Updates. Had some SE panels that I pulled from the JY upholstered (although I'm probably going to have to have them redone). Also installed my most anticipated mod of the season; a Rocket Bunny S13 spoiler.

Found some almost new rear rotors at the junkyard and since I was still running blanks I figured I'd grab them. Threw a little black caliper paint on them so the hats don't rust and put them on. Not bad for $10.
Also grabbed these from some trash headlights at work that were destined for the scrap pile anyways. I'll see what I can do with them.

Gotta be honest man, I've been waiting for someone to build a cb in this style. Really like the hood vent and the rear spoiler, looks very aggressive and flows well. IMO, reminds me of the way it might be built in JDM land. Good job-can't wait to watch the progression.
If you were to go with a solid color, what do you think you would pick?

Thanks for the compliments man! There are a few more mods I have planned to really bring the style out with the build.
I've been thinking about a solid color recently but it's hard to pinpoint what I would be okay with. I really like the contrast of the black on the Seattle silver. The only color I feel I could stand for a while would be matte green, but even then it would be broken up with some kind of graphics. Eventually though I'd probably go back to Seattle silver.

Originally posted by Mike1357 View PostI've considered both vinyl wrapping and plastidip but given the current condition of my paint I'm afraid the residue from removal of either will pose a problem when it comes time to actually paint. That and I still haven't decided on what direction/design I would go with.

That GIF makes it look slower than what it actually was. Still, thanks for posting it Kev.
Thanks for the props H311RA151N. While I like going in a different direction with my build, it's cool to know that there are other people out there that like it as well.
Haven't posted a picture in a while so here's the only current rolling shot I have. Played with photoshop a bit so the balances might be a little off.

What did you pay to have the panels reupholstered? I was quoted $250.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!
