Project Si is Done
-
this thing had a HUGE 3 piece wing. It drilled into the drunk lid AND the car itself. So that had to go. I had to shave the holes in the car that were right along the body line.....sucked ass! So instead of risking warping the trunk lid when welding the holes shut, I got a factory wing to cover the holes on the trunk lid. I liked the no wing style, but due to the time restraint, this was my best alternative.
Not sure where the "Ricer Helper Outer Guy" is at. Maybe we need to shine like a symbol of a big aluminum wing in the sky and wait till he flies in. I would be interested to see what he has to say about my "rice"

no, not if you take your time and be patient. Going too fast will warp the shit outa any body panel. What also helps is this goop stuff you can get that you put around the area you're welding and it cools the weld faster. Works great, but I cant recall the name of it. Just take your time.......thats the best advice I can give ya.

just so that everyone here knows im not doggin your car dude
its a very well put together car i love it i want it....
but stock or not i still dont have a good opinion about wings like i have a tiny one on my car and its only still on there to plug the holes..
judging from the earlier pics i didnt remember there being a wing on it so i thought you chose this wing and i was like uhh ouch but its great
the car is a solid 9 for a daily driver -
great car, great color, IMO you need a rear lip to match the rest of the underbody. Love the color, very close to mine but a little darker. Any mods to the engine or is it just a swap? You should also get some times posted, as I need to get out to a track and see how well mine runs for comparison. All in all, LOVE IT!!!

I had ordered a wings west rear lip for it, but it never came in time so i cancelled the order. I will order again here when I get settled in Fargo and get a permanant address and find a place decent to paint it since I will have no supplies, shop, paint booth to paint it myself.
I would be happy to help you out Blake on your trunk. Get me your number and what not and I'll get ahold of you when I get to Fargo and we can look at it and talk about it more.
