    You should def paint the hood that factory green, it would look so cleann....imo
    never thought this car would be called beautiful but thanks a lot its good to hear that. for now the rust will stay, i just feel like if the hood was green and only the trunk is rusty it would be kind of random. when i decide to tackle the paint stage of this car maybe ill go a cleaner route though ya never know!

    totally agree, im looking for a lip but they dont make any for this bumper style, so maybe one for a bugeye wrx or 2.5rs.

    This is, after all, the DGAF build.
    its raw so it matches the trunk which had to be raw since i welded the spoiler to it, and because it was white and i dont want to paint match the hood if im going to be respraying the whole car later on

    so spent some time taking car of some rubbing issues lately, bleed my brakes, dialed in camber and height, put my front end on, rawed my hood and painted my grill

    also my pictures suck, i need a real camera and some editing software or maybe a computer too.


    had to notch a thin piece of metal than hung down from my frame.


    good use of old d-sports


    day in the life of...

    cleaned my engine bay up and waxed it



    face down ass up

    before

    after, poored acid on it then water

    Otherwise, the fitment looks great.
    I didn't rust it on purpose my trip to Colorado did and it will get all aged equally and cleared coated. It's better looking in person and actually flows with the body curve of the 1/4 panel.
    Thanks tho!

    well i wasnt anticipating it to rust so quickly on my trip to colorado, but my plans are to take that rust back off, then sand the rest of the paint off the trunk and then let them rust or age at the same time then put some fat coats of clear on it, same with the hood. thanks btw
