NO NO NOOO, i HATE body kits, i was NEVER gonna put a body kit on it. Since the one im trying to get my hands on doesnt have good paint, i was just gonna primer the whole thing, (it already has nice wheels..and coilovers..), and just run full-body primer, stripped interior, tinted parkin lights and tinted turns. How does that sound??

And, i was probably gonna put a front lip on it too...

primering your car is the worst mod you can do!!!!



I ****'n hate when people do that. Bad paint>>>>spray paint primer. I rode around with 5 different colors on my car before I got it painted and I was feeling that more than primer.

But...again. I completely agree. bad paint >>> primer. Maintenance, future plans, and looks...

...do you wanna just buy my car? LoL

By all means...do NOT primer your car! Do not, do not, do NOT! I work at a collision center. It is HARD to deal with that primer. I primed my car, and it came time for paint for it. I have to strip ALL the primer off the car before I can even consider priming it (again) and then painting. And because I rattle-canned it the way I did...I can't just paint the outside. I have to do what's known as an "all-over" meaning the jambs and everything have to be done. Not to mention primer is high maintenance. Bug juices on the highway, tar from the road, construction zones...the whole point of primer is to literally soak up ANYTHING it can...whether it be the paint or dirt/grease and ****. If I were to keep up with my primer the way I should, I'd be sanding and re-priming about every 3-5 months.

Interior? All I can advise is save your panels. You'll possibly want to put them back in later. And by possibly, I mean more than likely.

Tinted signals...go for it if you think you'll like it. It's cheap and easy to replace those (ebay ftw) however...I don't think you're gonna like the way the side markers look against the clear/clean headlight. Too much contrast.

Not to tell you how to build your car...just telling you from my experiences in the past.
