spotted you as well ... the only person I know that I could trust to lay the paint lives in carthage (outside Knightown) (I'm from New Castle originally had to drive it from Lafayette) I was on my way to drop it off ... don't know if you saw but all that was in the car was the two seats and carpet. It does look like some little roller blade wheels right now but the 20's will fill everything up. It was like christmas before I left ... recieved my DF210 (new=White) CAI and some billet accessories ... pic I'll get up soon for all of you watching sorry it's been awhile I've been stuck in the garrage tring to finish everything up. As far as color ... I posted up a photoshop of an Idea we had keeping the RS2 blue color up top but we are adding some trible and about 20 diff. ideas. It's kinda like getting a tattoo ... you tell them what you would like and just let him run with all the ideas ... then when it's done you look in the mirror. All I know is it will be worth it and come ITB I should bell all back together again. <- pushing the schudule but I'm ready.

 

Tring to finish up but the weather is killing us (humidity sucks). It's been alot of work making the door caps for the rear flairs. Ended up cutting out the fog light housing and fiberglassing in the stock ones that way we could keep functionality. O-Well here is a few of what we have so far.

It was late I was tired ... I need to shave!!!

Felt like christmas in July ... recieved 3 packages in one day ... and all from differnt shippers (UPS, FedEx, and USPS)

The billet engiene accessories

Door panels are preaty much ready

Tried on wheels finally just befor we shoot the color on


Now that it's ready to spray I finally got out of the garage, shaved, and had some fun

 

wow its lookin gooood

cant wait to see it finished lol

 

Man Its looking good! I think it needs a little more sanding on the fender flairs though. I'm definitely watching this thread.

 

Sad to say the weather held up the job and I wont be able to attend ITB and Scion VIP. <- Might be good news for you though. O-Well there will be more shows ... probably just not as important to me as these two were supposed to be. Basically means I'll have to go out of state to be at any kind of big event this year. N-E-Ways like I said I got a few sneek peek shots of the work in progress. thought about keeping it a secret but since I wont be competion this weekend ... here ya'll go.

Still have to wet sand everything and do the dash, sub box, door panles, ect.

Rear Hatch - alot of sunlight shining through but you can kinda make it out


Drivers Side Rear Door. Some of the big tribal is on here but not too much will be able to make it out once the doors are back on the car.


Passenger Rear Door Jam "Detail"


Drivers Side Fender & door jam "Detail" < I have to remind my wife about that one she keeps wondering when she is going to get her car back.


Hopefully just a few more days right now we have to ride arround with no! air and we are missing the Xa badly and maby we will make the next show.

 

wow dude, thats good

 

looking good man, love the detail in the door jams.

 

Got it out in the sun today while working on dash and doors. still have to take off the hatch and finish it but although blury you can almost make out the blue pearl. I'll get better shots once I get it back but it will still be better in person.

 

addictiverides, your xA is looking really really good.

I can't wait to see when its all done.

 

Ok ... Ok ... still have small stuff to do to finish up but here ya'll go for now tring to see what ya'll think.

photoshop for painter to work off of


What it came out like


After DF210's

 

I have never been a fan of that body kit, but what you have done makes it look good. Props to you on it!!

 

ya, I wanted the protos or garage tiera kit but it's the wifes and she said she wanted different, affordable, and pink! ... Well I told her she cant have it all. She didn't like it when I said blue and white .... intill she saw it. I had to work my reasoning that if she wanted that then she should have bought a plain xA and not a (RS2)!

 

tring to finish up but probably photoshoot over the weekend.

 

looking good...the only complaint i have is about the wheels.

you either need some serious spacers, or you need wider wheels

 

looks great! :D

 

looks nice :DD

good job

can you drive it that low?
cuz ours wont go that low.. hahah
:D

 

I started to explain all the work done to roll the 20's like that but to keep the post short I did the minitrucker thing and cut that s***!

 

did you fiberglass the whole hatch area?

 

preaty much ... tring to do a few panels at a time. the ones around the subs were supposed to be white though.

 

looks nice
