Echelon04 06-27-2005 10:59 PM

I would lower it so more and tint those windows. I'm not really feeling the rear bumper, but I like the front a lot.

paradoxblue 06-27-2005 10:59 PM

nice for a diy.. first timer?

doubtfull i wanna learn to do my ownm work.. but NOt on my vic. lmao

hmm i think i will have to mold my side skirts when i isntlal them :D

technick03 06-27-2005 11:02 PM

not feelin' it, I like em' stock w/rims, haven't seen a kit I like yet on a eclipse. Props for doing all the work yourself though.

TeRRoRiFiC35 06-27-2005 11:15 PM

that dsm isnt done, its time for engine work

boombazokajoe91 06-27-2005 11:19 PM

nice job..

ragingSPAM 06-27-2005 11:20 PM

well its not really my first time but i did a lot of practice and study of autobody work...i just went with the blitz cuz i think it sells better..and the windows are tinted already but just not that dark...i woulda gone with the stock body but it cost a hell of a lot more than the blitz kit which i got...so i went with the blitz and the oem headlights were too expensive so i went with the halo projectors...engine i left stock cuz i wanna let the new owner do the mods they want themselves...i dont wanna lower it more cuz my bumper scrape like crazy at that ride height...its lower than stock since i got adjustable coilovers but i dont wanna risk mashing the front bumper up cuz i lower it more...maybe if a buyer wants it like that but ill leave it for now

AzNTiG3R 06-27-2005 11:25 PM

nice vic!!!! oh looking good on the eclipse too!!

civicskater 06-27-2005 11:50 PM

i usually dont like eclipses, because the way they look...but yours doesnt look bad, good work

kasimmmmm 06-27-2005 11:52 PM

wow looks deadly! I like it! mod list? got anything special under the hood?

FTK01CIVIC 06-28-2005 12:12 AM

i like it! good job :tup:

ragingSPAM 06-28-2005 12:24 AM

thanks for the comments guys....yea that vic is mine too...black housing and sidemarkers were the first mods...to the eclipse all i have done now are external mods nothing to the engine cuz i wanna let the buyer mod the engine themselves...plus its an AT so i dont wanna keep it...good for some highskool student or some chicks that like badass cars but dont wanna hastle with stick...and for us honda fans i decided to paint it with Night Hawk Black Pearl because after seeing a friends vic in that color i loved it with the blue pearl which reflects in the sun

JCiv03 06-28-2005 03:06 AM

Job well done! :_beer:

KnocturnalEM2 06-28-2005 03:33 AM

Props for doing the work yourself...I too am not feelin the rear bumper...other than that looks clean!!

kDiAbLo_718 06-28-2005 04:38 AM

You ever think about puttin a lambo door kit on it, it would look sik

exturbo6 06-28-2005 07:48 AM

get new engine and build that thing.

03civda 06-28-2005 08:12 AM

Looks Good!

Kyle23 06-28-2005 09:06 AM

I dont like the rims at all and the back tail/brake light looks like it has hella scratches on the top and bottom of it so that looks like shit... Those tires need to be worked on so that they shine black and not gray so that it matches the rest of ur car but that body kit does look pretty decent (sorry for all the hating, it just needs to be touched up a little bit..)

orion_squall 06-28-2005 10:33 AM

eclipse use to be my dream car when mitsubishi wasn't available in Canada.

cubanmike26 06-28-2005 10:42 AM

I've always liked that year's Eclipse, but yeah I agree on the rims too, they look kinda small. I have a friend that has the same car w/ 18"s and they look sick on his car. Imo, those cars look awesome with a nice kit. Hey raginSPAM, I've seen some real nice chrome tail lights that'd look great on your car...I see if I can fing the eBay link. Nice body kit by the way!
Gotta give you rep for doing the work yourself...

I love it when people leave there licence plate number on there car.. if i wanted to i could find your car so easy, and jank all those mods. man be more careful.

MiamiUgen7 06-28-2005 11:01 AM

looks good. needs turbo and a huge FMIC though :hgrin:

ragingSPAM 06-28-2005 12:03 PM

good luck gettin to my car...its not even in the same city where it says its registered...anyways i dont care about the license plate cuz u can see it if im on the road and what are most people gonna do?...heh anyways the taillights are fine and have no cracks or scratches...its just the trim around them is a little dirty with dust from when i wetsanded the primer...not diggin the altezza tails but thanks for the suggestion...rim i only got cuz it was cheap thats all..

chicohonda02 06-28-2005 01:07 PM

Body kits on a black cars are so hard to see. But it looks good.

ragingSPAM 06-28-2005 01:21 PM

in the pictures its hard to see...hell when i walk next to the car its hard to see but it looks very stealthy especially at night...i dunt wanna go with a lambo door kit cuz its too expensive for what i get....if it was like 300 tops maybe but since im not keepin the car i dont really wanna get one...for the vic that is a possibility

Colombian4Lyf 06-29-2005 05:10 PM

nice job on the doing it yourself. How hard is it to learn to paint, a friend will be teaching me some basic stuff. I feel for my vic, as I trial and error over the winter...lol

ragingSPAM 06-29-2005 07:11 PM

its pretty easy to learn and to paint...but to do it well its hard...having the right hand strokes and movement patterns is very very important...and even coverage...otherwise ur paintjob will look like shit...also a paint booth is HIGHLY recommended and not doing it in a garage with drop cloths all over the place and calling it converted to a paint booth...it makes me sad to see those who do that without any proper ventillation and air drafting...dust free is very important

HondaGuy12 06-29-2005 07:14 PM

i loved my eclipse also.. nice kit.. looks alot like my old eclipse.. here is mine..

and this is what i started with.. i did everything myself.. i think it was pimp.. the only reason i got rid of it was because it needed engine work..
