Driving a half-finished "project" out on the street, is probably the most RICE thing you can do. Keep it in the garage till it's finished.

It almost looks like he covered everything but the hood in suede or something because of the un-evenness in color. I'd consider myself a moderate bodyman but I've never seen primer come out THAT ****ty before, unless they're still in the sanding stage, which could be very possible. The wheels are FTL, but other than that the "project" wouldn't be too bad. The fitment looks decent but like someone said earlier it's a little shady around the lights, other than that the bodylines flow nicely and I don't see too many ghetto rigged things. I'd like to see this "work in progress" when it's done because I bet it turns out really nice.

Bingo. Its the "YO DAWG IM IN DA PROCESS OF BEING JDM TYTE YO... but my job flipping burgers just aint letting me be the racer I pretend to be" situation.

Most of the ricer kids are so ****ing broke its pathetic. Get a gd job and stop hanging out at Walmart and maybe the z/supra community wouldnt laugh at you so much.

I swear to god some of you are damn retarded. Not everyone can afford to go out and spend $4k on a paint job right after putting near that into body work. So what. My car's in partial primer right now. Granted I'm not driving it, but if I didn't have another car I'll be damned if I didn't drive it. You guys need to lose the ego because it's really making you look like a group of dumbasses. If you're going to talk **** talk **** about something you actually have a clue about.

All I have to say to that is, do it right or don't do it at all. Everyone has their own taste, but overstepping your limits is another story and thats where you end up in trouble with an uncompleted car (for a significant period of time). (see OP pics) And there is a VERY easy fix to the problem. Its called a budget.

He also has a JP sticker on the little window and there isn't anything JP on that car from what I can see.

If you can't afford the paint job, don't do any body work until you can. Simple solution. You don't wait, you end up with a car that looks like my asscrack. And that ****'s not pretty... it's made people go blind before, kinda like staring directly into the sun.

He's got the money for vertical doors and garbage chromies but not enough for at least a decent paint or even primer job...
