what do you plan on doing with the blue car? There's a small part i could use off it. (front mounting bracket for the center console).

congrats on the super fast eco swap. I suggest painting the car black and leaving two white stripes running down the hood, roof, and trunk. make it a true skunk.

i would have left it as stock as could be on the outside. i would sell the 04 front end stuff and buy more performance stuff. i caught you said 500hp something, not to put a damper on your goals, but i dont think it will happen. not to start crap, but maybe prove me wrong.


Jake, we are going to have to put that Team GREEN sig back in there now......


i agree, the 00-02 body, stock base line, hell, gray bumper FTW.. with a nice build, would be NICE.

sleeper FTW.

Still have the 00-02 head lights\side markers?

One of the parts that I decided didn't need to be in the car when the adjuster came to look at it. It's yours man. Just gotta find it amongst the debris.

Yes I do and I will take trade for urethane control arm bushings if you got a spare set sitting around.

That bumper is killing the car.


Now if I did that, then what would you give me @!#$ for. Another thing...I'm not really into the whole "stock is hot" thing, not for my car anyway.


Continue on.

Come on now Joe, The rk lip is super hot. I was gonna put something else on it, but when I saw anthony's last weekend and again this weekend, I love the way it looks. That and the TRD was completely destroyed in the wreck.

On w/ the updates...





And this just ain't right...

I was thinking flat black for the whole lip kit. Like previously stated, I love the look of Anthony's car, including the flat black lip. We shall see what I think when I have it and test fit it w/o paint. If I dig then it's getting the flat treatment, if not then it goes to paint. Time will dictate what happens.

Just an FYI for you... RKSport blows my @!#$ ass. My lip (now Anthony's) got @!#$ up in paint, they painted it and when they baked it the paint up.... twice, the body shop was saying something along the lines of RKSport letting the release agent soak into lip. They had to strip it all off and bake the bare lip to sweat the @!#$ out of the plastic, then clean it, paint it, and bake it before it turned out how it did . Another thing was the color, since it was urethane they couldn't do a true flat black, the flex additive for urethane gives it flat paint a kind of semi gloss finish, not a true flat (like mine/anthony's).

If you want I'll give you the name of the shop that did mine, they were gonna charge me $150 but since they were problems and they missed their deadline they charged me $100.



Re: Project Phoenix
Sunday, July 13, 2008 5:24 AM
You said you had problems w/ the paint on ur lip, but my skirts and rear were fine the body shop that did mine didn't have anyproblems at all w/ it. Thanks for the heads up and I'll probably get ahold of you for that shop for mine when I get it. I'm just gonna rattle bomb the sides and rear to see how it looks, if it's good then it'll go to the body shop and all 4 pieces will be flat black, if I think they should be white then they will get painted white. We shall see. Thanks for the heads up.

i wouldnt. spray paint never really dries and the body shop is gonna be pissed when they have to strip off spray paint to get down to the right material to paint it. id recommend either deicing on a color and waiting and doing it once than rushing and doing it twice and having to pay more.

pissed off?? it would take all of 2 minutes with a can of carb spray and a rag.

Lack of options would be more accurate. But if you wanna take credit that's fine.
