supz all,
i was just looking @ import tuner magazine, and i saw all those sick carz, skylines, silvia S15s and stuff, and i looked @ my own mx3,,, I decided to do something new,,,
Since our stock tails look kinda ugly and our altezzas have an absolute *** look to them, i decided to sacrifice the single altezza tail i have and try to play around with the silver part, first i am going to cook it in the oven, and take it apart, then i am gonna paint the silver part black and see how it looks, then after i will clearcoat it,,,,
if it turns out ok, i will try to get a hold of a way to carbon fiber it,,,,
crazy ideas eh,, i am sure it hasnt been done b4,,,
I will update you guys with pictures tommorow as the project starts and i have 3 days till the end of reading week,,,,<p>lataz,,,<p>PS: i need inputs on how to get the CF look to it, is there like a fabric that i can get a hold of and stick it on the silver part to cover it,,,

there is CF vinyl stuff, like a sticker, comes in a roll.. my friend got it at wal mart lol

yea that's what i was gonna say. get the adhesive type, not the film.. that way you can pull it off if you have to modify it a bit more to make it fit.<p>ps: you dont have to clearcoat the black since it wont be exposed to any weather/damage.

Aight ppl,<p>the first stage is done, i painted and clear coated the first set,,,
And herez a picture for your viewing pleasures,, <p>:D <p>Also, check out www.sikbluemx3.com for complete pitures and details,,,,

Aight, since i am disasterously impatient, i installed it,,,, LMAO <p>enjoy,,,:shrug: <p>PS: I will patent this project, do not attempt to sell these,,,<p>[ February 21, 2003: Message edited by: kuruption1983 ]</p>

yo kaveh that looks damn good

what temp did you cook em in the oven for........<p>jason

you should explain to me exactly how you did it. like what temp you set the oven too, and how long. cause that looks so good.

Ummm, dont attempt this without experiencing it, or you will have melted headlight or tailights,,, <p>300 degrees for 4 minutes maximum,,,

Looks mean man, oh by the way, everyone of my friends that happens to see me looking at this board and see's your car in your signature thinks your car looks good.

wow 300... 250 degrees at 2 minutes is enough for the headlights...and the headlights have a LOT of silicone.<p>well they look good.. i dun think you should put any cf it looks sexy like that already. you should try redding out those

That looks really really good! I like the black, skip the carbon fiber! <p>I wonder what it would look like white....

i think that looks amazing bro, leave it the way it is

wow Kaveh thats looks pretty damn good bro... almost makes me wanna go get one of those sets from ebay and fix em up... hmm... nah I'll wait till after the engine is in lol. good job man, lates

Could I pay you to do mine?
