Another Update with Pictures

I went out today and took some pictures of the car. About a week ago I got pretty much everything finished up. The front end is all painted and cleared, AC is connect and working, and i got my momo pedal kit that i got for christmas on. Put on the camber plates from my clip, and had to extend the battery bracket due to the s15 lights. Only thing left is the black trim line at the bottom of the fender, i need to mask that stuff off and spray it black. Anyway, Check it out. Let me know what you think.














I ended up using the SR compressor, and combined the line from the SR with the KA. The problem with doing this is the difference in sizing.

Last one.

I'll be ordering a front lip here within a week, I would like to match that up with some sides and a rear valence. But, if i do that with the stock wheels its going to look even weirder then it does now. So, Wheels are on the list with all that stuff as far as exterior goes. A FMIC may come before those though.

Oh yeah, also definately thinking about buying a hole-less hatch and throwing that on to get rid of the spoiler. I took it off for a few days and liked it a lot more.

Also, it's rolling on springs and AGX's right now. I think i'm going to roll those for as long as i can. I still have yet to do enough research on how much that will effect the wheel sizes i can tolerate.

Paint that metal you can see through the bumper...should be flat black, it should disappear.

nice...I can see where the paint stops at the fender and the rest of the car. I thought you would painted the lower portion of the car...where its flat black (or gray). I wouldn't mind giving you my trunklid...but your not local and you probably wouldn't like the fact that its not red.

so you have working A/C?

As i mentioned in the first post, I have yet to spray the trim line at the bottom black to match the rest.

And the AC works great, blows cold ~40 degrees or so...

The fenders are SWAAT... I got them through SpeedAlliance.

The pedals are momo superturismo's.

Here's a picture without the spoiler, im liking it more, but if i get rid of it i have to either fill the holes or get a new trunk lid. Does the K style wing bolt to factory holes?



Right now the wheel choice are these...

Very, very, nice. I think that's the best looking Strawberry Face convo I've ever seen. It really does look so much better on an S14.
