I tailgated a LGT up an on-ramp yesterday in the Sonic. I was feeling pretty good until the LGT hit 3rd gear and hit the throttle hard. Work party at my house this weekend to get mine back on the road. :lol:

 

I was with the wife on the motorcycle on Saturday and saw another GRP wagon by the Issaquah P/R headed up and across 900 towards the zoo.

Letting the cat outta the bag here because I'm so excited! Got a MachV wing right when I came home thanks to theblackpearl and painted it and test fit it tonight. Going to need to get some wire to extend the brake light and some hose for the rear washer before I can get it up permanently.

Yes, yes you do. You also want a JDM trunk garnish for this look:

I was trying to buy one of those Mach 1 wings from a guy up north. Just could not scrape the cash together to get it. Need other things first....

 

Nice job magnuson on the paint, looks great!

I bought the one from theblackpearl. I knew he had it just had to scrape together funds to get it from him. I wasn't happy with my paint job so I took it to a shop to have it done. In pictures it looks good but actually looking at it it wasn't good

Wing looks great and wagon is coming around nicely! Thought about getting that wing myself when I saw it for sale. How close was the paint match? Black and any dark color really is tough to do.

I used the cans from automotive touchup and it matched well but I didn't buy enough and the cans sputtered a bit leaving a bad finish so I decided to have a shop paint it. I'll see how it matches hopefully Friday afternoon

Tapatalk doesn't want to upload the picture but I got the wing back from the paint shop today. Looks great! Forecast looks like rain soon so I'm going to let the paint set inside a bit more before letting it go out on my car to prevent any waterspots or damages before the paint fully cures.

lol I need to take it to an exhaust shop and get the hangers bent a little. The center one keeps falling off and the midpipe scrapes. I'm too lazy to fix it every time.

Photo Dump from the past week. MachV wing is sitting in my room curing still and will hopefully get installed later this week. Just don't want to damage the fresh paint job.

Great, sell it to me and I'll fix the hanger.

 

Also, lol at your wagon at Stancewars. I'm sure they had no clue what it was.

:nono: I'll fix the hanger. My neighbor has an exhaust shop

 

I'd walked in originally and parked outside and then saw a ton of empty spaces and then drove up and they asked if I was "VIP" and after I replied no they said you are now. Head up to the 4th floor. which was 1 floor below the "top 100" cars. It was kinda cool but I know my car didn't get a lot of attention

I hope you know I'll never stop asking. Lol

 

Haha well it's not a slammed STi so it will never get the attention it deserves there. It's much, much better than a slammed STi; hence our elite club we have on this site.

 

Holy Crap those images are HUGE!
