Ooooo. updates ftw. im liking all the new stuff

lol yeah thanks homie!!!

back in 04 before i put in my LS motor i flat blacked my engine bay cuz it was the mad cool thing to do in those days. and if i saw it starting to flake i'd just dupli-color dat hoe sum mo'! so yeah.... i probably had 3 years and 5 coats worth of flat black in my engine bay. NOT good.

So yeah... i got to work.

I aircraft stripped the ENTIRE bay and 240 gritted down to bare metal. the OE white was gone and errthang!!

Preciate ya pimpin'!

okay so yeah.... after like fuckin 3 weeks of waiting and settling for tires 2 sets of these joints came in.



and while i was working on my bay further my homebwah Khris started work on polishing the lips of the wheels.



this is one effective way to fuck up a brand new wheel. thats why i refused to do it myself

actually they're machined i believe. they look kinda diamond cut. here's a comparison between the OE finish and polished. you can barely see the difference but there the reflectiveness is substantially better. keep in mind that in this picture i havent even applied Mothers.

[Dirty Octopus]

oh yeaaaaaah i gots some shit!



then i did this shit...

[Dirty Octopus]

hmmm.... okay then... well... anywho...

most of my parts were aqcuired so we started to paint.









Just a heads up... this is going to probably get really confusing and pretty fucked up. Excuse my Swahili.
