Silver and Blue Subaru Sti

[chrismcgee]

well here is my latest project, its gonna be box stock apart from rims and paint.
here is a pic of the proposed paint

and here it is with a coat of Ts30. gonna rub it down again and start the masking off for the tribal flames.
gonna be fun i think, lol.

the hoops that the baby is sitting on are Fujimi Andrew Goltdish

please, please, tell me your gona do something performance wise to back up that paint! Looks like it'll be sweet.

[chrismcgee]

probably just a nice hks style exhaust i think. nothing too over the top, plus the kit is a lot like the 350z, very limited as most parts are molded in. and has metal rods for axels

[86_SR5]

How about a nice front lip with a front mount intercooler and that exhaust would set it off.

Looks like it'll be a difficult masking, but i think you can handle it. Good luck.

[86_SR5]

not if he uses 3/16th's masking tape, draws the design, cuts and removes what he doesnt need.

[fujimituner235]

just leave it silver, looks better that way...and no wing!

[86_SR5]

chris, how about doing the a trible flame on the top of the wing in blue but leave the rest silver?

Chris,
Nice idea for a project Scobby, but what about those mold line in the front bumper uner the headlight, you really need to sand them out first...Slow down dude

Yeah keep this one on the DL.


Cool idea, can't wait to see the paint. I was waiting for someone to do an impreza that has big chrome wheels and cool paint rather that performance with a sidedish of performance!

[SchuberT]

awesome project idea... hope to see a good finish

What's wrong with performance oozing out of every crevice of the car? Usually Chrismcgee's cars are nice, but they don't really pique my interest because they're more show than are my taste, but for some reason I really like this one. Is it the paint? Is it the rims? Both? Not really sure, but man you're good at paintjobs so this car is gonna be superfine. Can't wait to see it!

nice work Chris. Cool project! are you finishing the kit for your 1:1 customer?


I think the most difficult part is the blue flame pattern and the bodykit.


Also, everytime you have new projects, someone will be interested with the rims you used.

It is kind of cool to see many ppl interested in the rims I sent to you. My Fabulous profound was all sold out because of this reason.

sweet can i get some sponsorship then joe???? lol.
Hiro boy i just needed to get a lick of paint on it so i can pretend its always been in the cuboard, lol. gonna be rubbing the whole body down with 1200 grit. then get a nice smooth paint job on there.

for the masking i have taken a leaf out of the vinyl signs buisiness, cut the pattern out on the flat, then add another piece of tape to the back to allow positioning. then remove the tape, simple realy. i think??????

Not gonna go with a front mounted intercooler this time but this is far from my last impreza!

the wind that i have used is the standard wrx sti spoiler, i quite like it as its very sharp and not too big,
