my db1 project

GENERAL General G2/G2IC Discussion
1

about 5 months ago i picked up a grandma stock front end and left side crashed db1, car needed some serious work but it started up and had heat, ac and ps. the car was red and completely stock and looked like it would be a good daily driver and car to start a project on. i didnt take any pics till after i did some work so ill start the pics off with where i started taking them…

started out with a fresh 92-93 front end with amber side marker and bumper lights and some honda badges

then i got some no name coilovers off my friends integra

and an ebay front camber kit

then threw on some flat white spray paint

my 300 is lower than my integra for now lol

then i picked up some rota subzero with decent tires for $150 so i couldnt say no, and also went with 8k hid’s and yellow fog lights

Looks good so far

thanks man, im on a low ass budget, im married with 3 kids and im in the army so the pay isnt the best in the world…lol…but im doing what i can, in the next month or so im gonna be doing a 2 row aluminum radiator because my neck snapped on the top this week, then also gonna do a valve adjustment, water pump and timing belt…then im gonna think about adding arp extended studs, some nice lug nuts and spacing my wheels about a bit so they fit a bit more flush…but i keep forgetting to order my rear camber kit bc rite now my wheels are cambered way too much and i just got brand new tires so i want them to last more than a month lol

6

if theres anyone on here in the el paso area i could use some help with the future work i got planned, i just moved from my house to an apartment so i dont have the space to do the work anymore. im gonna be doing tophats, 1 piece headlights, a new radiator, cam plug, and valve cover here in the next 2 weeks

7

Car looks ok, but why didn’t you take your time to pull the lights off, or tape it before painting?

8

Honestly man, from experience, don’t cut so many corners. You’ll kick yourself in the ass for it later.

9

i had pulled them off the first time i painted, but after a good pressure wash it needed some touchups here and there and i just did it on the spot, i really regret it now bc now i am scraping overspray and am gonna have to repaint all the trims and shit, but this is just a temp paint job till i get the car the way i want it to ride, handle and perform then it will go in for a real paint job…

10

SEM bumper coating is what I used I believe. Strong stuff and lays nice and even

11

this is just a temp paint job…i need to put some money into my evo so i can get it ready for sale, the 300 should be selling this week, then im gonna get my wife a honda or try to…but i should still be doing steady mods onto this car…

12

went to a new little shop i found in my city today and bought some stickers and a sweet keychain…LOL also took a pic with my slammed 300 since its out the paint shop now





13

cant wait to get some black trim paint and re-do all the trims and finish cleaning up my rushed overspray job, should look pretty good…

14

dont have pics yet but last night i ordered neo-chrome bolts for my license plates, a slow as fck license plate frame, a billet oil cap, and red resevoir covers, maybe this weekend i can install my white valve cover and my blox cam plug

15

did some work while the forums were down, once i find my camera ill take better pics







16




took a pic with her next to my gangster ride lol

17

you made me proud that you went the JDM one pieces lol i signed you off on teh fuked up road when i saw your other thread…get some acetone or something to get that paint off your ambers…or get some fresh ones.

18
