I wish my paint was clean as yours. And I wish mine was a blue plate, I have the original blue plate but it's all rusted and cut. 

It's not bad but I have a few dings here and there, not bad but I guess it's pretty good compared to some supposed og paint cars, your rims and tires really set it off for me man. these 17s are cool and all but I can't achieve the low I want running them. I was set on 16s after this set but I think I may go 15s with the same tire, I really like how it turned out whiting the letters.  anyways keep up the progress man i'm really enjoying this thread

Thanks, I saw the other 510 in your thread with the Panasports. That one looks clean too.

It's been repainted, thats a customer car that will be for sale soon. It's running an na sr and It's extremely loud, it needs a silencer

Should have went KA! Haha, joking. I like both swaps but like the KA's a bit more, but I don't mind N/A/ SR's. 

My friend (521 guy) brought me an old school lip, the Bomi lip. My dad had one on his 510, and now I've got one! Except both are messed up so he's going to try the fix the one my friend brought.

My friend's, or mine now, has barely any damage compared to my dad's.

And going to try to fit my Mazda mirrors my friend (Z guy) brought me.

That thing hauls ass for it being na, I need to get my head rebuilt but I'm waiting until next week to put it in the shop. Shouldn't be too hard to fix your lip unless its completely trashed. What kind of Mazda mirrors you got for it?

Very alike to this. I'm going to post a photo of the lip and mirrors soon.

First to start off the day was to trim the lip my friend gave us.

sFpwEQ1.jpgDecided to not go with the lip, it was not bolted on either. It's on my dad's 510 now.

And then mirrors.

The passenger mirror is as clean and clear as the driver's, probably just angle. 

This differential came with the 510. What type is it? My friend said it's a Subaru LSD. Is he correct?

Rear speaker deck was remade in carbon fiber. So were the rear passenger door panels, except one more needs some retouching.

Maybe a Buddha shift knob in the near future..?

I'm not feelin that lip, I think the bre spook air dam would look better. Mirrors look good and the rear speaker deck is a nice touch did you make it yourself? I was just going to put speakers without a deck but I kinda want a carbon fiber one now.

Yeah, I didn't like the lip either. My dad is doing all the carbon fiber interior. A couple pages before, I posted a photo of like three carbon fiber sheets. And I want this lip.

The other lip looks better like this, how they originally are. 1lvMSOnh.jpg

Right on, how's the new rim and tires ride?

Only have rolled it so far. But the tires are brand new, it sure does feel easier to push though. 

Can't wait to polish the lips and faint the face gold.

I just wish I had the caps!!! I don't know who to ask for caps. I might message Hayashi about that.

Wiring, alternator, radiator.

Possibly more I just can't remember.

Or if you really mean my cat, I just have to make eye contact with him and he runs away.

Planning to have it repainted white and silver. White all around, silver BRE stripe with the tail light and license plate area silver. Also pillar vents being silver.

When the official paint job comes, I'm going with original orange.
