Tony Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 my old double din kicked the bucket after i basically built my bezel around it of course, lol. so i put this pioneer in a few weeks ago. it did'nt wanna sit as flush as i wanted. plus it had a small gap at the bottom. so my trunk is on hold till i get this mounted better. should get that aall done today. was going to buy a whole new bezel but eeehhh. i'll just do a little more work on the one i've done already.

Tony Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Damn dude. That's unfortunate :/ I'm sure the unflushness of it was making you want to pull your eyeballs out Lolhahaaa! yea it kinda was >;(so heres what i am gonna do. i cut about 3" outta each bucket to shorten the depth so that i will def have enough clearence. they were just touching the top when it was down. this will void any rubbing and noises. heres the wall with 1 layer of filler and sanded real quick. gonna do some more sanding and hopefully only 1 more layer of filler to finish sand the buckets i will seal them back to the rear of the wall. i left a wide lip to attach them to if that makes sense, lol. just trying to shorten them to avoid them rubbing my top when its down.

Moderators Psychorugby Posted June 19, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I saw a Celica yesterday the same color as Tony's car. I thought to myself, "Wow Tony makes that color look way better than Toyota did." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttocs Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Dropped my spoilers off at the paint shop yesterday.

I love the way the fender looks in your signature. I think this is what convinced me to to go with some pearl in my paint if/when that ever happens. Do you have the Stalker body kit too?

Although a '00 R hood, Cobra bumper, and SVO side skirts and exhaust will run me almost as much as the kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Psychorugby Posted June 19, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 400 for 00r. 200 for cobra if you're lucky. 300 for SVo skirtsNot to hijack... $595 for '00 R , $350 for Cobra bumper, $225 for S281 spoiler, $300-400 for SVO (which I can't find anywhere), $135 for side scoops, and $650 for Borla side exit exhaust (currently on eBay). Granted the Stalker kit doesn't have the exhaust, so the difference is $500 ish more for the Stalker kit and I'd get the rear bumper with it. Certainly a toss up. The kit is super subtle on Tony's car which is what brought me back to drooling over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mavisky Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Looking good as ever Tony. I think the color works so well, and other similar colors on the SN95's, because the curves really allow a paint like that to show it's best side in all areas.

mavisky Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Yea, got busy with some other hobbies and have a daughter on the way now due around the end of August so the "Mustang Money" has been diverted elsewhere. Car's about the same as before and aside from a window motor and a master cylinder it's been just going down the road once a week or so when I decide to pull it out so kinda forgot about these forums.
