At that point, who knows maybe another J-series swap.....

Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Anonymous on May 11, 2008, 09:36:16 AM new photos added as of 5/11/08. *not the same pics from G7A* HFP kit recently repainted to try to match it closer to the rest of the body....personally it still seems a little lighter than the rest of the body, however not as noticible as before. I can take the car back anytime to add another darker shade of red, no charge, what do you guys think? mod list also updated.
Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: timot_one on May 11, 2008, 10:36:55 AM Looks good Ryann. It's hard to tell the color difference in the pictures, but I would assume it's a little more noticeable in person.

(http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f199/Ryann84425/DSC01215.jpg) Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: timot_one on May 11, 2008, 10:49:56 AM Wow!! You can tell a difference there. That's weird that the lip is lighter than your car though. I would expect it to be the reverse since the HFP kit is newer. Either way, it's not noticeable in the newer pics. I'm sure there's a difference if you look close enough in person, but the shop did a good job blending it.
Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Moe on May 12, 2008, 04:17:16 PM I normally don't prefer red cars, but your coupe is nice. I wouldn't mind having that color.

I'm sure there's a difference if you look close enough in person, but the shop did a good job blending it. NVA-AV6 says its still noticible, not like before, but still needs a darker shade, mostly in the front, but the rear is good. as far as on the sides, it'd need a little more. so with that said, that'll all get done again this weekend.

Welcome :D Quote from: "Abailey4" You need some close ups of your mirrors! I've still only seen cell pics. I'm having a hard time taking shots of the mirrors while they are turned on, which is how I want to present them to you and for the rest of this community. I'm currently negotiating a deal for an DSLR camera and should come into a close by tonight. If the deal pulls through, then expect to see shots sooner than you think. Quote from: "clapton924" Nicest red car on here. Did you get your whole car repainted? At the time I got it in the body shop, I only got the HFP kit repainted to match the car, almost somewhat close and will not be returning my car at that particular body shop. I'm gonna get the entire car repainted in the future as I hate seeing the cars imperfections almost everyday.Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Jade06 on February 28, 2009, 09:44:31 PM Ride is looking really nice Ryann, loving that 1st picture!

Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Latin2nr on March 03, 2009, 10:35:35 AM I'm not sure if it's too late to welcome you but welcome no less, for some reason red on a car seems a bit alluring, well thats what my wife sez anyway
and sometimes I have to agree with her. Being one of her favorite colors I also owned a honda of that color, couldn't hold on to it very long cause my wife refused to ride or drive in a car that low. I miss that car, when I saw your CM it reminded me of my little old red honda. Here's a pic, Enjoy.

Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Latin2nr on March 03, 2009, 07:17:22 PM It's was a 1994 Honda Accord EX wagon w/ 86,000 original miles.
2 1/2 drop front & back I had 18's Shaved door handles Shaved antenna Remote start Remote doors Billet grille top & bottom Man I miss that sucker. Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Anonymous on March 03, 2009, 08:30:51 PM what happened to it
Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: Latin2nr on March 04, 2009, 01:57:54 PM Quote from: "Ryann84425" what happened to it Nothing really, I had a 99 ford expo, my son a 95 accord sedan and I the 94 wagon, My wife refused to drive it, I used the expo more than anything and the wagon was parked five days out of the week or sometimes more, so it made sense to give up the wagon and save some gas and insurance for a car that we didn't use much. Funny, the guy that sold it to me found out that I was selling it and bought it right back from me, he said he missed it too, karma, ain't that something. I got the same of what I paid for it. Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: ROLO on March 04, 2009, 02:07:35 PM I love this coupe.. it's so clean man.. interior and exterior... Mas Props Ryann.

Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: seththekorean on March 12, 2009, 08:50:03 PM That makes sense. I was thinking about buying one of Tim's down the road.
And going along with those being your last exterior mod (or one of the last); i also like the subtle touches you put on the cm.

Title: Re: [Profile] Ryann84425 Post by: seththekorean on March 12, 2009, 10:29:30 PM i mean there 's no crazy aero, etc parts. and ive always liked your taste in 5 spoke wheels. the fiberglass grill, fogs, visors, 5zigen wheels and hfp kit all go well together as well the flow of the car.

CAR NAMES!! well before it drives with barely any TQ until it hits 3K rpm which is pretty much like most people experience with any J30 w/AT, but now, it feels like it has more TQ before getting to 3K rpm. It still aint no Juggernaut though. I think Steves car or your car is best suited for that, based on both car and driver. Good idea for next Squad wide topic.
