This is the area to display the custom things that make our cars not just another one off the assembly line, but a one off original. Its what separates us from the guy in the lane next to us, the thing only a true enthusiast can appreciate because its so subtle, so clean, that you know it makes your car stand out in a pack. Leave the vinyl at the door, I wanna see custom paint, powder coating, polished, airbrushed, molded, massaged, hand made, LOVE that you put into your car.
home made ram air grill no cnc here, or even a milling machine. Drill, jigsaw, file and lots of sandpaper!
Well its nothing too fancy, but I custom painted my stock grille, B, and C pillars and had the stock Charger SRT8 wheels chromed.
Nice RIG! Have you ever looked into painting the chrome around the windows! I want to paint mine black. I finally found a place that would powder coat my exhaust tips. I want to get rid of all the exterior chrome on my ride then I'm going to work on the interior chrome.
I carved it out of the aluminum then poured in red tinted resin then sanded flush BTW, where did you get the shaker hood, that looks awesome!
thanks fly..... actually i just finished the motor area like that pic just before the shin-dig....... really like how things turned out after the addition of the firewall and rad cover.....
Here are some unique things I've done to personalize my car. Yeah, the car has a big a$$ wing, but see the color matched Orange Blast fog lights... I custom painted the brake lights, also note the Custom painted Caliber SRT4 badge... Another subtle change...note the color matched OB 3rd brake light... brakes off... brakes on... Sorry I don't have a good pic(I used too) loaded on photobucket, but I custom painted my Ram on the front bumper...(ring still silver, OB background, black Ram Head with OB eyes) and my current project, is a new custom painted shift knob...(still trying to decide if I'm going to inclued the 135/24R like the photochop) original photochop I think that is all, for now......anyways
I have made some pretty big changes to a car that is love or hate and this seemed like the section to see what you think. 2003 PT cruiser here is a before and after and rather than post some picture i thought i would just add a link to the car. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2503148/1
My turn. What you see here is a stock neon trunk with no spoilor holes and a AVS bodykit spoior molded into the trunk. You'll also notice the third break delete and key hole delete. Caliber SRT-4 badge off the assembly line months before the release of a part number. Paint matched side view mirrors, paint matched fog light surrounds, cabon by design carbon fiber splitter painted duplicolor flat black. soon to come, headlights, white calipers, some kinda paint job. Deffinetly a work in progress.
