[Road Pirate]

what spoiler was that that you had on it???& do you remember were you got it???i like it & my trunk is lookin lonely lol

Thats a VI-RS wing from an EK4 I believe..it was on limited versions of the VI-RS's in japan
Its a bit taller than the OEM SI wing, and no LED. But oem

And awesome dude!!! glad you got the wing. Sorry for the "very interesting" packaging, as the guy said at the postal store...haha. Probably sell my old one when I get that new lip. Why? you interested?

 

[singlecamEJ8]

[Road Pirate]

Thanks a lot Johnny! Itll be done here VERY soon I assure you

 

[Silver Bullet]

[Road Pirate]

bwahaha
Sorry, I just taped the box like a madman!!! haha
but i got ripped off on this lip, I ordered an OEM si lip, cost me 110$...and i got this lip...I was pretty chapped.

 

[Road Pirate]

Updates! My computer is broken so I'll rarely be on...but heres some of the s**t I've been up too.
Gutted the car, ready for paint

The bay at the moment

Got my rods in 8)

Painted most my bay..will finish it today

And random ones

 

[chadi]

i think that lip kills it...get a real type r/ Si lip...

 

[Road Pirate]

^
I ordered an oem si lip, and thats what came in the mail...i got jipped. But its better than no lip. Besides the shits blown up, im focusing on the engine.

And as said before, I'm going with a chargespeed lip. Thanks though!

 

[Road Pirate]

The bay...basically finished

Interior:

 

[ImportFan1]

not bad. why did you decide to paint the interior black?

 

[Road Pirate]

Thanks. The cars interior is going to be completely stripped as far as the rear goes, and I dont want that nasty silver/primer crap..just looked ugly. I saw some guy paint his interior gloss black, with a kevlar fuel pump cover and just looked hot. So thats what I'm doing, but also going to slap a weapon r X brace back there to stiffen s**t up

 

[Destroy]

Not bad, needs paint, a different lip, ditch the decals and the turbo badge... and those don't look like enkeis to me. Looking a lot better though.

 

[Road Pirate]

^
haha thanks dude.
The lip sucks, decals are gone, turbo badge stays, and they arent enkei's

Itll get some better exterior goodies later on, but as of now, I just want to build a kickass single setup. So thats the money pit. Then I'll focus on getting the body and interior in better shape with no knockoff goodies

 

[Road Pirate]

Cleaned up, ready for the motor to go in

My garage...yeah..its a mess...

 

[xxsenceo89x]
