SpoonR

The only thing I have in the engine bay is a Mugen strut bar. Nothing interior yet. I just started to fix my car this year. I was rolling my GSXR 1000 and didn't need to fix my car. Now my bike is boring and back to fixing cars.:dontknow: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c271/caeavesrsx-s/engine4.jpg

no doubt...just got mine back from a repaint. taking one back for a scratch, but the other three are mounted and ready to go. Im trying to figure out how I can leave my car for a week so I can have the bumpers and hood painted and the sides wet sanded and recleared. I already have a JDM rear bumper but it's championship white haha.

Lucky my house has couple of cars I can use. I'm not sure if I have to paint the just the bumper and sides or paint the whole car to get color match? What do you think?

It must be the blue car on gold wheels. Most STI have blue cars and gold wheels. I have been doing this look since 2000. Black on gold, blue on gold, white on gold.... I always had gold wheels..
