im going to incorperate the purple into the door incerts, seats, carpet, headliner and the stitching in the material. Im trying to get a sewing machine so i can do my own seats n stuff. :thumb:


that would look dope :thumb: and having a sewing machine would give you so many more things to do yourself, could mak a crown royal shift boot. the purple would go well

Haha yea I still have it. I was gonna do it after I was finished shaving the bay. After I got cut off and hit some fucker on the road and I had to fix it. So the night befor i moved to my new place I had fixed the sedan. New carbon fiber hood, headlights, corners, right fender, new used bumper and a mug en lip. So I moved and that same night it was stollen. So it never got used. I'm actually sur ching for the parts to get it finished and it's going in my hatch. I also have the disk swap to. But that's for sure going in this weekend. Just got the new seal kits for em and pressed in new bushings. Gonna have the rotors re - surfaced and they will be set. I'm kinda glad I have stuff I never got to put on the sedan. Makes this build go a Lil faster.

#348234 Well I finally installed the rear teggy brakes. Had them for like 5 years. put new trailing arm bushings in last year and cleaned them up with fresh paint. Must say it rides much better and brakes good to. Just need the prop valve. Also need new rotors cause the ones on were rusted bad and started to make pits. I cleaned them up as best as i could. Hope I can get new ones today. Also installed amber front corners, and a c-pillar bar. fixed my rear swaybar and add fresh full synthetic oil with new filter. :thumb:
