Soooo good. You should consider painting it honda dyno blue pearl.

tougetuned · 10-04-2015, 02:43 PM

Lol thanks guys! Still deciding on color but I started the prep work this weekend. All the rain here has made it a bit difficult. I was hoping to have it finished this weekend but maybe next if I'm lucky.

Malik · 10-04-2015, 03:42 PM

looks great keep it up...

tougetuned · 10-06-2015, 06:10 PM

Neverending bodywork, but I guess it's progress... I'm 100% new to this so it's taking way longer than I excpected. I shaved my antenna hole, filled the old rivet holes for my overs and cut the tab off. I think it looks a lot better plus you can actually tell I vented my rears now.

How it's going to sit until the weekend when I have more time to work on it.

dluevanos01 · 10-06-2015, 06:33 PM

Looking good!!!

spooled240 · 10-06-2015, 09:26 PM

Least you have a garage! I'm stuck doing mine outside :/

tougetuned · 10-08-2015, 10:42 AM

That sucks! At least you have that nice California weather though.

tougetuned · 10-15-2015, 10:52 AM

New mirrors [emoji106]🏻

tougetuned · 11-09-2015, 10:39 AM

It's been raining for about a month straight which is killing my progress. I'm trying my best to get it painted before it get too cold to do it in my shop. Fingers crossed I will have good weather this weekend. Here's some pictures of what I've been up to.

Shaved the extra holes for the stock spoiler

Removed all my glass besides the rear

My flooded shop [emoji53]

alireza · 11-17-2015, 08:56 PM

more please

zwzweston · 11-17-2015, 11:02 PM

Those wheels are so damn cool...not many cars can pull them off. Yours is definitely one of them, can't wait to see the final product.

tougetuned · 11-23-2015, 10:42 AM

Thanks man! I love them, I think they fit the car perfectly. I have a lot of little things left to do before paint but it's getting there. I'll post some progress pictures soon.

Gingersmurf · 01-15-2016, 11:36 AM

Any new updates?

tricky_ab · 01-15-2016, 01:40 PM

Man... I got all excited when I had seen this tread near the top of the page [emoji53]

Sorry to disappoint guys, the weather isn't going to let me paint for a while. I'll either end up waiting till spring or paying somebody to finish it up. [emoji53]

tougetuned · 06-21-2016, 06:34 PM

Finally got around to finishing prepping my car for paint. Now to just get it sent off...

Also got the rest of my parts in!

Even more canards hehe

My favorite little touch.

tricky_ab · 06-21-2016, 08:55 PM

YES!!!! I can't wait to see this thing painted. I had quite a interesting talk to the Car Modify Wonder guys while I was last in Japan. I loved each of the various kits I had seen in person.

scottie · 06-21-2016, 09:18 PM

Who made the front side canards? They are a nice touch.

tougetuned · 06-22-2016, 03:37 AM

They're Car Modify Wonder as well.

turbo2nr · 06-22-2016, 09:18 AM

YESSS cant wait to see this thing all painted! Build is coming along amazing

I<3BEWBZ · 06-22-2016, 04:36 PM

this is looking so rad!

ehhhregartless · 06-22-2016, 07:36 PM

tougetuned · 06-23-2016, 10:41 AM

Thanks guys! Here's a render I had done of it.

RB25GUY · 06-23-2016, 11:08 AM

Looks good!

scottie · 06-23-2016, 12:32 PM

Ooooohhh Yeeeaaahhh

tougetuned · 06-26-2016, 07:26 PM

She's officially at paint [emoji16]

pacotaco345 · 06-26-2016, 09:17 PM

The render looks sick! Every time I check your build I hope to see paint on the car but that'll hold me over for a week or two, awesome car man!

BoostyMcZface · 06-28-2016, 04:35 AM

i really like this build man, love the progress. does your buddy run the vertex front end on his kouki? I cant decide between the lang and the jdm kouki like yours. can't wait to see this thing out of paint. in for updates

tougetuned · 06-28-2016, 06:03 AM

Not sure which car you're talking about. I loved my jdm aero but I almost did vertex before this kit solely because I found a legit kit local. Can't go wrong either way, I love both.

BoostyMcZface · 06-28-2016, 07:58 AM

Lol, sorry, I can't see pictures on my work computer. I could have sworn I saw a pic of your car next to another when I read the thread the other day.

Nice thing is, I can drive down and pick the real kit up in California and not worry about shipping. How did everything fit for you?
