I have been hanging out on SL a bit now and wanted to throw up some pics.



A hack attempt at Photo editing. The rest of the pics of my car are here --------> http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/Staypuft05/Misato/

I had some issues with the Drivers side seat it is being replaced ASAP.. and the bottom grill is a wip to be painted red just as the Upper grill. I am actively working on the system atm, I will post pics when done.

Yes i did name my car for a anime character but i thought it was fitting.

Any comments are welcome and apriceated.. just keep in mind I have made this car the way I like it.. I did not make it for you

"Misato" Niiiiiice! I dig that.

And that's a good attitude to have to. You're doing this for yourself.

i sooooooo wouldn't bother hookin up my car if no one was going to appreciate it. but, that's just me.

Well, even if it's not aesthetically pleasing to me (which this mos'def is!), I can appreciate the work and commitment that goes into a project like this.

Thanks for all the kind words

Yeah i got Misato from Eva, I have a friend sending me a red and black Nerv parking rearview hangger.

M-Flo

Lol~ I want that hanger XD

Post some pics of the nex seats if you can :D I'm interested in installing some bucket seats in my xA so some references would be great!

Did you custom make the brackets? how much did you get your seats for?

staypuft

There are about 20 pics(a few of the seats) in the link below the pic. The seats I got from a fellow scionlifer for 175 and a trip to LA. The bracket is a Sparco bracket that I picked up @ Auto Fashion for 250 w/ install

The seats sit lower and make the car more comfortable.You can use the left arm rest in the door perfectly, I really liked that.

I would not recomend Nex seats myself. I have issues with my seats.. The seat frame broke in 2 spots. I had my roommate weld it up and I will be putting it back in shortly.They are not the best Quality but you get what you pay for. I will admit I am no small guy. I have not contacted Nex about this thinking they would send me away with no receipt or anything from the purchase.. but I decided to look them up today and try my luck. I could not find there website.. I found alot of guys selling them but not Nex them self's. If anyone has a link or email addy that would be rad.


I am saving up for a set of Recaros but that's going to take some time.

Very sharp looking! I love the effect of the red rimmed wheels against the gray. This is tastefullly done. Congrats on the great job!
