DRFT- the lines aren't shaved, try looking a little harder next time...
thanks for the compliments and yes i will be getting new wheels. nah, i thought i'd restore the whole car and use the same dookie enkies instead of those sexy zigens or breytons i want...
it should be repainted in a week or so. i'll flood you guys with pics when she's all shiny again :)

haha, I just realized that he was painting his roof black....not getting a blacktop SR. I guess that would explain the pics.... haha :stupid:
Hurry up and finish...I want to see pics! :x: To me S13 hatchbacks were made to have blackroofs. With the trim being black, mirrors and everything. Then on the other hand you could paint the trim and mirrors the same as the body color. Was thinking about painting my roof black since it's soooo faded. It'd match my wheels to. haha

hopefully it'll go into paint by the end of this week. i need to put on a new hub, strut, get rear rotors turned, and fix my drivers side window (won't roll down and don't know why) then it'll be totally road ready!
i'm quite excited.
well... other than me not having any carpet or ANY radio at all :(
