Project all smooth NSX has more progress.

[ling427ttvette]

I need to find my digital. For those of you who haven't seen it from the start, just say so if you want to see the start to now.. it's been through alot so far.

For now, two crappy cell phone pics showing off the new color:





Here's an old pic of the front bumper that really shows the color:





Hopefully in a couple days after the paint has really cured I'll be able to finish the windows, get this thing mounted onto the chassis and decide if I want to paint the wheels or not.

wow, love the color, good lookin car, you should change it from smooth nsx to saleen s7, kinda looks like it

[kungpow420]

you should get disk wheels that would really set it off.

[ling427ttvette]

Disk wheels? What do those look like?

I currently have these for it:


The Scion BK wheels.

disk wheels:

aka dish wheels

[ling427ttvette]

Eh, not feeling the disk wheels too much. Those to me are more of an old hot rod kind of thing. They might look ok on there, not sure though.

Front bumper, headlights and hood installed:



Need to paint the rear bumper and the windows and it's DONE! Finally.. god it's taken way to long for this thing.

Edit: I just want to say, I need to find my digital.. these do this car absolutely no justice. I can't stop staring at it.. god it looks so good in person.

Edit x2: Windows are painted, bumper has two coats of blue and waiting a couple coats of clear and then it will dry.. and hopefully be installed late tomorrow night. WOOT!

That bad of a picture or everyone thinks its ugly and doesn't want to hurt my feelings?

[stang_racer]

are you gonna do the windows??? but anyways looks pretty good, a few details here and there and she'll be good.

[ling427ttvette]

Read my edits there killer. Windows are done, I just mounted the rear bumper.. she is FINISHED!!

I need to find my digital still so I can get better pictures for you guys. I'll shoot a few with the g/f's phone real quick, hers takes better pictures.

[ling427ttvette]

Pictures suck, but you guys get the idea.. this thing is killer. Looks way better than I ever thought it would.

[stang_racer]

oh ok lol looks great!!!

[ling427ttvette]

Thank you. I hope like hell I find my digital so you guys can really see this thing. If I find it I'll see if I have a good spot outside to get a pic or two.

For those of you who remember the progress, how do you guys think it turned out? Does it look alright? I mean I think it looks great and that's what matters most, but I want to hear your opinions. Tell me if there's something you would change, if it looks like crap still. The body work is not perfect on it still, but is it really ever?

Thanks for the comments so far!

looks great i was wondering when you where going to finish it.
but it turned out great, must be very aerodynamic.

[aaronz350z]

looks good

[TheB1GDude]

Looks really good man..... are those the deep dish scion rims in the last picture?

[stangdude94]

looks sweet love the color

WOW 400th post oh yeah

[ling427ttvette]

B1G, sure are. The BK wheels are on in all the pictures. Was thinking about painting them but I'm not sure on what color if I do paint them. It will just be the spokes that I paint if I do.

As for aerodynamic, surely alot more than the stock look.. but it will never ever be driven with the body on, heck it's got a stock Gen 1 chassis under it. Even though it's kind of a shame to the car and chassis, it will be a shelf queen only. Probably going to get a display case for it and take the antennae off of it. But, all of my others get driven so it's not like I hoard them just for looks.

nice nsx i like it alot

[aaronz350z]

i tried painting mine after i seen this and it turned out crappy

[ling427ttvette]

I'm glad I inspired you to want to paint yours.

How did you do it? Brush paint or spray? What color?
