If I did then my bad just seems the way it read he wasn't a fan. Not that it is a bad thing I really don't get bent if someone says they don't like it .

I was a big fan of what he did, but then saw all the rally stripes and had to rethink what I wanted. If I misunderstood then

on me. I opened my self up to the good, bad, and ugly.

Nice! Different.

rachelcb80 · 09-06-2009, 08:38 PM

Oh! I really, really like both cars posted here!

GrnMchin, I love how the stripe fades up top. That looks soooo good! I also like your decision to leave the front GFX piece off. It all definitely looks different but looks really good at the same time. (As a total side note, I was born and mostly raised in Olympia. Moved from there 7 years ago down to MS. I miss Western WA so much. I also lived in Tumwater, Federal Way and nasty Tacoma *gag*)

Currently living near Tumwater,but to bad the Olympia Brewery is done and been vacant for like 10 yrs :(. Not that I was a fan, but was sad to see it go (Local Politics). The weather here has been crap past few day and once the sun comes out the fade turns more orange

. Will post a new pic once I get the chance. I have relatives in MS and LA. Small world.

Love the paint job. I like to see everyone making the car their own. I have considered just running the GFX chin spoiler. I haven't seen a car with chin GFX. Did you keep the chin GFX in case you decide to install it later?

At this time it's spoken for, but time will tell. I'm not going with the GM piece at this time, if I do one at all.

It was sad when Olympia Beer left the brewery and Miller came in. (It was Miller, wasn't it? For some reason that doesn't seem right but I can't think of what other company it might have been.) It really is to bad it's sat vacant for so long. The park down there is pretty though.

The only thing I don't miss about W. WA is the overcast, rainy days. The summers down here are really hot but the rest of the year has great temps and there are very, very few overcast days.

Looks good man.
On both cars!

Love it! Looks awesome.

Glad the ground effects worked out for you, the car looks awesome. I also like how the hood stripe fades out towards the windshield. I'm takin' mine up to Beaverton this weekend to have the exhaust done.

Thanks, We have some more paint planed (air brush work) but need to put a little $ back in the car fund. Plus the painter said he wants to block and sand the car to get out all the orange peal from the factory. I was floored at the difference in quality.

Looks great, I would say get the chrome fuel door and that would really set that look off.
