19Cutlass94 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Report Posted April 2, 2007 lookin awesome, i'm def glad you did all this work haha, you have a creeper from wheels yeah me too. God only knows how it would have ended up if the shop did everything... and yeah that creeper is prolly older than I am But as an update. I got the hood back yesturday and got that on. Now I just need to adjust all the gaps. Its gonna take some time to get it perfect. Quote

Euro Posted April 2, 2007 Report Posted April 2, 2007 looking at your pictures again reminded me that your color is the same color that our old 94 Astro van was. I loved that color when it was waxed/clean. It stood out from every other car! Quote

I loved that color when it was waxed/clean. It stood out from every other car! Thats exactly why I love it!!! when its clean it really does look awesome, and theres no other color car that comes close! Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Posted April 3, 2007 Heres a few more. Just waiting on the bumper to be painted. As you can see in the pics Im using the one thats all fucked up for right now. Im hoping wed/thurs Ill have the other one and Ill pretty much be done. Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 damn, ordinarily I can't stand that color, but that looks hot. Quote
SigEpCutlass Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Damn Jay...you've put a lot of time into her and it's paid off. Quote
FordBoy Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 i dont know what it is but your pics never work for me Quote
97loudcut Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Looks good, I am assuming you don't have any front lowering spring on yet do you? Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Posted April 3, 2007 Looks good, I am assuming you don't have any front lowering spring on yet do you? Negative. They are installed. I just havent driven the car at all so they havent settled. Not to mention I put new KYB's in as well. Id give it about a month of driving before it gets to where Id like it to be. Damn Jay...you've put a lot of time into her and it's paid off. yeah its been about 2 months straight of working on it almost everyday! Shes not completely done, but shes getting there! I still gotta adjust the hood to get the gaps on either side the same. Im really close right now, Im about 1/16" off and its really bugging me but Ill get it squared away! Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 5, 2007 Author Report Posted April 5, 2007 Heres more pictures....... Underneath of freshly painted hood: The hood gaps. The camera flash it look worse than what it is Waiting.... Quote
AWeb80 Posted April 5, 2007 Report Posted April 5, 2007 nice underneath hood....i'm gonna leave the hood matt off my louvered hood when i paint it. hawt jay....hawt. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 5, 2007 Author Report Posted April 5, 2007 NA, I didnt paint it. If I did it would have came out looking like shit Now that I think about it, I think the hood was popped in those pictures.... which explains why the gap is so big in the last picture. nice underneath hood....i'm gonna leave the hood matt off my louvered hood when i paint it. hawt jay....hawt. I was looking up that insulator for underneath the hood, because I was going to put another one on there. Well I looked it up on GMpartsdirect, and they wanted some crazy amount of money for it, and its a special order item only. So then I saw the underneath of this hood, and now I dont think Ill be putting one back on. Quote
AWeb80 Posted April 6, 2007 Report Posted April 6, 2007 So then I saw the underneath of this hood, and now I dont think Ill be putting one back on. now its just another thing to wax and keep clean....LOL Quote

I dont thnk itll be tooo bad though. Its not like Im gonna clean that everyday. For the most part it should stay fairly clean Quote
J Posted April 7, 2007 Report Posted April 7, 2007 damn looks good! Hood gaps are a bitch to realign i HATE fixing the gap Quote
Stevo Posted April 7, 2007 Report Posted April 7, 2007 whoa whoa whoa ... you painted SOME of the car? Are you not concerned with color matching and existing fade? Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Posted April 7, 2007 No, not really. With today's technology in paint, you can match it perfect. When I took the car outside, you cant tell the difference. We have a $9,000 tool at work that actually takes the smallest sample of paint, and will give you the paint code to match it perfect. Its not really a problem. Not to mention right now Im not going to spend a couple grand to get the whole car painted... damn looks good! Hood gaps are a bitch to realign i HATE fixing the gap yes sir. They are a bitch! Quote
rockfangd Posted April 7, 2007 Report Posted April 7, 2007 omg i would give anything to have my cutty look that good. Holy long thread, nice job lol Quote
