Yeah, thats good for a do it yourself job. I like the line on the sides.. its all like late 80's early 90's sports car-ish...haha--

But I think the front and rear bumpers could use some highlights.. like some red details or something. Or make them red with black details... I dunno, not a fan of the whole different color bumpers/sideskirts thing. The black roof looks good though with the red body!

well thanks to you all for the comliments and opinions and also ya gotta give me some credit on the windshield wiper deal i have to get it inspencted tomarrow so i took the old ones off and had to put new ones on. And yeah i wanted to use the blitz in a different way then others, for a show car you have to be unique so i tried to make it as unique as i could. i still have to wet sand he car and buff it to make the clear smooth but it sure will look nice come the 30th, my first show. And to those who asked about showing my car im already there, it is a show car but at the same time my daily driver......and i hope to make it to the pitt meet. wink.gif

it looks good overall. after that wet sand and waxing, it'll really shine. I'm not really feeling the hood painting you did, but other than that it's cool. New Oxford isn't really far from me, looked at an rx7 at a car dealership one time up there. But awesome on the DIY. Like I said it flows pretty well other than the dragon IMO.

EDIT: I really like the 2 tone w/ the roof, that's JDM yo. You wanna paint my car?? wink.gif

You know, I do like it actually. I don't like the wing but other than it's pretty slick. Needs lowered obviously, I really like the two tone part of the hatch on back, that looks great. Nice job really.

not bad

but personally I would not have painted the whole front in black. just the part that sticks out and slopes up toward the wheel well. then I would have added some carbon canards along it. also would of nixed the dragon, front grill, wing, and stripe across the side. finally some bigger rims, and coilovers/bags

but really, a pretty decent job. definetly not my style but I know you put a lot of work in it, so props to you

also any pictures from the rear? wondering whats doing back there

Very original. Although its not my style, I think it looks very good. If the skirts and bumper were red, I think it would be amazing.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
