"the dog" grille filler

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

Inspiration for me to get off my butt and spray TEMS Diamond Black.
I'll be paying a lot of attention to areas I didn't do, the box sections ahead of the firewall,
the roof interior etc




Was it you who found the rear hatch struts mounts leaking water in the boot?, I think I have the same problem

2 notches, def crisper and leaner. No diff in power as I suspect it was rich anyway

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

wow...i'm sort of mad that i won't be in sea-tac area until 8-9 tmrw night, can't see new paint on a celica! ...i'm going there for something else, but i can't drop by for pstof cuz i have work before driving down...

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

paint looks aweome! i was actually very skeptical but very pleased to see it come out so good!
need to sit the front lip higher tho on the front bar and the tails need maybe a slight tint. other then that mate its looking hot!

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

I can attest to this since I've seen this car up close... IT's FANTASTIC !!! It was a hoot to get together again Jon !!! I see you got a pic of me with the Supra in my Pumpkin "Staff" shirt too !!!! :smilielol5

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

you mean the pumpkin shirts ......lol










jon....the celica looked great....honest.

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

have inspired the black hood look? =D

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

Looks so damn mad. I thought they looked good, but I didn't think they'd look this good. The paint suits the car perfectly. Matte black always suits the car's shape. Very nice. Although I can see where the original front bumper line openings are in the last 3 pictures, not a big problem at all though. Love the tinted corners. They aren't too dark. Perfect. Rears maybe could use the same treatment. Tint the windows, and some wheels to finish the look. I know your car is unfinished, but the car looks great.

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

jon, you're still getting the rear bumper right?

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

i see you robbed daves car... :thumbsup:

looks good!

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

I said that I'm not a big fan of black T16s, but yours looks awesome

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

Now get some 16" wheels! :naughty

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

look's very nice jon just see if you can get some sort of mesh to fit on that front bumper from behind
should make it look better the front spoiler I agree with rev-head's just little higher to level it up
other than that very nice job

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

Looks great! Nice pictures, love the paint job! Looking good guys haha, pumpkin shirts.

 

Re: jwagner's project: "the dog" paint prep'd

Looking great man! How's it going with the new spoiler? is there any noticeable difference driving?

I found with no front lip, the front end would react more to the air coming through, moved the car side to side. Its a bit smoother now but i'd like something like yours.

Are you going to put air ramps like stock in there? Very keen to see what you end up with

ps do you still have the front tow hooks?
