Hello,
Jamie Shaw here. Here's a few pictures of my 99 Mercury Cougar. I built this 100% by myself with no experience in body work or paint. I run a company called Shaw Vision Auto. I will update this page as I go. Thank you and see you soon, later.
The body kit is actually a bunch of things. It's not a click on this site and buy this kit type of setup. It has pieces from a z3 BMW, a Celica, a Tiburon, a Eclipse, ALOT of custom made stuff. Again, I say, this is strictly my project car. It will never be done as it will always have something under construction. I did this car in my garage without any help. I am in NO way saying I am a professional but doing it yourself is possible. I will update this puppy with more pictures of the process, etc.

Jamie here. Cardomain I have some bad news. The 99 Cougar had to stay behind. I recently had to move to Arkansas due to military reasons but only had room for one on the shipping truck. I figured since the 97 Chrysler Sebring is a new stepping stone for me, I took her instead. I will however have the 99 Cougar shipped here eventually. These pictures will be the last you guys/gals see from him for awhile till I get him back and rebuild him. Cardomain, you have been good to her but as of now, he's fighting it out in Montana. As always, if you have ANY questions or concerns, feel free. Later.

What's up Cardomain and tuners alike. I was bored and remembered I had an old Photobucket account that I had. Well, I signed into it and found older pictures of my DIY 99 Cougar! Here they are. I will try to put them in some kind of order, something like oldest at the bottom/new on the top kind of thing. Well, just updating with the little pictures I have of her left. I will start drawing a redesign of him shortly. I can not wait till I can go back to Montana and get my what started it all project Cougar. As always, if you have ANY questions or concerns, feel free. Later.

What up Cardomain tuners. Jamie here. Was bored today so I animated a final video for my 99 Cougar. I will miss this car. I had to leave him behind in Montana due to military things. I will go back and bring him home but as of now, I can not. When I do get him back, he will be redone with some INSANELY hot upgrades. Well, until then adios (sp?) Cardomain tuners.

Hey Cardomain, while going through boxes I found and OLD sd card full of pictures of the Sebring and Cougar together! I just received the Sebring (probably 2 weeks prior to the pictures). I am still on the hunt for pictures but it may take awhile because I have ALOT of boxes people! Anyway, enjoy the flashback, later.... I MISS my Cougar. There aren't any cars that stand out down here.

The arrow is to show the garage it was built and painted in. That thing was TINY!
This was the Cougar in primer. After spraying it, I sat it out in the sun to dry.
Here she is being built by a no knowledge (at the time) having new tuner.
The turbo and lambo doors. I will see if I can find pictures of the install.
The inspiration for my headlight design. The Fortune Supra.
