YAY pictures!
ok so thanks to veterans day I got a chance to give the ef some time. So I hit autozone and got some primer, flat black paint, sand paper and masking tape. All I had time to do was the drivers door and there wasn't much sun today so it took a while to dry. All in all I think it looks good. let me know what you think. YES RATTLE CAN! sorry I cannot afford a 2k paint job, I like it. Also i know that the door jams and such will still be red, but thats ok with me

Also at the bottom me and a friend put the d16 back in for just a couple days for fun. ENJOY!

looking good so far; the spray paint looks pretty decent. Are you going to at least paint the engine bay? And if you're rattlecanning, the door jambs shouldn't be too hard to paint.

ya, I'm not too worried with the feel of the car I just want it flat black, it prettty much feels as ruff as sand. Engine bay will get painted probably this weekend, door jams might be done in a couple weeks, today im going to do the d quarter panel and respray the hood.

as for a seat, no who needs that? ya once i put the ls back in im going to use my stock seats unless I can trade for some in the mean time. ya I was over excited to paint so i did a terrible masking job. Just finished clear coating the fender and door, and repainted the hood. Looks ok imo, I'm really not too worried about how it looks so efforts in telling me it looks ****ty will make me laugh.
plans for interior..... na probably no carpet, one seat and i guess a dashboard. I really want this car to be SUPER LIGHT weight. hopefully that will help me beat my friends 300 whp nissan 300zx tt
