Here are some pics of my car back from paint, a little overcast today so will get some better pics when the suns out.

Has come up really good. Now my turn to find the missing and restore and fit the rest.

Mate, that looks awesome, great mirror finish on the paint.

Looks like you'll be one of the first of us to finish your K.

Keep up the good work.

[khughes]

really impressive!

now you got to convince the guy to paint mine seriously!

[blk180]

Thats still the bonnet you sold the car to me with as well, was 3 days work but looks the goods now.

Im not sure how keen he is to do another one he spent 255 hours on this car, gives you and idea of what i spent too.

But now i see it finshed i know it was worth it to get it looking good.

looks real nice mate. please don't go 16s though... 15s max.

i can help you source wheels via yahoo japan if you would like.

edit - in fact i can help anyone source any parts if they need a hand, just let me know.

[KID-K]

Just a thought! if you put 15's MAX! and lower the car to where it would look the part, wouldn't it mean that the rear would be sitting on the bump stops and the front would have had almost half of the spring cut out of it, once the rear A-frames have passed their horizontal arch they have nearly no suspension resistance in them what so ever, not much of a racecar!

Mr 180, your car is looking awsome, the colors work very well......Keep up the good work, nice to see another K on the go, what do you have in mind as far as motor and brakes?

Nothing like a new paint grin

hmmmm this weekends progress.

These rubbers are more of pain to fit then one mite think took us many hours.

Start to refit the loom. have not found the rear loom yet but im sure its the somewhere

Cleaned up the lights took a couple of hours, then trail fitted the Grill

and just another random shot of the mirrors

also prepared the front and rear bumpers for polishing.

Dont seem like much but everythink takes time, hope to get the parts for the motor this week and get it back in maybe weekend after next.

Hoping to get the dynamating done during this week so i can start to refit the interior over the next week or so.

Looks awesome! Excited to see updates.

[blk180]

Some update pics been raining here alot so not a great deal has been done, im also looking to buy a new house so if that happens probably be no updates to after the new year.

Front bummer polished and fitted not really to my liking(quality wise) but will do for now

Rear bummer polished and rear light surround cleaned up and fitted

Dynamating started need to go buy another pack to finshs floor and do doors. Then all the interior can go in then.

I'm still trying to comprehend 255 hours. What a project! It looks sweet.
