in the first pictures in this thread is that sweet car in the background a mitsubishi eclipse?!
i was going to suggest a chrome grille but it might not need it with gunmetal..
custom minis composite fronts fit good ay.. hmm

[the_soon_to_be]

looks like a honda integra dc5 to me, far supirior to any eclipse...

prefer a dc2 though

[miniman92]

yup thats my mums dc5, she has also had a white dc2 with red recaro interior, both are gorgeous cars! The dc5 is a much more tame drive to the dc2, but you gotta love vtec's, I am seriously considering a b16a2 conversion on an allspeed subby for the future, suppose I best get saving!

Unfortunately now is just a waiting game, will go down to the sprayers at the end of this week to see how he is getting on!

Its gonna be so hard not being able to polish it for 2 weeks while the paint cures, then I can get some G3 on it and start mopping to give me a nice mirror finish
