ill have some more updates on this today, still have to run a small skim coat of filler over the new end caps justto smooth those in and then spray it black and im done, hope everyone likes my BYS style wagon wing......
nice... i saw vipwagon place a eg bys style on the wing and it pretty tight but never mod it to fit but it's great that ur trying something out... post up more updates the close u get to finish..
a few more pics of the wing build.....layin some filler, im really diggin the look and fitment of this project. I would appreciate all the feedback....thanks guys
most recent pics of the wagon and the wing..... honestly the wings about 95% done.... in the process of makin a mold of this one so i can start producing these as direct bolt ons, hopefully will have a spoon and mugen style duckbill available also. I hope to have my carbon one ready by the nashville IA meet....LMK if your interested in one or have a style you want, ill see what i can make for you.
Oh yea bout forgot.....no longer in east TN, made the move to the queen city, Charlotte NC. The scene is definitly so much better here. Made alot of progress since i been here. The wagon is no muilti-point and obd1, gettin ready for a manual hydro tranny swap and finally started buildin an engine for it. Mini me Vtec, built y8 head, jdm ZC pistons, shot peened LS rods and some ITB's. waitin on itbs to get here so i can started fabbin up an intake mani. when the current engine gets pulled the bay is gettin a full tuck and shave and custom paint, the bay is going to be flannel. Cant wait till i get to that point, should be there within a couple of weeks i hope. Also thinkin bout doing a custom side exit street sweeper header and a little bit of nitrous just for shits and giggles. i know i wont have the car its self painted by IA but i hope to have the motor built and the bay done by then. Just gonna take some time.
how far outside of ATL are you....im there bout once a month. I can come pick it up if the price is right.... message me a price and we'll see wat we can work out. I definitly want it for sure.
Took the Shuttle to its first meet over the weekend, Carolina Hondas Crown Honda meet.....quite pleased with the reaction it got.......I got stopped as i was pullin in and was told to park it up front in the VIP section. Heres a few pics of the meet and a link to a video that was made. http://youtu.be/bHtyCqwCjfE
so sick, have you thought about rounding the top corners of the wing to flow with the car more? idk just a thought
yea i have.....im still playin with the shape before i make the mold..... i need to make up my mind soon so i can have my carbon one built for me before IA...
Picked up a sliding rag top.....well it kinda just fell into my lap but either way i finally got one..... Not tryin to copy MrM3 but i gotta install it....will post pics after install
Comments
gettin it mounted
new end caps, just cut some outta some lexan i had layin around
I was going to do the same color before I found my bronze. Car's looking good though.
Got any pictures of the recaro's installed?
I've got another rhd front firewall sitting at the house.
I bought one, did not like what the kid did with it and bought another one.
What do you want for the firewall???? how complete is it....dash....rack....etc???
Nothing more.
just the piece of sheetmetal.
I don't really want to ship it due to how large it is and the agro.
The kid cut inside the lines of the ef9 firewall so we said screw it and bought a complete firewall out of mayalasia.
looked to me like he used tin snips and a sawzall as butchered as it is.
One on the right
It is just sitting
But, overall... Cool Ride... Like the Fogs For sure..
Yea, personally I'm not a fan of how it looks currently. But keep up the good work either way.
