hi I do!

You can't say he can't post here just because it's a Riviera forum. He's not breaking rules and it's very interesting to watch a car build like this.

Come on guys, I'd like to see a lot more pictures of Corey's rust.... lmfao


I'm not laughing at the rust itself, but that you felt the need to post more than 2 or maybe 3 shots of it...

look at the name of this thread, If your not interested in gtx build then dont look!
I like looking at other peoples mods and body work. I get alot of ideas from you guys. so having a different car in its own thread is ok with me.

Bumper is just about half way done. today it was just to damn hot to be sanding this by hand.for those wondering why i don't use a 6" DA. because it wont make it flat. a DA goes in a oval pattern. so i have to go by hand, 80 grit, then 120, then 180, then 220, then 400. its so much fun :? Also i wont be able to use a SD lip like a planed, as the car will be too low. and it would just get ripped off with the 315 potholes. but i want slammed so i guess i will need to suffer, by saving 300 bucks and 4 hours of molding. frown

Its not done yet, i know.

I still need to trim some of my extra material off the lower part

Don't worry it will be filled in with a massive intercooler. which will be here next week some time. so i can see how much i need to mod the bumper even more

it'll be sad when you scrape the nose pulling into some high parking lot and bust up the bottom of that bumper you put so much time into. Or worse you might bang up the IC exchanger. Looks good now though! Keep at it!
