So after enjoying my car for a few weeks..I've already gotten the itch to get some more done to the car!
However, now I'm working on getting all the cosmetics/functionality/comfort all 100% done on the car. Last night I made a to-do list on my droid...came up with 27 small projects/things I want to get done on my car.
I figured I'll go ahead and show you the very first thing I already did.
Installed an 03 center console with a 99 shift boot/bezel!
I'm already in love with it! TWO cup holders?!? I must be moving up in this world!:lol: As well it replaces my old worn out/cracking shifter boot and now I have a boot for the e-brake as well. However I'm not stopping there with this, I'm taking out the 'traction control' button and putting in my own button for my fog lights there. The other cool thing is now I have an electrical outlet INSIDE of the center console compartment, out of plain view. Also I have to remove the whole thing again to prep and dye the console to black to match the rest of my interior perfectly. I'm currently stripping a v6 to the frame and then swapping over terminator EVERYTHING in the car[computer, harnesses,motor,trans,IRS,brakes,fuel system,hydroboost,etc], so the guy just gave it to me.
These next few days I'm going to put in an order for some small LED bulbs to replace all the incandescent bulbs in my autometer gauges with blue LEDs to match my wideband perfectly and for better lightning..because they SUCK! I feel like I just have a small candle lit behind each of my gauges, makes the interior look old/worn. Also replacing my license plate lights with LEDs as well to freshen it up back there.
Also removing and painting my front bumper and hood brackets/fasteners as well since they look absolutely terrible. BEFORE pictures.
Here you can see that they have surface rust
Here is my MANGLED front bumper [BTW, 1500rwhp parked]
Anyways..I'm not going to spoil any more on what I plan on doing..like I said, I have a list of 27 little projects to do on the car!
This is a thread I plan on updating daily when I get the chance..should be able to knock out a lot of these really quickly, so be sure to check back for more pictures, projects, and ideas!
Oh..and here is a picture I took the other day while I was eating at Wendy's, I couldn't help but to feel ridiculous, lol. I've now had THREE people assume that those are nitrous bottles hanging back there. :kaboom: and one person think it was a parachute. :smmon:
She turns 16 in a week, so she is getting all sorts of spoiled for her sweet 16!
