marks new paint job was soooo nice... did anybody hear who won the tuner classesI think mark got best 1996-2000 vehicle, Rostam (w/ the civic that had the 15" indash monitor) got second (I think) in that class, Scott (bomex bodykit) took 3rd and the light blue civic took 4th...someone correct me if I'm wrong there.
As for Marks new paint job, yes, it was a nice PAINT job, there were a lot of other things that I thought could have been done better by Oddens (gaps, bumpers not matching up, runs in the clear, overspray, taillight pans not grafted smoothly, etc....) Mark has a very nice looking car, and some of those things can be straightened out yet, but I'm still not sold on Oddens being a quality shop.

the car goes straight back to oddens after the show.. it was rushed togather for the show i think thats what i heard
-
i was told mark's car wasn't even done before the show, they were still slapping parts on the car as they were putting it on a trailer.
-
i was told that mark took first and Scott and the STi tied for second.
-
that STI was all stock besides gauges and a system

I could see flaws from 10 ft away. I would love to get up real close and look @ it based of what i could see from 10ft. The biggest issue thats not fixable now is that the hole that was made for the gas cap is definatly NOT round. Also for gods sake PAINT THE ENGINE BAY!!!! For that level of work the windows need to be pulled. I noticed hard tape lines and overspray on the moldings from 10ft as well. 95% of people dont pay attention to details so to them it looked great. To me i was not impressed and i would not be happy w/ that, but what can i say, im PICKY!
There's not much "work" that can be done now that its painted to change its appearance flaws.

Does that Orange Teg have a straightline sticker on it?
-
yes...nick did the install on his stereo........his rear vents were HORRIBLE!! and Nick i also noticed that his engine bay and that his gas cap was fuckd up.
-
i didnt think so...i guess i didnt really look that hard.
-
from what I have heard, the JIC's are gone, the FMIC is gone, the exhaust is still there, I think it still has a UTEC, and obviously the gauges are still there.
-
it says RATD R on the LP...i know for sure it had the top mount, stock suspension.....it was white with the gold BBS rims....yeah STI's are nice but not nice enough to put in a show
-
especially not stock.....speaking of the RATD R plates, I think he should change them to RATD X, the RATD R worked for a type-r but for a WRX (STi) I think RATD X would be a nice touch
