Bugfreak's Pookie (black 1.8T- slightly modded)

[bugfreak]

okay... my car doesn't look that bad any more unless you get close enough to see all the chips and scratches, so i guess it's time to finally post some pics. Here's Pookie:







I just got the GIAC program put on it so I'm pretty happy with my car for the time being. Also had a lightened flywheel put in when it was time to change the old clutch. Oh, and the hubby works for a company that fixes rims so Pookie's got some BBS rims and new tires. i'm done messing with Pookie for a while now except for regular maintaince issues.

Pookie's looking good - are we going to see him again at TNBRU April 1st?

[bugfreak]

thank you antoine for the nice comment.


you guys know what? i haven't update this in a while. i didn't want to hurt anybody's feelings cause an acquaintance did the chipping on the Pookie. i got the car dynoed and i'm only gettint 16 more hp out of the chip and it's also running too rich.

nathan had to contact GIAC directly cause they couldn't help us at the place where i got the chip done. we've been corresponding with GIAC. will update.

Wow! I sure do LOVE those Black NBs

Love the rims! They look HOT!!

[bugfreak]

thank you guys for the compliments! well, i got my blue emblem in today, and after fighting with it for WAAAAAY longer than it should have taken, i finally got it on. the chrome on the original was peeling, so i had to get a new one anyway. i cleaned up pookie, nathan cleaned up the celica and we took some pictures.

You must have some updated pics! Lets see them!

[JuggBug]

Yeah, where are they?!!!

Psstt...you're also gonna have to change your thread title.....Pookie's more than 'slightly' modded now!

[bugfreak]

you guys are right.. i've been slacking. thanks for prodding me. these are all i've got for right now. i just won this awesome $270 camera for $127 on e-bay but it takes a special USB cord. til i can get my camera to have sex with the computer or use the camera at work, here is my not black anymore pookie-dookie bug! you guys are the greatest. my internet's been sucking, too. time warner cable SUCKS ASS!!!!





i'm gonna try to do the rear emblem tonight...maybe. wish me luck

hmmm... not sure. some kind of sapphire metallic something-er-other

still haven't gotten around to attempting the emblem. i'm scared. i can barely plug the cable into the tv.

Hello, all! Pookie got yet another makeover! i did the wheels in glossy black and bought some black headlingts. next will probably be tailights and then suspension. (not for a while though cause pookie's taken more than his fair share of money this year) i REALLY need to stop slacking and install my rear blue emblem and change my brakelight bulb, too.

hey... how the heck can i change the title of this thread? my stupid car is not black any more

[Breez]

The spoiler is painted too??? Very neat idea... more pics please!!!!

[Beetlemania]

Totally hot pictures!

I think you have to contact a moderator to get the title change to be complete. Maybe Antoine could do it for you?

[GINA]

I'm diggin the new headlights and wheels, looks really good

[bugfreak]

thank you! you guys are all kind.

guess what?

BAM!


i finally got around to doing the rear emblem (with the help of my hot little hubbie and antoine's how-to guide)

oh, and look at these! there's a midget "driving" my car.

[iScott]

You go, little baby! Drive that thang!
Car looks great, Theresa!

The last picture you posted of her was almost exactly 1 year ago (minus a few weeks) and she's already doubled in size. Props for being able to keep your car so clean with a little one, too.

[JenBug]

Love it!

How much did it cost for the repaint?
