Hi Guys, Check out what I've been keeping in the garage during the winter time. Was fixing the body and took me and a buddy pretty much the whole summer season fixing the body last year but I didn't want to drive it during winter. But I'll be ridin' wit it soon. I'll see you all at the meets. It's the first time I'm joining proabably by June. Let me know what you guys think, let me know what else I can add to this project. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/597537

I personally thinks its another horrendous F&F creation but to each his own. I hope you have some BIG wheels to fill out those massive fenders and at least a turbo underneath the hood to move it.
Are those 91-93 accord headlights?

It's just too overdone for my tastes. If you're looking for something else to do to it, I'd recommend filling out the wheel wells like people have said, and fill the space between the bumper and the hood.

I just looked at the pics again, and while the car still doesn't do it for me, I just love that blue you used. Beautiful colour.

Never done any headlight conversions before this. I just wanted projectors but unfortunately no shops sell anything for 1g talon's/eclipses. So I had to go to great lengths. So far I only have enough to afford 17's with tire but I really want 18's and yeah....to fill those huge wells of mine. Well what went into it. I mean how did you get them to fit in? Never done nor even researched this. Dont get how they fit? You have to cut anything out to make them fit, change something around? Just curious!@

I like everything until that back bumper, that is from the drifter kit right?
I would have chose a different back bumper something that fits tighter to the body, and I would have gone with a fiberglass wing if not oem wing something like a low profile subaru style wing.
But that is a fantastic job I really like that blue and the headlights look mint (is that a honda body kit front bumper as well?) I like that hood to ( I would make a functional depressed air scoop on mine). The roof scoop even though does nothing still looks good IMO.
Would love to see it with some new rims.

I forgot I have a 93 Mitsu Mirage LS Coupe 1.5L SOHC(summit/colt)mint, just replaced the Std tranny, cluch, T-belt, air box removal, bearings, alterna, ect, been trying to sell it for $2800, but I still want to put a turbo on it if its still around at the end of summer, and I was wondering if you had some colt turbo suggestions.
thanks
