Thanxs bro and it really does.. We just left from the movie theatre and I was like man, that does look very nice..

I need to adjust the r/t muffler tips.. Now that its lowered it looks like the tips are at an angle..
I'm also thinking bout spraying the muffler black so its not an eye soar..

Alrightly... Got get back to modding this one as well.. :lol:

Got fed up of not being able to use my Hella horns when jackass on the street so I decided to swap wheels...
Image
Image
Image

Just a stock 04 Wheel... Didn't wanna look for the SRT leather will but probably will later on.. Needs to be cleaned but you get the picture..
The Aftermarket Wheel will be for shows..

Anyone know where I can find a Viper Steering Badge for the 04 wheel???

god I fuggin love this car, it may be rattle canned and everything but I think it is by far the most innovative and badass car on the forums, when I start working on my car again this winter i will be stealing a few of your ideas. the only thing I would like to see is it a little lower, just tucking a little tire and it would be perfect



here is a really crappy MS paint chop of it a little lower, looks so sexay, but of course its your car so....

Zack: I was looking but I think he's done for good this time..
There's a ebay seller that makes them as well but I can't seem to get in touch with him...

TJ: :rofl: thanxs bro.. Appreciate it.. And by all means use whatever you can.. Most folks here hate the fact other neon owners use they're ideas but I don't mind...
Thats why I post pics of ever step to help you guys out as much as possible.. :rockon:

On the lowering, its coming.. I'm running the 1gn ACR/RT Springs on SRT Struts but next year I plan on coilovers..
Using the SRT struts lifts it bout a 1/2".. I'm parked right next to the purple car and I notice the difference.. I definitely wanna get as low as I can to utilize my upcoming aero parts..

All thats left is to glue in the inserts, put the speakers in, and wire them up..

Modern Performace is having a meet on November 5th and I wanna finish up some of my major projects to show the locals..
I have plenty of time but want to possibly finish all my open projects and then some..

Lets see what I can get done before then..

Robs: :rofl:

Fixed some sutff today..
Fixed and moved my TT, cluster leds, wired up the compass/temp/autodim mirror, did some of the boost controller install (no pics), and finally changed my in-cabin filter..

I'll finish up tomorrow on the boost controller install after I play with the PT Brake Swap on the Purple Nurple.. :lol:

Boost controller pics are now up.. It was done sunday afternoon but forgot to take some shots..
Image
Image
Love the location.. I moved the Greddy TT to the top where the srt pods are and located the Hallman In-Cabin Boost Controller Knob where the Greddy use to be..

And today, I finally finished wiring the component setup's in the door pods and installed them in the car..

At 1st I was thinking that the speaker carpet wouldn't look so good on the BUX panels but man... When I put them in the car, its fucking perfect..
Love the look and the sound is awesome..
I think the next thing for these is to get a small amp to push them to get some better sounds..

Wanted to use the cloth on it but I this have to be strong and hard so that they don't move around when done..

Not rubbing off but sanded off... I had tenzo door sills and when I took them off the sticky tape crap wouldn't come off so I grabbed some sand paper and sanded it off...
