I wanted to keep laminar flow as smooth as possible by keeping the grill block up front yet still "flow" with the "looks" of the car

Looking way better!!!:thumbup:
Oh and understand the girl friend issue. My wife is not to happy I have my car all painted now looking good and now I'M installing the LP turbo behind the driver seat. lol It will be box in with a 1/4" steel scatter plate just in case it decided to come apart.lol |

I liked version 1 well enough... v4 turned out very nice. If you take a black Sharpie to the fasteners, you won't hardly notice those either.
Can't say I care for the gf though :P Counter her threat by saying you will trade in your Subie for my old one. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y26...nt/Work018.jpg |

That's one of the problems with my girl, she's very sensitive to what other people think of her. But hey, it gave me a reason to fine tune my fiberglassing. |

I am sorry that the fourth iteration was the result of drama. I have heard that once is an anomaly, but twice is a pattern. Hopefully this does not continue to be a problem.
What about your wheels? :D Good work and good luck! :D |

The wheels were actually not that hard to convince her to let me paint gold. I told her it's the trendy in the car world, just like her clothes are trendy. She said she's okay with gold rims as long as they are not shiny bling gold, lol! |
Feel for you, bro!
My wife asked me on the way home last night what that "EPS" light was on Turtle's dash. I confessed that it was on because I had pulled the fuse to the electronic power steering so the battery would charge better and to give me better gas mileage. Like five minutes later, she asked "does everybody that has one of these get that kind of gas mileage?" I replied "no, I actually have to work at it to get it, some people just drive theirs". And then she busted out with "wow, that's amazing"! And so it begins . . . . . |
My advice is dont tell her about your next mod, she probably won't notice. :thumbup:

You know it's funny, my dad used to burn 10 gallons a day going to work and back, and I used to complain to him, even getting a car that got 30mpg would pay for itself in a year. Ever since he got his Corolla and saw how much less money he has to spend going to work and back (200mi) he only pokes fun at my eco-modding/driving because he is Dad, not because he thinks it's stupid like he used to.

Looks great. You've definitely improved!
|
You are not nailing coroplast to your wheels? :)
|
VERY NICE JOB!! (shouting from the rooftops!!!)
Am also impressed with the pictures. It is difficult to photograph things that are black. |

It basically takes 3 exposures and blends them together, that way you can achieve details in the dark and light areas at the same time. |
