Well, I guess your days of taking it down the dragstrip at Moroso are finished? You realize they won't let you race without door handles, right? It is a safety requirement. Without an exterior door handle they won't let you pass inspection.

Either way Bill, it looks very nice. If you ever venture over to Towers again, I would like to see it in person. Looks top notch, as usual.

I'll give ya props for actually getting out there and doing it. But honestly it looks like something I've seen on way too many video games. Sorry... just not digging it. You should have just left her solid yellow.

Problem with that is you don't win Big Shows by just being yellow! Since thats all this car does, It's almost reguired! As is Shaved Handles & Vertical doors, But hey can't please them all! On a side Note you have Not seen the whole car & all the colors in the art work is the same colors that are ever where on the car!<<<< Plus Points!

looks amazing! Bit confused on how the door poppers work... What would happen if your battery died? Would the doors still be able to open?

I remember I saw this dude in a civic that had this on all 4 doors, but it was controlled by a remote (similar to a alarm/starter remote). Looked sweet as hell !

I have a viper autostart and keyless entry. That things sucks batteries down like a housewife does a bottle of wine at 9AM on a tuesday. I keep an extra battery in my glove in case I hear it start beeping.

Don't some of those remotes come with a slot for an extra battery? so in the case something does happen you have another battery on hand?

Mines a 10 Channel & only running the doors for Now! I'm going to tap it into the door Locks & the trunk, So then I only use 1 remote to do all the functions the stock 1 did! Unless you open & close the doors a Million times, it wont drain the battery! The remote start ups use a hell of alot more juice, I dont think I'm going to be install 1 of those! Simplly Cause it's a stick & always Parked in Gear!

Car looks like its gonne be amazing. The rips look great, and will defiently turn some heads when people realize it's not vinyl. I'm subscribed, can't wait to see the finished product and the other mods you are doing to it. +1 Rep for being original, and doing things the right way the first time.

Thanks for the rep, I always spend the money to do it right or don't do it! I hate to have it all done(Any Project) & it not work right, I have to fix Holes or something because I didn't plan it out or study it long enough! >>> The 6 P's Below in sig!
As far as looking like Vinyl, When he Highlights it like in the bottom pic on the 1st page & Puts atleast 6 Coats of Clearcoat on to make it all smooth again you will never think it's a Vinyl! The depth of the paint is going to be Awesome!

I'm going there Tonight to watch them start the Driver side & The Pass Side should have 1 coat of clear on it Now!

lol I have a viper pager alarm with the same problem. I'd have to throw in new batteries every 2 weeks. I called viper and they told me to turn off the backlight and vibration. Now it lasts a good 2-3 months just with beeping.

Just wondering, how much is all that paint work going to set you back? Looks like they are really spending some time on it, and I know that's not cheap.
