I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

lol i wasnt worried about that part at all. if i want i can take some acetone and clean it all off but none of it will be seen when installed so its :beer:

thanks though i was stoked on how they came out too. damn near perfect. now i just need to figure out why i cant get my keyless to work any more. its either my radio is not picking up the signal or the ignition isnt working properly allowing me to program the radio. im really annoyed about it atm.

thats the reason im not happy with the clear. as far as im concerned the part thats being shown should be perfect but if its not being seen then i have no problem with it.

for instance... i didnt paint everything under the handles... i couldnt take them apart without breaking them so i could get under and sand all that so i said, "oh well." and didnt paint it.

those shots are awesome.
a nice photoshop of the first on with some motion blur would be pretty bad ass. would need to shop someone into the car driving though.

road looks fun.
