    He everybody,

    My name is Rens, am from The Netherlands an I finally finished my del sol so I just wanted to show you all my little project :baby:

    Here is how I bought my sol:

    [​IMG]

    Here in Holland we have a big styling scene with lots of body modifications so I wanted a headlight conversion to make the sol look "angry"

    [​IMG]
    Didn't work out of course so I stopt it..

    I'll keep you updated! :rocks:

    After 6 months of changing with a lot (and I mean a lot) of diffirent bumpers

    Just in time me and my friends finished building the car up.. And for the first time in 6 months she took me for a 100 km ride to the sponsor of the dutch version of team del sol so it could be on a "meeting" the next day..

    and back in my garage

    I know it looks like/(is going to look like) a Rare_eg rip off.. But I can't help it.. This was the colour I bought my car in, and am not going to change it because someone on the other side of the world has almost the same :googly: :roflmao:

    Regards

    DUDE RHD for the win! Nice work by the way, I cant believe you had that many random wires lol! Everything looks nice though, I like that u painted the drums and calipers black. I did the same thing with the trunk board too, I made a new one from my old one cause it was all busted. +1 rep for you ;)
