    Jumped on the painting bandwagon

    It looks good so far. I don't think I would do the whole thing flat. It's kind of cool (I have one car like that) but it gets old after a bit I think. If I were you I would try the hood and headlights flat and do the rest gloss, then if you don't like it gloss them later. Just my opinion.

    wheres all the guys from the begining

    Damn I didn't know that's what happened to Mike U.... I always stop close to the center/yellow line for just that reason, of course that's still no guarantee but I feel it improves my chances.

    Gas filler relocation

    I'll get them ASAP but my car just took a dive on me, need to concentrate on the motor now :( I hope to have it working this week and maybe some pics of the trunk this weekend. But the original panels won't fit and look pretty. I just cut a space in the hatch panel and the one that goes...

    Another ?? about wheels! Great Deal!!

    I would buy those in a heartbeat and keep them. The offset I think would be perfect. Yeah I realize there aren't ideal for power but I like the way 19's look personally. If I ever end up at the track then I would go 17's but until I get there I want to look good :P

    3D Supra

    download some program with a serial. I like 3ds Max it has one of the best user interfaces I think. But it lacks in other areas. All the programs seems to have their perks and downfalls. There is 3ds Max, Maya, Lightwave, XSI, Z-brush, Rhino, Wings, Cinema 4D, Solidworks and tons more. Then...

    Gas filler relocation

    LOL yeah I completely guessed on what size I needed and I was off by a LOT but they do just barely fit. :icon_razz Thanks for the props and the tips guys. I'll update this thread later on as I get the panels done and things painted. ***BTW anyone who wants to steal the idea feel free...

    Already made a thread but thought I should add the pics here as well. This is my gas filler neck relocation. It's part of my shaving everything project. Where it's going too.... How it's getting there.... The new pipe.... (the welds aren't pretty but they're air tight :icon_bigg )...

    Gas filler relocation

    The rubber piece that goes around what? Everything that is there on the car was just moved. I have a grommet for where it goes through the fender though. As for the panels, they are going to be replaced. I'm going to be remaking all the panels for a custom sub/amp/spare tire/whatever else...

    Gas filler relocation

    So yeah, this is purely a cosmetic thing. There are no real benefits other than maybe a couple pints of extra gas :icon_conf I'm doing it because I wanted to shave my gas door. There is still a channel for the water to run out the side and I put a drain line on the bottom of the plastic...

    For those with upgraded foglight bulbs...

    I seemed to have that problem too. I also have been hesitant to put in expensive bulbs for that reason but I'm sure they would be fine.
