Topic #39738 248 posts Started by celiracer
I'll be going up to the shop Wednesday and hopefully have some pics of everything on and the car primered.
Thanks man. I just can't wait to get my car back.
Well was supposed to get my car back tomorrow. But went out there today and they are not quite done yet. I have a couple pics of the passenger side, skirt, Its completely molded to the car and that whole side is primed and ready for paint. All he has to finish is the rear lip, and shave the holes and finish with the wing. My camera is messed up so hopefully tomorrow i'll get them two pics up.

My body man is slow and I wanna kick him in the face. The mr2 has been with him for 3 weeks. Im having withdrawals. I need my baby back. The trailblazer just doesnt take turns and do burnouts quite as well as the mr2.
when are we going to see some paint on those molded skirts? it does look great but very slow!!
sweet n sexy!!!!!....im thinkin of moldin it too!!1... biggrin.gif

in case of a flat what u do tho?.....what kinda jack u use?...
Sorry guys. He isn't working on my car everyday thats why its not done yet. His main business is semi's He does custom work and alot of fyberglass work on semi's thats his main business. So when truckers go in to him thats his main priority. But its supposed to be done by this weekend. And its only one guy working on my car.

Jack the front or the back. I never jack from the sides.

And now i noticed that molding sideskirts is a lot of work.

Went to the bodyshop today and it isn't done yet. I know he's going slow but atleast i'm getting it done right. This guys pretty much the only person in My area that will work with fyberglass and do such a good job for so cheap. But i'll get it back soon.
its always better to take your time and get it done right the first time than have a half ass job done. from the pics it looks like your body man is great at what he does. i still cant wait till its done.
Molded looks really good up close!

Thanks guys. He's got all the holes in the hatch shaved, and started sanding down my cf hood for paint, told me that by friday the hole car should be primered and ready for paint. So hopefully this weekend.
Ya i went there friday and my drivers side is finally primed like the passenger side. He has the cf hood all sanded ready for primer, all my holes shaved, and all my dents fixed. All he needs to do is mold the blocks to the wing, and do my rear lip. He didn't know how he was going to do the rear lip, because he didn't want to just bolt it on, So he's using some kind of reson to stick it to the stock bumper and bolt it on. So it's on there good. (he likes everything that he works on to come out perfect) I know its taking forever and im impatient but i think its better im waiting and getting it done right the first time. Stay tuned folks, I think it should be this week.
im excited to see it!

i really wanna see how teh cf hood turns out

^^x2.

If it comes out sweet (and i'm sure that it will) then its time to start saving up for the CF hood! biggrin.gif

That looks good. But mines a little different then that one. I have my horizontal bar taken off. And i have the middle bar in front of your intercooler taken off and one on each side of the opening.
I know, I know, its another side shot.
But this was taken last week, And it kinda
shows how low my cars going to sit, when its
on the ground. I'm going there today to hope that
the car is now primed, and that everything is ready
for paint. But we'll see.
