History of my tib, its a 2003 GT v6 6speed the ULTRA SPORT PACKAGE 2 option... it was a gift from my father..bought brand new in march of 02 for $19,594 in Hyundai of El Paso..(tib was made in jan 25 02) one of the first tibs in production..i love my car and really enjoy driving it...Well time passed by and i had a urge to put a kit on my car and chose Razzi..What a mistake lol..it didn't last long when i decided i wanted a clean stock look again and decided to do the fl front (2005-06) and fl2 rear(2008-09).

The creativity/history of my user name PRtibby in case your wondering ... ''PR'' stands for Puertorican and '' tibby'' for tiburon..i started thinking of a name for my user name in NT and the first one that poped up in my head was PRtibby, i liked it and it stuck and now i named my tib PRtibby lol

i got it off ebay. ...its oem he even gave me the recipt from the hyundai dealer with 1 year waranty
he has 2 different ones. ....one that fits with the sub and the other one that doesnt use the sub

what paint did you use for the engine plastics man those look soooooo clean awesome job :)
thanks.....i bought the paint in pepboys i dont remember the name but the paint is gloss black auto paint and has an old car in the front of the can
:bigsmirk4

nice car!
thanks man!




Okay well nothing new just that my Antenna base (black plastic piece) cracked ..I have noticed this as a common Issue with the tiburons i have seen in Puerto Rico they start to crack until they break and fall off eventually..So i went to see if hyundai would sell me just that by itself but turns out they wouldnt so i had to buy the whole antenna Assembly for $25 dollars ...When i went to take off my Ark short Antenna it was stuck on there and didnt want to come off so i had to break it off very carefully not to mess up or dent my baby but after a few hours i managed to pull it off and since i had no short antenna i had to order a cheap solution (ebay short antenna for $10 )until i have a few bucks to spare on an Ark antenna again....so here are before and after pictures

Cracked base

New plastic base

Pic of the Cheap ebay antenna until i can get an Ark one again( for the price of the cheap antenna you cant go wrong and it has decent reception)

he did 4 coats but on the center piece it was 5 since i accidently touched it when it was freshly painted lol

That shine on the paint is awesome!! the red is so bright!!! =] good job on it!
thanks. ..everything is the original stock paint except for the front and rear bumpers gills,spoiler, roof and gas cap
Not sure if it was answered or not, i skimmed over the posts and saw a compliment on the engine plastics, but didn't see anything towards what kind of paint your friend put on them, your friend just clear coat them or something?...ill see what brand of paint it is since ive gotten a few people ahos asked me the same and post it up.....yeah he clear coated them too.....overal i wasted like70 on paint and clear and the activator for the paint


And nvm, just noticed theres a second page lol.
lol

damnn dude, this tib looks extremely cleann! perfectT!
thanks man.,means alot......ever since i ditched the razzi. .ive had lots of complements..... the craziest thing ive even had a person who stoped me and offered to buy my car lol.
