Good luck with it. I'm assuming you'll be painting the roof black in the near future?

Yours will somehow break 2 weeks before the dragon next year. Its the natural order of things. This car cannot be killed.

Re: Brian's White Hot Version 2

Good luck! Don't forget to throw in the MS. You can hook it up to the SOHC for now to learn about it, it will make switching to any year DOHC so much easier!

How about 3? I'm planning on eventually going the white hot route.. HAHA! I already have the DOHC! Now I just need rear discs and to get off my ass and put the black emblems on. Oh yeah, and that pesky tranny swap. And no Scotty, mine can't be killed either. Short of being crushed like a discarded beer can, I WILL fix her.

white cars are overrated anyway

Re: Brian's White Hot Version 2

a suggestion: I think the center reflector would look substantially better if you could mask off just the reverse light ovals, and paint the amber portion white as well. That's the one thing that makes it look obvious that that portion is painted and not stock. Paint that amber, and the clear reverse light section will disappear, but still be functional, and it'll clean up the look of the rear a lot, IMO.

*edit* clear corners look great on white cars, too. [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif[/img]

thanks for the tips. Actually when I was at the Dragon, i noticed Chris(ExHemp) did the exact same thing, but painted over the top and bottom reverse light and left the middle one unpainted. as for the clear corners...I just bought some...2 days ago..lol.
