Mkayyyyy,

I took a break from this to have a summer and move back from Oklahoma.
whew.

Good News:
Yay, i'm back at work on this.
I have done some work to the body. I repainted the whole car with the gray, and i plan on clearcoating it again.


Bad News:
I lost my side mirrors, I think.
The batteries in my camera died.
So, no pics for now. :[


As you can tell, it needed the extra coat!

Seems like you missed a spot while repainting it gray. As for the mirrors, you can get new ones here:

http://xmodsinternational.com/USA_ST...ARUMIRRORS.htm

Pretty cheap and it's free shipping so you know it's good! Cant wait for more pics. Love to see this thing done!

Btw, Hummer H4, you cant really get them anywhere. You might be able to find one FS on this forum or somewhere else. But it's rare. The only place is pretty much on the forums.

nice xmod. love the gunmetal w/ the black trunk lid and hood. once you get bored and want something extreme try your hand at custom work with a body kit. i not saying you have to but you can try that is what im trying to do put an evo bk on my civic but the only thing is...i cant find my civic well cant wait until it is all finished.

Looking good!

You should fab up two sets of lights, so that you'll have headlights and foglights going. Maybe find a way to do the fogs in JDM yellow.

well well, looky here! we have a girl on the site!lol, JK.

since i wasn't back when you were here,

welcome to the forum! its great to see a girl who loves cars.

well, anyway. nice going with the paint. looks really good or did look good?lol.
like B1GDude said, you seemed to have missed a spot, i wonder how you managed that.*scratches head*.

hope too see it done soon! good luck.

BTW, to make the rims look more like the ones in the pic, you can make custom Deep Dish rims out of those. here's a link:

http://xmodsforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3156

hope that helps!

later T.I.M

Nonono.
That picture I posted was taken BEFORE I painted it.
Showing the reason I repainted it.

TheB1Gdude, I honestly have no idea, because so far I only have small mods - Suspension, 4WD, lights, so on. Might be a while before i can worry about motors, :[

Goodgoodgood amazingly good news!
I finished painting, the gloss has coats x2347847328 and is shiney as hell!

I'm just lacking the side mirror, which i'll order Tuesday-ish.
That and I just realized my chassis is acting up. I'll need some help if anyone can PM or IM me, i'd rather not discuss it on my thread. ;p
nvmnvm, thank you TheXmodifyer for the help!


I'll get some pics tomorrow!
One with the purple rims SS provided, and ones with the pink of course!
