They painted the car with the bumpers still on?? MUCH better job if you remove those. Also, just curious - did you paint in the door jams as well of just leave the doors closed? From the looks of the photos, I'm assuming the doors stayed closed.

yea gonna do that for sure this time.. yea i painted all the door jams before the outside was painted..

Why do you keep repainting it?

lol theres a good reason for painting each time.. first time was cuz it was totaled.. the second time was cuz my dad reversed into me and decided just to do the whole thing.. third time just got tired of the whole body kit thing, kinda regret doin it.. was just a big waste of money.. so repainted it.. and this last time.. i blew my motor and the car was sittin outside for a while and some dogs fucked it all up..

Nice, I like it with out the body kit maybe you should just do a lip kit instead. You must have some hook ups at the body with all the paint jobs, or either you work there.

yea im gonna put a wings west lip kit on it as soon asap, also gonna get a oem cf hood, and try to get the cf hatch,

my family owns the body shop where im doin all this.. its just a small shop, i still got to pay regular prices for paint in stuff, but makes it alot cheaper when you do it all your self.. you know?

holy paint batman! that car went through a lot of painting! looks good though. i like the fabricated front bumper.

i see you're using an aftermarket OEM style bumper, how is the fitting on those? I know most are crappy, but how crappy?? - if so.

lol thanks i didnt want the three stripes to be off the body but on the bumper.. actually the company i got it from are usually crappy but it fits perfect.. and really strong...

holy mother of lowriding...did you airbag this thing or are you just dragging your ass on the lowest setup of some coilovers??

(how do you clear a darned speedbump??)

lol i loved slammed!!! but the coilovers i had on it where all shitty.. so i sold them and put my tanabe springs back on..

SPEEDBUMPS ARE THE ENEMY!

He repainted too many times.. I'm fuckin confused. :lol:

OEM hood with a custom molded scoop

lol...

hes right.. it came off a mustang gt that came in on a car where the hood was gone but the scoop was usable.. so i threw it on..

thanks for the complements guys... i caint wait to start driving it agian! should be done sometime this week.. ill post up some more progress pics...

I'm not gonna lie, I actually love where it's sitting right now. But why paint so many times?

thanks all these paint jobs are like a span of 5 years.. and when the car needed it.. hopefully this will be the last time.. lol ohh the color is sunbust orange from the 07 eclipse's,

I think they call it sunset pearl idk? Thats the color i want my 03 I think the orange color of the 4g's would look CRAZY on a 3g. (Damn you Lol!) When i get everything worked out with mine im thinking about letting hijacker's shop paint mine sunset pearl!

lol my bad.. that would be bad ass! it looks like they do beautiful work! the paint code is mo3 i believe, or m08.. lol it was a while back...
