*exitspeed* · 11-21-2006, 10:51 AM

WOw the way the tailight lines up with the fender is soooo nice. Good job. I'm sure this is the first time anyone doing a S15 taillight conversion has ever got props on Zilvia.

Can't wait till it hits the streets

PoorMans180SX · 11-21-2006, 04:17 PM

Nice man, trendsetter?
Can't wait to see the complete product

wrapmeup2005 · 11-21-2006, 04:23 PM

IMO go black, white, or silver adding in pearl however you like. DON'T do money green or silvermoss

you don't want to make the color bland and ruin the masterpiece thats being created.

that wouldn't look nearly as good on a car with big, flat panels as it does on that little curvy wheel. plus it would be pretty hard to paint

cvc9216 · 11-21-2006, 04:36 PM

car looks good I think it will be bad ass if you can pull it off right

so you're not happy unless every modified 240sx get beat up on the track? Extensive hand crafted metal bodywork is a little different than cheap paint and zip tied knock-off body kits. If it were mine I wouldn't take it to the track

status:one · 11-21-2006, 04:57 PM

Choosing paint has been one of the hardest decisions of this project.

psychoblue23 · 11-21-2006, 05:26 PM

Thats some clean body work there... with the rear and front of the car being so big looking tho.. I wonder what that will do to the center portion of the car.... Good luck and cant wait to see the finished work.

wow im pretty sure nobody ever said anything about not being happy unless every modified 240 gets beat up on the track. go build a birdhouse and stop being a tool.

btw show car = fail.

a few more...

EndLeSS8 · 11-21-2006, 06:03 PM

With those wheels, I think a dark blood red colour is calling out to you...

**ThatGuy** · 11-21-2006, 06:10 PM

White Pearl Body
Black Pearl/Anthracite Roof

Or decide for yourself, because that is the best bet anyway.

Please drive this car, and not just to car shows.

I'm not asking for people to choose the color for me, i'm just asking for some ideas.

I have a few ideas in mind, but the more input i receive the more options I have to make my decision.

For those who are questioning the reasons for the build and the functionality of the car...I don't really see the point in building a car just to sit in a garage all week...that's just a waste of money imo. An expensive, good looking peice of metal that has no function really isn't a car at all. I'm sure everyone in here agrees with me on this. Will I show this car? Yes, but I am building this for me to use and enjoy like the rest of you.

midnight zenki · 11-21-2006, 07:26 PM

Nice work so far, what are the plans for the recessed body line where the black tape was originaly seeing that the rear fenders lack said line? Also please tell me that your shaving and filling the third brake light, it just woudn't be right with that oh so clean look you've got going on the rear conversion.

Way ahead of ya

A section of the rear hatch is actually going to be removed and replaced with new sheet metal. The third brake light will be scraped since it's located on the metal that is going to be removed. The new hatch will also include the lines associated with the S15 trunk lid.

As for the recessed lines on the body where the black tape is located, they too are being filled/removed.

After the fenders are finished, the hatch is going to be modified to complete the look.
