What have you done to your P5 today?

[HKPRO5]

Yea same happened to me. But it looks like a rolled and pulled fender now.

I have to find out how to do the other side lol

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Updates of the car with a mock up of the headlights and rear trunk shaved...also shows where all the dents were taken out...

 

[HKPRO5]

Holy double post!


EDIT: looking good man. Still keeping it yellow?

 

[shane02pro5]

Why not just pick some up from a salvage yard?? Probably get both for $100 or less.

i went for an alignment and finally both ball joint were really bad so thats going to cost me 400+ for everything(both control arms+alignemnt)...FML lol.

What would have happenned if one ball joint went out or broke...

Alex I'm not digging the headlights right now but when everything is painted, we'll see.

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Once it is all together and the JDP is reconstructed and put on, also have the Speed mirrors with full colormatch...it should all tie together...and if it doesn't...I always have a spare set of blacked out headlights in the garage...lol...

 

[justanothermp5]

Haha...the headlights...sexy...lol...

Yea, those that have seen it know how rough it was...about 5 different yelows and dents out the ass...it was covered, then when I got hit again I decided it was time for a makeover...

Here is the pic from the last accident...the rear quarter doesn't look like much, but it was pretty bad...insurance quote ended up being right at $3,000...

Normally I am a fan of color matching things, this not so much, but more power to ya. Maybe its the chrome thats throwing things off for me. If you would say, put projectors in, the chrome could disappear... also, maybe some black in there somewheres, like the "ring" outlines?

Hooray for originality!

It's nice to see someone doing something different, rather than the same old s*** that everyone else is doing.


Wait, let me rephrase that. The same s*** everyone does, but people think it's the s*** on their car... even though 40 other people have the exact setup.

 

[JDMJNKY]

Shaved hatch ftw Alex!!!Car is gonna look good and diff from everyone else's keep up the good work.

 

[HKPRO5]

I believe im the only classic red with gold fds/ silver ms6 rims.....

 

[Rockin03mp5]

scratch... that looks nice.

am i the only one thinking flat yellow would look pretty sweet?

just an idea.

i actually like the headlights.

oh, and black mica ftw! will the roof also be black mica?



oh, and i filled up the tires to 35 psi on my p5.

 

[SASK P5]

found my buzzing/rattle. it was an exhaust clamp that had rusted apart and so the heat shield was able to move a bit.
