wow, looks like it should turn out great, once everythings shaved. so what color ru gonna paint it?!?! cant wait to see the finished result!!!

 

I assume your on bags?? Love the tucking wheel in the rear. So what all you have planed? Shaving the side molding at least I assume? Please keep us up to date on the progress!

 

I have a nice long list I gave the guy with what all I wanted done....i'm going to keep that a secret so as he works i'll keep it updated. The body/paint guy is a mini trucker so we were just talking about how to get the front to sit a little lower. yeah its bagged all the way around..easystreet setup...1/2 air lines...1/2 valve manifold...2 tanks...1 compressor. 10 switches

and not sure what paint color i'm going with yet

You left your car in good hands then...haha. Minitruckers love some shaving. I just noticed what was shaved in the last pic...haha. Think it will be ready for Carlisle All Ford Nats?

 

no probably not...and i missing some interior stuff so before it goes to a show I need some stereo stuff and a few odds and ends....i told the guy to take his time no rush because i have another car to drive (orange svt focus hehehe) so its whatever

 

Tops all shaved

 

See:

That is a good shop.

They give you updates, don't jerk you around. It might not be 10,000sq feet with pristine walls and floors, but that guy looks like he does some quality work. Roof looks very, very good.

 

^^x2

Looks good so far. How are you getting it painted? Same style of 2 tone with the black in the middle? Or something different?

Oh, and are you getting the other part on the roof shaved as well? The part where the black rubber piece's are? Or are they taped over?

 

Shaved that beautiful character line?

Please tell me the fender curves are staying...

Looks like fantastic work though, nice find. What front end you going with with all this shavin'?

 

I have the f2 front end standard width. not sure what i'm doing with the paint yet. and I would shave the rubber pieces out of the roof but towards the front ofthe car it doesn't sit flush. it would look funny to weld metal there at a angle.

 

Wow, good shaving works!
please, shave the lateral M3-look grill

 

Man, i haven't seen your car in ages! I'm very much looking forward to seeing how it turns out! :thumbup:

 

Not a big fan of bags and super low drops but I must say.... you make it look sick. Nice shop man.

 

More updates. my hatch that I had got from someone which was previously shaved...well the keyhole still needed to be shaved...come to find out the body work was done badley so it needs to be reshaved again. heres the latest pics to show it

minor hood damage that needs to be fixed

 

Loving the pics, keep 'em coming.

 

Good Lord. isnt this the 3rd time your car's been painted bro

 

this is going too slow! hurry up! i cant hold wood for another 3 weeks :hump::hump::hump:

 

Good Lord. isnt this the 3rd time your car's been painted bro

isn't the saying 3rd times the charm

but you know how it is...out of both of your focus's you've owned i'm sure you've tried many different setups and switch...christ how many different wheels have you owned haha

 

rear bumper wasn't fitting with the exhaust I had...guess I'll have to replace it

LAYED OUT

OEM used fenders

Wasn't fitting good

hood damage fixed

 

hmmmmm im liking this. if your needing a new bumper, get a euro bumper. look a rieger's rear bumpers.

 

No offense, but I really hope you decide to replace that rear bumper. With all the shaving your doing to put a "busy" bumper like that would completely ruin the flow of the car in my opinion. A nice smooth Euro bumper would look killer...or even F2s bumpers.

 

Harlequin it.

I have a few ideas with the evo bumper...as you can see its already been started but the body lines of it at the top have been shaved and filled in, and i'm debating but the piece in the middle of the bumper at the bottom...i'm thinking of shaving that off.

The only thing I don't like about the f2 rear is the bumper lights...I don't want a big euro look. I more of just a clean shaved lowrider look.

no not my doors I think they go to a dakota thats getting redone up there. but stay tuned haha more to come
