Little Green Protege

I didn't have a digital camera... And I was too excited to wait so I snapped just two with my phone right before work.





Again, they were taken with my phone. Both in very early morning. My boyfriend found his camera so maybe I can get some better pictures. This is in progress. We only have about 2 hours to work on it a night. So far, we replaced one busted headlight, installed the clear corners, did the front and back bumpers. I have ONE (yes just ONE) side skirt on right now (getting the other after work). Hopefully I can get this baby painted NEXT weekend. Rims are in the ASAP future.

And about the "ghetto stylin" right now... I really don't care. People can look at it and say "Ewww" all they want. THEIR car won't look as sweet in two weeks as mine will!!!

It's gonna look great when it's finished, I'm sure. Keep sending progress reports.
Which kit is that?

It's the Erebuni Shogun kit. We put the second side skirt on last night.... I seriously have to get pictures of this thing. It looks bad *** already! AND we took the side moldings off. Who knew they just were glued on...?? Although, the glue was a pain in the butt!

I didn't wait because my dad just got a new Lexus... and my body kit was taking up garage space and he said... "Either put it on or get rid of it. I don't want this box around here anymore." Soo.... I had to put it on. =]

I'm going to get it painted next week, after the holiday. I'm so stoked!

I wish they offered more options in kits for that front end. Guess I gotta fabricate some ideas to stand out. Looks good!

Well I suppose that's a reasonable reason. I would have put it in my room or something, but oh well.


Looks nice.

Put it in my room? You wouldn't have put it in your room if you were me... cuz then.. where would you, your bed, your desk and your computer sleep at night??





Yeah... I'm still waiting for this thing to be painted. I can't take any time off work since I want to go on a cruise in September... so I have to deal with all the paint people and stuff on the weekends.... and they're only open from 8-noon on Saturday. This is my only mode of transportation so until I get everything straightened out (the color/what I want/someone to lug my *** around for a day), I'll be driving it like this. Although... does NOT look as bad as a lot of other people's kits that aren't painted. Or maybe just because this is my baby...

Yeah... I'm white trash. I don't care!!

I also have dark roots and a dolphin tattoo, what of it??

No car parts on the lawn any more though... got rid of those.
