's Logan?

 

[FML_EK]

Logan is in Ohio. My overall plans are to make it a clean driver..not tryin to race or make a show car. The paint is going to be white when I get money together

I knew that since you, like me, have Ohio plates.

 

[FML_EK]

Logan is right off 33 between Lancaster and Athens............the skunk2 combo rides really nice I have no complaints

 

[FML_EK]

are you planning on getting wheels eventually?

 

[FML_EK]

are you planning on getting wheels eventually?

Yes I do plan on getting wheels. I don't want to right now cause I havnt 100% decided on the color I want to paint the car. The gunmetal colored wheels are not on the car anymore I traded a set of hx wheels for a set of si wheels with better tires.lol. I am still not going the clone look I just keep falling into si parts. My car will never have a badge that says si lol.

 

[FML_EK]

traded these hx

for these si wheels a good trade imo.

[FML_EK]

[00siboy]

Seems like you got the better end of the deal. One of my favorite factory wheels.
