    Primered and shaved! Can you handle it?

    I shaved all emblems, antenae, roof rack, rear washer sprayer, rear wiper, front sprayers, and aftermarket side marker turn signals. Also switched front bumper to 88/89 coupe style. Total of about 60+ dents from working at Albertsons. Damn shopping carts! Also a good way to spend $1,200 for Brand New Motegi 15 inch wheels. I still have a little sanding to do. I want it perfect. Also rolled over 292,000 miles last week.

    oh no's!!!!! I loved the burghundy!! I can't tell, but are those traclights (spoon knockoff's lol)? We just started selling those at schwabs a few months ago. Uber light, I htink the 15"s only weigh like 9 lbs! You should go with a green, maybe a deep forest with some sort of flake. Oh well, I leave it up to you.
    *edit* that sounds good too. I love a good two tone handa

    Re: Primered and shaved! Can you handle it?

    not much. Been workin on my s13. Just got my ca18det and bought bobafetts 3" exhaust, you should check out my thread in the OT section (my car is dirty right now tough, lol). I like the two tone idea. Something clicks with the red accords and the stock black bumpers, though I like it more on the 4g's, I'm sure it'll look sick on your 3g .

    ps: yes, I've worked at schwabs since I was sixteen (about 3 years now). HAHA! I get my wheels for wholesale +10% bitches!!!

    hahahaha I worked there too for over a year so I got everything for cost +10% too. Working for Les is good, just not member dealers. Fun place to work though.

    I like that sedan front bumper on the hatch. You can go to the clear bumper lights also. Looks like you lowered the car also.

    It might not look pretty now, but think of what he's doing. A stronger, deeper version of what it was before, with a nice contrast of black two tone. Should look good. I'm interested.

    It's NOT shaved.

    To be shaved the spaces where the molding used to be need to be filled.

    Peace.

    Depends on your thought of Shaved. I didn't say the whole car was shaved.
