Hey I'm not sure about the black on the back....have thought of it but I just sprayed the front teeth out and then took out the bottom lip as well similar to what you did. I think it looks awesome. What size are your tires and did you lower the car?

i bought it off a guy on here as a 1 off thing, but rupe can get them at any time, although due to the current economic status they are a bit pricey atm. but very easy to install and i really like the simplicity of it,

Your car looks good well done , Did you paint ya rocker cover how did ya do it and what with?

scott b · 17-08-2009, 09:19 PM

yeh did it myself, just cleaned it all up, and polished the letters with fine sandpaper before painting, then just spray it with engine enamel.
once it was dry, just scraped the paint off the letters with a razor and carefully did a light sanding to get off what the razor missed.

maztech · 18-08-2009, 05:07 PM

Thanks i will give it a go.

SP BLING · 13-12-2009, 03:34 PM

No more updates??

scott b · 13-12-2009, 05:25 PM

I was thinking today of updating it. Got to try and remember everything I've done. But I rebuilt my boot yesterday, just got to apolster it now. But I will update this soon with a few recent shots and the parts i've done.

scott b · 29-12-2009, 06:17 PM

not much has changed on it lately,

but i did receive a set of adjustable cam gears today in the mail. they look great and feel nice and light.

just a few goodies for some fun soon to come

scott b · 22-01-2010, 02:11 PM

so there are some big plans for some big changes coming in the next few months. changes in power

the outside look and probably the interior as well. ive made my mind up on where i want to it be its just all limited by finance as to when it will all happen.
so atm i am just collecting parts as i go waiting for a big hit, a few toys due in over the next week, a lot of custom things and im going to be learning how to fiberglass, and possibly weld. but i am going to keep it all quiet till its done. but all in all the panda will be a very different car in the next 6 months

SP BLING · 22-01-2010, 03:16 PM
