Nawaaz's Build Thread

[QUOTE=Nawaaz;2111110]Hey, I am sponsored by Skunk2 and Brian Crower.

We are doing the work all by ourselves… except for paint and sandblasting. So no shop is sponsoring this build.[/QUOTE]

Did you decide you want to paint it? or maybe you are talking about painting the engine bay.

omenbmx7 - Spring of 2010 babyyyy!

AKS92GS - Well I’m thinking engine bay and interior are going to be painted Root Beer Metallic. It will have CF hood, hatch, fenders, cf wrapped 1/4 panels and doors… and then the rest of exterior parts will be painted gloss black to sort of flow with the CF. Thanks for pointing that out, forgot to edit it in the build list.

Awesome, that will look great!

thats quite an impressive list of parts there, look like she should be rolling pretty nice.

Well, we got a lot of work done. I have been out for like 3 weeks with a lung infection, but I am back now!

Here are some pictures of the gutting.
Almost all the sound deadening material is gone, all the wiring harnesses are out. Just need to pull the brake lines and gas tank, then its off to get sandblasted. Hopefully tomorrow we get all that out, and then Monday its in the shop.

I was super surprised… NO RUST UNDER THE SOUND DEADENING MATERIAL!

On to the pictures!

Only thing going back in there, SPA digital cluster and bucket seats and a steering wheel





and in the garage at the end of the night!

I thought i saw somewhere a few years ago a company made carbon fiber doors for our 2 doors. You should look into that. Would really fit your theme nicely!

P.s. Can i get a hookup on parts pricing??? lol :slight_smile:

IIRC the CF doors were a whopping 1300 or something ridiculous like that…

my email is all_starr23@hotmail.com or my AIM is Nawaaz01 (I know you americans use that, lol)

If you can get me a link to the doors, I would appreciate it, would be soooo much weight savings its ridiculous :smiley:

I am able to get Skunk2 discounts through my Team Skunk2 Membership. If you would like pricing, MSG me on either account and we can talk there.

Yea, I would expect something like that, lol… but weight savings (as I said above) Would be ricidulous!

Still waiting on cough CF Fenders cough LOL :gayfight:

EDIT - Also picking up an EF rack this week… hopefully I can get a set of those bushings before this spring sometime :smiley: SOMEBODY SELL ME YOUR BUSHINGS FROM G2GURU! :smiley:

Well… shes gone… and I will let you guys know about my experience with Ultimate. Didn’t get a chance to meet Sid, but the other guys there seemed pretty cool.

Getting on the truck :smiley:

Completely on the truck, ready to head to the shop

At Ultimate Sandblasting and Coating (Hows that ride height for ya :wink: )

Oh, I used Reath’s Tilt and Load towing service… great guy to deal with! I will definitely be using him again in the future :smiley:

:corn:

Sooo… CONCEPT TIME!

keep it one color, get carbon for everything you can and paint the rest black

My first DA use to look like that before I got it hauled off to the yard… I’m sure you’ll do a way better job than I did. :smiley:

I want it to “pop”. I was thinking about black before… but crossed that idea out.

Haha, thanks! Im keeping an eye on your build also :smiley:

BTW… updated chop… trunk shaved.

me likey!

yeah i don’t think i can get into that. But then again my opinion is rarely worth anything. lol.

subscribed and loving the parts :corn:

im not a big fan of 2 tone tegs, but those colors for some reason just pop, and DAMN looks good:rockon:
