Some things I'm working on

[tony]

For those who dont know or care I hit a deer last week and messed up the front end of my car, suprisingly the insurance company has been very helpful in putting my car back on the road even though it is completely modified. The deer ended up causing $5,000 worth of damage so I may be taking up deer hunting as a new hobby this fall. :king: Here is a picture before the accident:

Heres a picture I took with my camera phone afterwards:

Damn it just breaks my heart to see that picture. Well my car is twin turbo'd and the intercooler never got direct airflow and the temperatures under the hood stayed pretty high so I've decided to go with a top secret replica bumper and CF vented hood:

Couldn't find a Top Secret bumper on a black G so this is the best I could find.

I have a friend that does an AMAZING job on headlights, he originally put bmw projectors for my low beams but now he's going to do that plus put M3 bi-xenon's for my fog lights/high beams so I wont miss the next deer that jumps out at me:

D&D Customs will be painting the whole car so the paint job will look perfect, hopefully everything will be done before SELOC's car show. I was looking at finding sponsorships but I've pretty much done everything out of pocket up to this point so I dont know what else can be done other than rebuilding the engine.. and I'll be able to do that next spring.

[HiPSI]

so I wont miss the next deer that jumps out at me:



i think the point is more to be able to miss the next one that jumps out in front of you ;)

[tony]

ha..you're right, sorry its a saturday morning .. so I will MISS the next deer that jumps out there at me.. thanks for the heads up.

[5thgcelica]

that should look realllll good.

[ProjectWidow]

it's good to hear that the insurance company is helping you instead of trying to make it hard for you. that should look really sweet when its all back together again. does your friend do all sorts of headlights? cause i might have a few questions for him

[tony]

I know he's done Evo headlights but I'm not sure what else he's done.. I'll shoot him an email and ask.. that is your prelude right?

thanks for all the NWS threads btw! lol

[HalfBaked]

Damn man that sucks you hit a deer. But the car is gonna look sick after you get it back together.

[ProjectWidow]

I know he's done Evo headlights but I'm not sure what else he's done.. I'll shoot him an email and ask.. that is your prelude right?

thanks for all the NWS threads btw! lol
yeh man if you could, thanx. i've been doing some research myself on the hids but doing it for my first time i dont want to mess anything up. no prob on the nws threads, more to come!

[JITB]

So i guess u wont be "out" for awhile than...:( Car looks better than mine dented up...lol

[Repost Squintz]

ur car is t3h hotn3ss... well it was until that damn deer had to ruin it; PLZ post pix of your car when you get the topsecret front bumper put on

[tony]

Thanks for the compliments! After some thought I'm scrapping the hood.. I think the vented hood takes away from the luxury so I'm just going to stick with stock.

[ironchef]

Why dont you get a non vented cf hood?

[tony]

I've had a CF stock hood before and because the stock hood is actually aluminum there really isn't much of a weight difference..and I have a stock hood sitting in my garage.

[HiPSI]

stock aluminum hood > carbon.

i had a FG hood for my miata for a short time and it was actually heavier than the stock hood.

[Cliff]

Is this something you do every year?

[tony]

To get it done I hear some people are quoting $2k-$3k.. that is for the G35 though. I've been getting a lot of pm's for the guy that did the headlights, unfortunately he's not doing the headlight thing any more because its too time consuming for him so this is the last set he did.

[greencivicaretheshit04]

g35 are the shit exspecially black ones with black rims

[The Ren]

[tony]
