Thanks man, Its a slow build but its getting there!

+1 to that.

What kind of paint did you use on the front end?

Its actually 2 in one Behr semi gloss house paint that I rolled on! Easy, looks decent and is durable. I like it! Thanks for the love!

I have no idea how the hell I missed this. I've been at USF meets myself! I stay reppin' Tampa. This truck is sick! I want your wheels pretty bad. I'm actually getting close to finishing the KA24DE swap in my truck so I'll pretty much have a hardbody (everyone thinks it is anyway.) Are you gonna hit the Mystery Meat in April? There's also a Tampa Racing meet mid February I'll try to attend.

[TheCrabMaster]

Yeah I was hoping to have my engine rebuilt by nurotag, but that's not gonna happen. I got up to 3 weeks for my tax return to come in, then im finishing my engine rebuild. Then four linking the rear end right after that. IM SO STOKED! What date is Mystery Meat? If its late April I'll make that my goal to be running for the truck haha!

[Isuzupickup]

I think it's the 14th. I was thinking about doing a four link rear end as well. You'd be running coilovers right?

[TheCrabMaster]

Yeah cuz i can't stand airbags and I'm gonna have to run stiff spring cuz I plan on having 2" ground clearance all around haha

[FunfGang]

Man I love every update of this.

[TheCrabMaster]

YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH! haha. Got plenty of updates to come man!

Credit card test! Gotta flares my fenders out a bit.

Also took my wheels off so I can take the tires off and refinish them. So painted my spare all crazy n stuff haha

So decided that I would start making my side diffusers today. Very straight forward design..

And the money shot

Now I have to make new sideskirts out of FRP to be cooler!
Plans are to wrap the hood and various other pieces in carbon fiber vinyl for some pizazz! But the next two big updates will be engine rebuild and rear end! STOKED!!!!!!
