I actually don't mind the fog's too much. The entire car looks pretty good, but too aggressive for me. I would have gone with a more stock look for the front and rear. The rear bumper looks a little off, its too round...
I'm not so crazy about the splitters on the rear either.

The side profile looks really good, and the hood looks great also. I think I like it more then the CF/Fiberglass hood thats out. The front bumper from the side matches up just about perfect and the side skirts look good too.

Nice job over all!! :thumb:

I dont like the kit. Its too much. Maybe in my eyes its just incomplete.. maybe its the front bumper supports exposed, maybe its small brakes, maybe its the overall goofyness of it, the huge empty spaces. idk.

But ill tell you what.. Those wheels are the best thing smokin. They look real good black.

Here it is guys i know im probably gonna get ripped royally but you guys need to know i built this car for me and not anyone else so say what you want but i love my car and so does every other person where i live i have never gotten more compliments in any other car before i built this one.The mods are on page 2 thanks.

Ya know when you first introduced your project a lot of guys dogged you some. I suppose they are an opinionated bunch, and I suppose you fit right in. I bet you freaking love that SHO... wait! that car is so intense it transcends the SHO, I bet you love your Black Hammer. And I understand your not completely finished with the lighting but dude you deserve all the props of SHOYA for your labor and passion. I would love to see more images of your car inside, stereo, the process, everything. If you have a lot of images consider hosting them on some free site like photobucket or whatever. These guy will help you.

I believe you have made believers of doubters and I applaud your work. To think your doing all this shit to your car while in the hinterland of Alaska is even cooler.

I hope to **** you make it down to 07 in the Zoo, I cant wait to see this monster in person.!!!!!!!:thumb:

I'll even be the first to extend an invitation to my brother from the north. If you do come down for the convention or any other event your welcome to my garage, home, or whatever you might need while visiting us.

Well I have parts I like and parts I don't like, but I do like how you went out on a limb and did your own thing. I'm pretty jealous of that hood and I really like the side skirts. From those mods I wish I could see it in person I bet that's one sick car. Well props :beer: :beer: I also would like to see more pics of the interior and of the engine.

Is the white one the one you introduced us to first? Looks familiar.

Good luck with the turbo, I'm watching all the current build ups trying to figure out how to do it on one of mine.

How much of the work is yours? What do you do up there? What's the interior on that beast look like?

Damn! I gotta go download your pics so I can look at them offline.

You get :thumb: from me shosovernow. I mean I'd never do that to one of my cars, just too much time and $ for me to invest while Son's education and home renovations loom menacing. But for those who want to go there I stand in awe of the yield.

this is a pretty old thread, but i like the car, personally i think a police grill would make a huge improvement, why dont you just take the covers off for your "highspeed" runs?

Thats one sexy Gen1. The only thing I don't like are the sun visors above the windows. Other than that, the thing is H-O-T!
