Welp I came home from work at 7... Pulled off the hood washed it dried it and painted it black, going to give it a week or so then ill wet sand it and see what happens from that point.... Bye bye my awesome bowl of rice, hello ultra ghetto rattle can hood.
I do have a perfectly good oem hood in my spare bedroom I probably should just stick that on... We will see. After all the sanding and scrubbing ive done on this thing I can't believe some of the weave marks are still showing through the paint.
Before anyone thinks it might have come out decent thats a before picture... Car is sitting with no hood on it currently... Tarped up with a car cover on it.

Hood is good from far and far from good... Some of the fiber parts show through and scratches that I didn't notice before show up nice and clear in some paint.. Ill give it a week and see how it works out.
I was thinking I should just stick on my factory fresh hood and blow my neighbors minds with my superior spray painting skills.

SS brake lines with a flush, Coolant hoses with a flush, Rear shock mounts/gasket - to get rid of that DAMN annoying rattle, Z1 fuca's for a bit more camber and of course a spring O&F. But she's got to warm up a bit before anything happens 28F for a HIGH tomorrow + unheated garage = no dice! Damn spring fever! - It's punishing.

Someone said dboyzalter drank a lot of coffee or something.
I think he's just confused.
One moment he's "lightening" his car by taking out every possible thing he can including masking tape in the trunk area and now? Adds like 500 lbs of speaker, cabinet, and whole mess o'plywood. Oh wait.... removed a little weight to add a lot of it. I see now.

After removing all that weight I was having traction issues with my crazy power to weight ratio... Needed to add 500lbs over the back wheels.

Tore off my undershroud coming back from the casino. Modified it (jerry-rigged) to work for now. Ordered a 2nd quality zspeed from the website at a reduced price. Still unhappy with the price. Lol. But my car is low and i cant risk another plastic one possibly damaging more undercarriage. Got lucky this time.

Today I installed nismo s tune exhaust from hfc back, installed whiteline diff bushings, adjusted the parking brake and just finishing washing it. She needs a lot more work but I only got it a month ago yesterday.
