awesome. thanks alot. ill take a run to the auto store later and pick up a bottle. Ill post another pic of the "hopefully" shiny tails when im done.
Re: check out my ride and tell me what you think
not a bad ride. I'd go black on the interior. (opinion) But the red/black interior is a very cool theme. I think there's too much red in the engine bay. I looks tacky and cheap. you even painted the plugwires. and got paint on some of the black plastic caps... i would have stayed red. much easier. you have alot of work to do to clean it up.

thanks for the compliments. I polished all the red off the motor and cleaned all the parts up so it looks new again. I'll throw some pics of that up when i get time.

They did get a little better but they would still get a little haze after a day or so. So i bought a can of clear coat and kept doing light coats and 2000 grit wet sanding and they look brand new again.
Re: check out my ride and tell me what you think
not bad but you should defs get a can of nightshade and black those tail lights out. it looks better than polish especialy on a black car.

not trying to sound like an ******* man, but IMO the car looks like ****. i mean to each his own but goddamn. the best things on it are those OEM tails. i mean its somewhat understandable if you bought it with all that gnarly red **** on there, but i mean fix it the right way dont just buy stock in a spraypaint company and go to town with it. lol. and i mean really, the turbo badge, just gives you a bad name and is just all around pathetic. dont put a turbo badge on there just cause you think it makes you look cool, but it really does the opposite and makes you look like a jackass because the cars not even turboed. i mean im sorry for stating my opinion, but holy ****.
Re: check out my ride and tell me what you think
honestly. i think chrome is tacky. might wanna do the paint over. i'd smoke out the headlights & taillights. i'd leave some of the red inside but not everything. overall, doing everything yourself, it doesn't look too bad.
