yes the other contour is on air bags. its an extremely nicely done car my buddy branden owns (he does air ride stuff for a livin')

its got a euro mondeo front bumper molded to it so i think he scores more euro points than me

but i love my rusty hood!

oh boy.

Now do the roof and decklid

Are you kidding me....

woops i put two up of the same pic. not what i was going for.






and no steve, i wouldnt go as far as doing irreplacable parts, but i have an extra trunk lid i might do for fun ;P

Why would you do that? What's the point? Lmao.


I'm kidding. That's the crap I got when I had the rust. U should sand it and remove the letters tho.

I love brandon's car tho...

..... i freehanded the letters, i love em . everyone has a rusty hood nowdays, but at least my hood says "clockwork" across it really huge


i think i made it too rough before rusting it so when i sprayed it with the vinegar/saltwater/peroxide it got kinda blotchy. i'm gonna keep it that way for a while and see how it will turn out naturally. i can always clean it up and try again

He get a Mach lip on the Mondeo front end now?

yeah. he test fitted my mach lip and decided he wanted it. i liked my mach lip but i want to mold this mirko onto it

I think I saw Brandon's contour at Tousley either yesterday or the day before when I was leaving work. It looked slammed........Although it was slammed more in the rear than in the front.......kinda looked a little Mexican style. Car looked sick though.

branden's car is on air. he drives it that way for some reason. it will slam level, but he's going to raise his strut towers in the front to get another inch out of the front. his car is super nice. its got a couple scratches here and there, but all in all, its a sick ride. however, his motor is stock. and i just can't handle that, lol!

the funnest thing about doin all this crap is that we're both kinda over contours... but doing things just to "bring on the hate" seem to get us going. so we're in the same boat there. however, i hate parking my car next to his. my paint is not the right color. it was resprayed at some point, and its just not as black as his, and there seems to be less clear on it. makes my car look like a pile!

Makes me want rust. Maybe in the spring after I have some go-fast's done.

I don't think he can go as high in the rear as he can in the front either... That might be part of the reason he drives it that way. And if he goes down much more in the front he'd be rubbing on the 19's

Could be the extra 130k miles yours has too

yes that has a huge effect too.

my interior is nicer than his tan and dash warp though

oh and i'm packin a tree' liter which is extra clean and he's all stock. his car moves out alright for a stocker though!

oh yeah, i get flamed for wanting to do it...
