Don't forget about mine... I'm keeping the same color when I ever get mine repainted. Good choice bro.

[Fushi]

Great color choice !
I think it'll definately look good with your carbon fiber hood !

I can't wait to see it repainted.
Your car is great, mkymonkey

ok so big update! my car is getting painted tomorrow! well they're going to start on it tomorrow. lol like i said before im going to try to paint it the stock color of an 05 camry but...if they're out of that color. (for some reason the places i went to before the one i chose, told me they were out of that color) im going to paint it gunmetal but a bit darker. anyway. i went to the junk yard to get the molding that im missing off the side of my car in the right 1/4 panel. and guess what i find? A FUCKING SEI MAN...AN SEI!!! so i got me some cupholders. and hopefully tomorrow im going to go get the rear disks Cory (Acid X) is going junk yarding with me, and well im going to try to get them if they're not there. (damn that was a long sentence!)

Anyway, the paint guy i talked to, told me that if i stripped my car instead of him, he would drop the price like 600 bucks. apparently he's way too busy to take on another paint job for the week. He's by boss's buddy from 1983 when he painted his chevelle and in 1994 painted his mustang. so i guess the guy does good work for my boss to drop a couple thousand on him for two paint jobs.

ok so on with the pics. i think they dont need explanation but if you have a question...uh...just ask. oh before i forget....you'll see one where my fat ass in on my company forklift moving my car because i unfortunatly forgot the keys at home and could not move it. lol

[Cheeseburger]

[gfrg88]

sweet dude!! do you think itll be done by this week or no??

[Cheeseburger]

dose anyone know where i could get my rim fixed, the lip bent so I'm using my rim from my other car, i got a place where i can get it fixed for 100 bucks, thanks for the help in advance!

whoops i put this on the wrong thread lol but if u know please let me know =)

[mkymonkey]

bastard...trying to hijack my thread hmm? lol

anyway guess what i bought yesterday?

let me give you a hint



haha...i went junk yarding with this guy (picture shown below) and after 3 hours of hard manly labor lol we got my rear disks man! i had to treat the guy to something so i found this for him!(picture shown below the other one)





its a lip off of an 89 integra ls. the only prob is that it was kinda riced out and well it was painted white. lol so all cory has to do is remove the paint with some sand paper. it should be farely easy because the ricer that owned the car didnt even use automotive paint. it was you know regual wall/household white paint! lol anyway i also bought some things that were bothering me about my car. like a shift boot and a passenger sun visor, mine is all tore up

[Cheeseburger]

my mistake dude lol but those parts are wicked.

[mkymonkey]

hey cheese...how did you get that lil california flag under your location thing

anyway. my boss just called me. he went to check on my car and he says that the body work on it looks great. of course there is just some body ond sanding that they are doing but im going to take some pictures later today to show you guys. man im so excited. it would be awesome if they finished before the meet. then i could come and show you! but i dont want to get my hopes up

[Cheeseburger]

in your Edit Profile section at the very end u can choose a state. and take pics of the car while its getting primed ans ready for paint

[B16KILLA]

double post

[B16KILLA]

Sweet, that car is gonna look so badass! Did you end up getting those rims too?

[Acid X]

I don't think he did..

[SQ is the SQUAD]

hurry up and paint.


p.s. it shouls only take 45 mins to remove rear disc brakes, and yes, that is with hand tools

[SQ is the SQUAD]

also, i hope you go the ebrake cables with those rear disc brakes

[mkymonkey]

fuck...i didnt think we needed the cables. looks like im going to have to go back. but where do i disonnect them from? do i just pull the whole assembly?

oh and on the rims...yeah i got them..just waiting for the lean to go through so we can own the car. therefore it will be legal for me to get them! man i love my job. oh oh oh and i already took picks of the car in body work. ill post them up. according to the guy it will be primered and ready togo tomorrow

[HondaBoy]

[mkymonkey]

hahahahahahahahahahah. ive seen that datsun (the blue one) being driven by this mexican guy, he looks like he's in his mid 30's. but its funny as fuck cuz he actually bumps his music all fucking loud...it actually sounds pretty good, has a nice lil rumble to it when he pulls away from me but it just looks fucking stupid lol
