Are you going to leave it flat black? If so, did you clear coat over it?

ia m planning on keeping it primer black, and no i didnt put a clear coat on it...and dont plan to. LOL Im planning on building it up and learning on it and when i feel comfortable enough in it ill paint it...i doubt even then LOL ive been drifting for a year or so and really havnt had much in the way of really bad body damage...it would have been really bad it if was painted...

heres some of the daylight pix...some old...sadly the one of it in the parking lot is it with a horrid photochop i did to see what it would look like with those wheels.

i love the matte black! by the way nice cage/dumping of the interior! im planning on getting a 240 soon myself and i was thinking about doing the matte black look also. you got good outlooks on not painting it till you feel more comfortable. besides body work, painting is mad expensive. nice ride holmes!

making a comeback??? as far as ive read 50%* of the people on this forum have 240s, 30%* have other cars, and 20%* are under age and dont drive anything.

* completley made up statistics, but prove my point in a semi-effective way :P

anywho the car looks good, but is that one of those monkey bar/ fake rollcage things?

Ok...I am aware of you statistical data, but we haven't really seen those "50%" lately...If you want to to contradict me, you can show me some threads proving your point...Otherwise, I proven "my" point. Back at you...Not going to reply on this anymore...Too off topic, 'don't wanna jack this guy's thread.

LOL LOL yeah when i put the cusco on it made a huuuuge difference i had to re learn my car because of how much stiffer the rear end is now. it threw out so much faster my counter steering had to be 2times faster to keep from looping it ( well at lower speeds ) next is the bushings after my ca goes in...should be interesting.
