    thanks pico! your car is one of the main influences that made me go with the white car on black with polished lip rims theme...

    yours, loud&proud, and i dont know the other dude, but all 3 are very nice!

    white sedans ftw (although im pioneer in the painted mouldings on a white sedan) lol





    and if it bugs any of you that i posted your ride i can take it down.

    Nice car!! I really like those mouldings. After seeing the results you got with yours it really makes me want to paint mine; then I realize that my car is black . What paint did you use, Duplicolor?

    Re: chickensandwich's update thread

    duplicolor? that might be some type of paint thats only available in the states..
    ive never heard or seen that brand myself, i chose to go with "marine enamel paint gloss white" its available at any hardware store like home depot, canadian tire, rona, etc...
    up here in canada, the biggest/known brand of paint is tremclad and thats the brand i decided to go with...

    evidently, it turned out alright, not perfect though.

    Looks like the Picopop look is catching on!

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    Looks nice. The painted moldings makes the car look more modern. The reason your night pics turned out blurry is because you need to use a tripod, or something to sit the camera on. Your hand is too shaky. I always use my tripod now.

    Re: chickensandwich's update thread

    ^^ on one hand yes, on the other no, it handles better definately. i can take turns much faster now,so handling is dope considering i can take tight turns at more than the posted speed limit now.

    but on the other hand, you know how it is, when you roll low pros and the road is shit, the ride is shit, because every dip in the road you hit makes the ride feel like an earthquake yo

    and braking is much worse now too, so is acceleration, but these are show rims not go fast rims... well that is unless i turbo or engine swap that is....

    yeah when i first got my car i bought 17 inch rims for it...but then ended up trading them for fat fives with tires. i got some big tires on mine...and im lowered.....i was hanging out with a girl last night....and she said she said it was not bumpy....springs and shocks help out alot. and yeah shitty roads suck...i would lower it a tad tho....and get impressive handling. my next mod are swaybars
