Project: Yellow Lancer

[motochimp]

WHAT?! man that's sucks; she was looking so good. I was hoping to see new pics with the stripe and eyelids. oh well; nothing a bit of sanding and a coat of paint won't fix. Don't go ninja on your baby brother HA!

How did you messed up the wheels?

I really like that yellow on your lancer, but what other color are you thinking on painting it now? Definitely you should still do the stripe and eyelids.

[Songha]

@ motochimp: Ninja, ahha, he's too small to go ninja on. But yeah, I might keep the yellow. I just gotta go buy the paint. I'm gonna still try to do the eyelids. Only thing bad about this painting the stripe is that the Krylon Fusion is sensitive to other sprays. It's rock hard until another spray touches it. That how the baby brother messed it up. That super thin black line came out alright, but when he got to touching it, the black lines smeared and softened the yellow. Sucks but all I gotta do it respray I guess. I don't mind, I just hope it'll come out just a nice as before. Maybe better. For color change if I don't want yellow, I was thinking Lavender, Turquoise, Orange, or that weird tannish-brown color.

THIS PROJECT IS NOT ENDING! I'm ready to continue. Just need paint. Lol.

Bummer, I have a younger sibling but she is 14. lol

But our dog on the other hand is a australian shepherd so he purposely grabs my xmod stuff so that way I will chase him & try too get it back.

But for the most part all he really gets ahold of is screws or maybe a body kit piece, I keep the cars themselves on my shelves. Also I will chase him with my track car & he bites the antenna and then drags the car aqround with it. lol

But if I get a chance to start moving he can't catch it on my hardwood floor.

[motochimp]

Wait till he gets older; he'll go all jackie chan on you ha!!

I've been there.. HA! It really blows when your project it's coming out real good and then it all goes down the toilet.. yea..ha. But hey, take this as an excuse to finely fix the little bleed you had on your windows and side at the beginning.

ORANGE man go orange if not yellow. You can fully black out the wheels and add the same stripe concept with the eyelids but check this man; the side stripe make it white and then two very thing black stripes/ lines on each side of the white stripe. Then you paint the eyelids black and duuude.. you got a BLAZING HOTTIE right there man ha!

Okay, no pictures, but here an update. I got to spraying her yellow. Yes, stuck with yellow... and it's SEXIER and SHINIER now. My right side was being *** so I had to fix that. Right now, the right side is sanded down. I'm gonna have to do layers til I match is up with the other parts of the car. After than, a few more light layers of yellow and the clear coat. I'll take pictures of what I'm liking.

SIDE SKIRTS, Having a little trouble ridding all of the old yellow pieces that poke out. :|

If you need to just buy a body kit on ebay. There is a seler on there who sells the lancer bodykit for like $3.99 with free shipping.

@ Bananabrain: I've been watching that for a while now. I think I might just order it.

I need to buy another can for Yellow Krylon Fusion, I spray the regular Krylon Yellow I bought yesterday on top of that. Now she's shiny. I haven't even used my clearcoat and don't even think I'll have too. Haha, as of right now, I'm only working on the body, then I'll slowly move to bodykits. I'll post pictures of each piece I finish with as I'm finishing them.

Rims, will still be black w/ yellow lip. I sprayed the hood black to add more accent to my color scheme.

[WhiteCharisma]

Nice glad you got her shining again I wanna see some pics! And as for the wheels, the rotors are hard to cover up, but you can just paint the whole rim and detail it grey/black later. A lot of people prefer to do that cause it takes out the hassle of covering up the rotor. Or you can cut them off, they don't look that good anyway Painting the hood black sounds awesome too, make it match with the accents around the car. Can't wait to see pics!!

Project: Yellow Lancer = FAIL.

The body shell fell and I tripped and stepped on it. Lmfao.. and it broke. T^T, so sad now. I'm sorry guys. Hopefully I find another project to do and this time hopefully it won't be a fail.

awf4ja;oi4fo2i4fja;oiafa;3j4ofi;oia34farfo;iaa.. Wingless Widebody R34 next..?

AHHHHHHHHHHHH. This sucks so hard.

The kid in me is crying. T^T, now I have nothing to do when I'm bored. I think I have the worse luck ever. I have to reboot my laptop too.

Please refrain from double posting. You posted only one minute after the first post..

[Blade.]

What bodies do you have by chance? How bad is the damage on the Lancer Body?

Blade.

[motochimp]

That sucks bad man, after all the work you had put to it. **** dude that is kinda funny if you think about it.. ha! sorry mate, but hey; you got a beater body now; like to practice around and stuff you know; some stunt driving? no?

What other bodies do you have?

[Bananabrain]

Bummer, at least yours wasn't painted like 5 different colors. lol

Mine has like 5 different colors in 5 layers & I started to strip the paint off & realized I'm better off buying a new lancer body.

[Songha]

I have a black R34 and a red 370z. The black took of the EVOs chassy and I lowered as much as it can go to where I can stilll drive. That's it. xD

And here they are: (Wish I had a Titan and a trailer ^_^)


Black on Black Nissan Skyline R34, hugging the ground but still drivable.


Red stock Nissan 370z, opposite from the R34, articulation in the back and lifted.. kinda. I like to drive on dirt with that one. Looks cool to see dirt flying around. Plus no scarping the chassis since is up there.

All you need to do is grind the outer lip from the xmod rim and then tap the rim into the sleeve.

This is how it looks after paint.



Just an idea.

That's brilliant. lol Can you show me how to do that?

Thanx...unfortunately thats the only size I have found so far.

As far as using them in the front...they will definitely cut down on your turning radius since they are pretty wide.

I have only used them on the rear.

Thank you...I would have to create a tut to show you but its rather easy as long as you have a Dremel.

I was able to make that set in about 5 minutes minus painting.
