- Thu Mar 17, 2011 4:05 am #244400 Thanks dude, yeah he riced it out. I pulled out so many LED's from the interior it was sad lol

Any little crevasse had an LED in it. I like having lights under the dash to light the floor but not LED's scattered everywhere lol

Once I get the tires, and my suspension I will get some awesome quality shots for yas!

- Sat Mar 19, 2011 2:42 am #244813 Picking up my EK center console tomorrow, and retrofitting it into my car.

I am re wrapping the armrest, and the door inserts tomorrow as well. Painting my new stock mirrors as well. Should be a productive day!

I will post pictures of what I get done tomorrow!

- Sun Mar 20, 2011 3:39 am #244952 Just a test fit into my hatch to see what I have to cut and so on. It will do until I can track down an optional audio console.

Going to rebuild my distributor tomorrow hopefully, torque up my harmonic balancer bolt and re wrap my door inserts and arm rest in gay looking material.

- Sun Mar 20, 2011 4:06 am #244955 im super glad to see this unriced it is a nice car!

- Sun Mar 20, 2011 1:15 pm #245006 Haha thanks man, it looks 100% better than it did.

- Sun Mar 20, 2011 2:54 pm #245018 Going to prep my mirrors for paint, mask off the mirror it's self and paint them. Going to clear them too so they don't chip! Will post photos of the process and end result.

- Sun Mar 20, 2011 6:16 pm #245054 Picked up some Duplicolor gloss black automotive paint yesterday, and the clear to go with it...



Managed to paint my stock EG mirrors today. One was black, and one was faded red. I gave them a little scuffing with some fine sand paper, and then applied a coat or two of primer.



Once the primer was dry, I began my first coats of paint.



Then I cleared the living hell out of them! Here is a shot of both mirrors after clear! Check out the smooth shine I managed to get with just spray bombs!








I think they turned out amazing for painting these in my basement, with just a spray can of primer, black paint, and glossy clear coat! I took my time, and it paid off. I am very impressed..
What do you guys think?

- Sun Mar 20, 2011 11:38 pm #245091 I ripped apart my doors panels, and got rid of the dirty ass old fabric that was on there from the factory. I am a huge camoflauge fan, so I thought this fabric was suitable for me. Also did the arm rest as well. In the photos the inserts are just freely sitting in the door pannels.
What do you guys think of this??

- Mon Mar 21, 2011 1:29 am #245109 wow, i neer though i would bother with interior stuff but this makes me rethink, looks great!!

- Mon Mar 21, 2011 1:41 am #245111 Give it a shot man, It really brings some life back to your interior. I am in love with this camo I did. It may not be the "coolest" looking camo out there... but it's all I could find... Im more than happy with it!

Thanks man.
