Haha thanks, I have no intentions of stancing it. Only way I would lower it would be with bags and even then I'd ride high, park low.


So I finally removed the mystery silver tape... There was a big ass scratch or something going across about half of the length of the bumper. Sanded it down and stuff primed it, put a layer of pearl white paint on it, and some weird stuff happened. Think we're just going to have to keep sanding it down and adding layers until it fixes itself. Any suggestions..? Thanks.

If you don't have some excessive camber going on, they don't look terrible. I just don't really want to go that route. I'd rather not tear through tires as well. The dream haha:

I'm currently on the search for a 97+ front bumper cover. If anyone just happens to know someone getting rid of one lmk. haha

His whole build thread. Pretty amazing.

If I can't find a bumper, I'll probably move on look as I go. The mufflers have a ton of overspray on them and are quite visible from behind. Going to jack it and paint those. Should look a lot better.

love the interior lights. I had some in my Pontiac hooked up to the subs so the lights would flash with the sub. This worked really good because I just used the amp as a power source instead of the battery.

Nice man, yeah I like them. They're cool when I drive at night or early morning. These have a sound setting, but are ran though a mic on the control box. Not the best, but it works haha.

Bumper Update:

Alright so it's finally done. We might add another layer of the Pearl spray but it's basically complete. We covered up the 4 license plate holes since you don't need them here in Florida, had to add a couple layers over the scratch as well in order to keep the paint from chipping. Here's just a bunch of pictures throughout the progress. I don't remember which one are already on here but I don't feel like looking. Oh well:

Pearl is slightly too light right now so may add another coat eventually.



I don't remember if I posted but I fixed the antenna mast using the broken one.... That lasted two days... The cable slipped olut again so I ordered another one yesterday. Hopefully that works out.

Head Unit Update:

Well the head unit is finally in. Here are the before and after pictures. Also a picture of the MHL mode it had. Pretty cool. The face plate bracket and the OEM thermostat have almost exact matching black. Not sure sure if you can tell by the pictures. Looks really clean.

Thanks man, it's coming out pretty well right now. I'm still looking for 97+ front and sides however. But for the right price. Touching up the mufflers tomorrow, antenna will be here friday or monday, and I need to remove this old tint so I can get it retinted. Current tint is faded purple.
