Hi MT.net. Your mods change thread titles and I'm calling the Norse Copyright police

We're not really an appearance/style group here, but I must say, you're pretty darn good with that airbrush.
Incidentally, during deployments, the corrosion control boys come out with their rattlecans and spray all the fastener heads with different, mismatched flat grays. The other thing that happens is that ground crew walk all over the wings and top of the fuselage with boots covered in grease and hydraulic fluid, so you end up with lots of footprints.
The one thing you really need is a Bureau Number. An old F-4 would probably have a 15#### number. Were USMC F-4 squadrons VMF or VMFA? I know they are all VMFA now with Hornets.
I was in VFA-83 (Rampagers/Saratoga).

I like it. Except the stance. That's just stupid, and the look is soooooo copycat of every other stanced stupid miata on this planet. You have a good unique thing going for the looks of it. But the stance kills it.
Now swap in an LS powered V8, with a turbo and make it act as cool as it looks.

I'm ashamed that I think he did a pretty good job. the exhaust is pretty gross to me but I kind of like the rest. I feel dirty.
With that said. I'd never ever, ever, ever, ever, own or drive that. If I did it would need a turbo charged LS w/ 1200hp to make up for it's jdm tightness. I think i'd still be ashamed to drive it though. I'm also not 20 anymore and Wake up at 5am every morning and go to bed by 11 at the latest. M-F workin da grind babeh!
