    Could use bigger/nicer wheels, less wheel gap, and I think flat black makes cars look cheap and jumping on the "hey lets paint our cars flat black because everyone else is doing it and it's the cool thing to do right now until the next stupid fad comes along" bandwagon is ultra gay.

    I do love fd's though..they have the sexiest body lines....if only I was able to fit in them...

    My 2 cents, I wouldnt leave it flat black. these really deserve some color and I feel like the matte just doesnt work with the already beautiful lines of fd's. the inspiration looks sick as hell!! keep it up though man I would love to have an fd one day!!

    Very nice! Looks identical to mine when I first got it. It has the '99 spec trim on it now with Brilliant Black. FTW

    Will look great. I would love to see it with a copper red paint job. I think it is the sexiest paint for an FD.

    If yellow, this would be awesome. Just throw your own flare into it.

    I've always wondered how they would look in a satin black, looks like a good start and the paint appears to be laid pretty well. Keep us updated, I'd love to see it when its all back together.

    Glad to hear there is a shop on that side of town, I'll be moving to loganville in a month.

    Painting your car flat black with black wheels is a good first step to looking like a bright yellow flashy car with chrome wheels.

    Yeah, I opened an account for some reason way back when but never lived anywhere near ATL so I never came back to post anything.

    Moving to the area now so I'm trying to get up to speed on where to go and hang out.

    not to mention the stock FD wheels are really good wheels. Not as much visual design wise as engineering design wise. 13 pounds a piece for a 16 x 7 is not too bad for a factory wheel.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
