Absolutely awesome looking work!! I especially liked the headlight treatment and LED angel eyes.

Really looking forward to seeing the final product!

So... do you do small jobs on the side? I've been thinking about getting the sides of my hood painted body color and having the whole thing re-cleared, but I haven't started looking around for a place to do the work yet.

You do some nice work. How would you feel about helping me or just giving some tips for building a permanent fiberglass hard top for my miata project? I have an idea of what I'm doing but it would be nice to have some direction from someone who knows what their doing lol?

Not like I need one, but I started another project. I wanted to update the tail lights from the tinted ones to something a little different. For a second I thought that I might have gotten over my head, But I think that I have figured it out now. I only have the reverse lights in the works now, but I am going to start the tail lights tomorrow.

Got my new grille in today. It is a one piece grille so I had to dremel off the little piece on the bumper that blends in with the grille. The fitment is still a work in progress to get it lined up to my standards....(OCD)

I am re doing the tail lights. Due to the crappy look from before. This is where they are now. I am going to be running them without outer lenses for awhile, until I decide on how I am going to glue them on. On the other hand, I like they way they look without the lenses, so I might try to make a fiberglass trim piece to fill the gap between the housings and the body panels.

All scuffed ready for tint


Tinted


Installed minus lenses





The donor lenses, I still have one left to do.

Yeah, because the upper part on the ms3 hood is 1 peice, it doesn't have that very top bar. Iono. random thought I had.
