Awesome find man! The mods involved with putting that kit on are pretty extreme.

An INSANE amount of money had to go into that ride, with just the labor accounted for.... pulling it down to just the frame in the front.... that's a lot of work.

The only thing is, Neil has to get a hookup on that labor. Every car that has come out of Delight Customs, has been featured in HCI magazine. He ownz that mag as well as the car. He's a nice guy to meet though.

Did you look at the link?.... It shows them painting it that blue color and what they did to do it all...

I agree the color choice is pretty "Off", but the work that went into it is absolutely respectable.

I haven't seen this post... saw another one with pics of the finished product, but I like the shots of the process.

Actually Zach is right Neil's car was posted somewhere else and it was a cover car for HCI magazine there was lots of pics of his car...

As far as DLight Customz THEY SUCK they do half a** work. The pics in the post that Zach os talking about showed it very well. there was gaps like all hell between the front bumper and the front fenders, the rear bumper and the taillights, the molding of the kit was just ugly.. I am sure they rushed it for the photo shoot but it represents them as half a** imo..

The only thing left to do is to get that automatic transmission out of there.

Just cause your not in a Magazine...

Actually my girlfriend just emailed them for a color change on her Tiburon, 2Tone BSP Top and Kandy Tangerine Base... they wanted $4500!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF is that $hit!
I went to the local body shop and they said $2300, what a rip. DLIGHT Customs also mentioned that they are "Featured in a lot of Magazines", I guess thats their sales pitch....

^^ ha ha..

I just think for the amount of money they charge they do crappy work. And your g/fs quote is f'ing rediculous. Neil's car looks like crap and I have seen others come from their shop looking equally like crap. Your g/f 2 tone color scheme sounds hott also. def post up pics when its done.
