Yet Another New Toy for the Prix


92turboLE

Recommended Posts

Found this in a Dumpster at a body shop... it was attached to a hatch from a 98 Integra GSR, but when i sized it up, it was a perfect fit, and it matches the contour of the trunk and the lines of the car perfectly, and has an 18inch LED brake light built in.

 

I assume that the body shop was throwing it away to give them a reason to order more stuff and charge more labor. I asked the guy at the shop and he told me that if there was anything else that i wanted then i can grab it if it is in the trash bin or this big pile of shit in the back.

 

not a bad score if you ask me. I Just need to finish painting it and drill and mount 'er up and wire the brake light in. I'll post more pics when i get it installed.

looks like a later model Turbo Dodge emblem, maybe from a Spirit. cool beans :) i have an old '5-speed' emblem on the back of my car. it's from a really old 70's Honda CVCC econobox:

also, i think a hood buldge like the Turbo Shadow ES & 3.0 Duster would be cool to do, or add a flat hood vent like other TD's came with. i don't like the TGP hood vents tho; just a little too aggressive styling for an Olsmobile IMO (clashes). i'm still not sure if i'll add any turbo emblems, but if i do they'll be pretty subtle :twisted: gotta keep my 4-door sleeper sedan look going on yet look sinister enough to catch some street races :P

later

Ya, people want to knock the K-cars, but if you ask anyone at Chrysler/Dodge that has been around since before the K-Car, they'll tell you that platform is why they are still around. It's a very versitile platform and the engines (perhaps minus the 3.3&3.8) are easily modified.
