Gotcha...
well, overall it looks great.

 

11 months ago, I bought the POS on the left. 400 hours of work later...





Still have decals and clean-ups before I really call it done... and even then it's only 'done' enough to start entering local car shows.
A lot more fettling before it's SEMA-worthy, but I'm gonna start trying to get my foot in the door!

 

Very impressive work. Those wheels look great on it for daily driving it but I think for SEMA your going to need something with a much more aggressive fitment on it.

 

if you're good at marketing, SEMA would be no problem...
one of the youtube guys went to SEMA without any car to show...only the "promise" of a cool project car to come... that's a master at marketing.

I think dude showed up with like 4 wheels and called it good. it was enough to get people to either invest or whatever.
it's one of the very popular youtube dudes. I forgot who. like Rob Dahm or something

 

Took her to the neighboring company's super large parking lot for a few quick photos...













If you're asking, why Cinderella? Besides being under the influence of a 5 year old daughter, I've always liked the idea of princesses being a little edgier/sexier than traditionally portrayed.
So this is her pumpkin carriage with a modern day twist.

 

That looks awesome and GREAT job on the wrap, looks really good.

What are the interior plans?

 

My secret weapon for wrapping:



I'm probably gonna keep the interior fairly simple, but clean it up especially at the rear where it was cut off.
Though I know someone at work who used to do car and aircraft interiors, might go to him for some advice.
Would love to at least have leather seats so I don't get zapped every time I exit the car...

 

love this so much, hopefully i'll run into in person one of these days!

 

Looks very nice. Good job.

 

Thought about this thread Friday, saw a Scion XB that someone made into a little pickup. Looked well done at highway speeds.

 

Just put a grounding strip, hanging from the underside of the car, down to the ground. No more zaps!

 

Car looks fan-fucking-tastic - wrap job looks great.

 

Toyota makes that in a mini pick up version. Not to jack the thread, but they do.

 

 

Picked this up at the inaugural Royal Fitment show in Hayward, CA this past Sunday... small friendly show, and I learned quite a bit. Have a much clearer idea of what else needs to be done for future shows!

 

Congratulations on executing your vision!!!! Would have loved to see you do this to an RSX, but this prelute is definitely unique and badass!

 

Best Trucks... That is the one that matters

 

 

 

I saw that yesterday and thought of this car...

And then this evening, I find out that OP has been cheating on Azine with that whore Jalopnik!

OMG those fork mounts

That'd make for a fly AF team car for a bike team


Awesome work

 

jalopnik probably paying him more

 

Absolutely incredible work, that thing is awesome....

 

came here to say; saw the build on the web. cool shit man! already on your way to marketing it at SEMA

 

been following your stuff here but just say you posting on Jalopnik and then receiving COTD!!

 

Thought I'd post some of the latest pics here...




Late night dessert in downtown San Mateo, realized this might make a nice shot when I walked back to the car:


Memorial day BBQ setup duty


BBS Evo X MR rims, transplanted back from my UA7. Was afraid they would poke too much but I think they ended up being just right!
Ironically they ride better than the Type-S waffles with 215/45 Kumho Ecstas.

 

How is the drive? you noticed any loss in rigidity after the chop?

 

rigidity in my pants is up tenfold.

 

He's serious

 

Not that my butt is that well calibrated, but it still feels stiff enough... my DC2 subjectively felt worse rigidity-wise.

Man so much innuendo.

 

 

it's not what you can see, it's what you can feel.

 

And apparently it feels quite rigid.

 

 

Won the Jalopnik Readers' Choice contest for Raddest Truck and got to display at Redwood on 6/24...

 

Good stuff... by the way your exhaust fume is burning your bumper... I know it is rigid, but you might want to pull out

 

So much cooler in person

 

looks like it's sitting lower too

 

and its got some BBK?

 

i think he bagged it, then landed a brake sponsor as well
