[NIALL JZX]

right i may start a project thread i suppose as everyone is doin it........

it had few bits when i bought it like the kit , intercooler an other bits an bobs....

first was to get it regestired , so that was all grand an got me plates...
i said from day one that id do a full respray on it when funds allowed.
heres some pics of when i first got it.
















said id get the front windows tinted on it then, and there was a tint on the front windscreen that was all marked an a savage glare off it so that had to go..





next was to remove all the stickers...








it then went for nct, jus raised back up the coilovers, was jus after gettin a service so didnt have much to do to it..
standard cat was in it still so it was handy for emmisions.

anyway it flew through was delighted first ever car to pass in one go..
althogh he knocked me on the clutch pedal rubber where ya put your foot on was hangin off , and the visor was to big

after a bit of shit talk from me to him he let me off with it an got a 2 year test

done a deal with my work emotion cr kai for a set of work vs-kf 18x9 an 18x10 in super chrome finish... sweet

they stuck out a mile on the rear which i knew they wud , so it was all the more reason to make a start on the bodywork an flare the rear arches an do a full respray...

[tweek]

Car looks well niall fair play to you
Your missus car is back in action i should have it out in portlaoise this weekend

[NIALL JZX]

my cousin is a panel beater an does top work...
always brought my cars to him an does a savage job

he's dear but ya get wat ya pay for

his body shop is only a few miles away from me so was ideal to be able to keep an eye on stuff jus ta make sure i was happy wit everything...

brought it in and started to strip it down which we had done in no time..

arch work on the rear was the most work really........

pics





















the car took up the 2 spray booths
there was the car itself , front bumper , back bumper two side skirts and 4 doors and boot and bonnet lol....


front indicator lights were a bastard for poppin out so had the wings all scratched so needed a good rub down.

was only 1 or 2 small dents is all on the body so was grand , overall body was mint on this car really.

holes were welded shut in bootlid and smoothed off also.

acrhes were trial an error really , but was happy out the way they turned out.. there full metal no fibreglass or anything so will never have a problem there.. all sealed underneath also , so rust will never be a problem.

pics of respray next

[Fredericks Balls]

Awesome. When I first saw the respray pics i did wonder was the old colour/look nicer but no way. Original colour was nice but not the same at all!! The only thing I dont love is the tinted rear lights but otherwise it looks fantastic. Arches are animal!!

And the wheels look well wider than 10j's!

And Stevie Wonder, keep the stickers? You mad??!!

[NIALL JZX]

ordered sum smoked front indicator lights to finish off the out side..

so sum pics after it left the spray booth
