steam is how i did my back window you cant use a razor like the other ones because of the rear defrost lines but steam and a dry cloth worked great for me and if you are retinting them make sure all of the old glue is off

Well guys, I havent been slacking. I got a shit ton of stuff done over the last couple of days and only have time to update some of it before my next appointment. Lets see here.
You guys remember this?
Would you have guessed that after sean worked his magic, it could look like this?
I unfortunately haven't gotten a chance to install it yet, as I have a spark plug tube leaking a little oil so, I wanna get all the seals together before I swap it over.
I got myself a ebay CAI
Sean powder coated my battery tray to match the valve cover so, I had him PC my CAI in wrinkle black while he was at it. Here is what they look like installed.
I also decided that the blown speakers were not match for my beloved RB4 so I gave them a nice little upgrade.
(old speaker on the left)
(old speaker)
(old speaker left new speaker right)
I complimented the new alpine rears with a set of pioneer 3 way 6.5s up front. It sounds freaking awesome all together.
Next I got all my lighting mods by caraudioholic in and wired to a switch in the center console.
(these two are led bars under the srt seats.)
(Switch that controls it all)
Blue defroster switch from him.
Blue LED switches.
I ordered a badass custom EL Hvac overlay from speedhut(WHICH SUCKS ASS AND I COULD NEVER GET IT TO WORK PROPERLY!!!)
So there is a small update there is a shit more but I gotta get ready for a meeting. Let me know what you guys thinks. Thanks.

thanks emoxihax and welcome to the party. for you and everybody else....more progress.
What the front end looked like when I got it.
notice the busticated ass fogs, and hazy ass headlights? decided to do this today
Then I did these
Working fogs for the motha effin win.
A couple of days ago I decided to go ahead and get my aluminum cluster bezel installed.
and then it installed with some better shots of my blue LED cluster.
Swapped my 02 taupe outer steering wheel for an extremely worn out slate one.......theres kind of a difference
And did I ever tell you guys I love my Rb4?
Back to stock hvac overlay
Maddog 52% STS, MP Billet weighted knob, and custom leather boot.
my "CUSTOM" battery strap bc I dont have the rear battery clamp lol
This is the big one here. had R34 throw this together for me. This is the final draft for body and paint. Hope you guys enjoy
viewtopic.php?t=61838
Finally two sisters side by side (My neon and Sean's neon)
Money is tight right now guys, but free time is abundant. As the cash comes in so will the updates. Keep posted guys and thanks for the opinions, advice, and feedback

Little update. Over the weekend I got the new valve cover on and the pcv system rerouted. I made a ghetto oil catch can out of an air compressor air/oil separator. it's actually catching a little bit of oil already
I will get new pics of it all installed and cleaned in the next day or two.
Thanks for all the input guys

Your doing it all wrong...this is suppose to take years, if not decades. LOL
I'm gonna have to check out those SRT4 seats. I am considering a Corbeau racing bucket, but could get a whole set of SRT4 seats for the same price as 1 Corbeau Forza wide

Jerome-LOL I tried procrastinating but, I got bored, what can I say? As far as the SRT seats are concerned, you were right, for bigger guys like us it can be a bit tight in the shoulders but, they hold you where you want to stay still in the corners.
Passt- Thanks brother, unfortunately as cool as that overlay WOULD have been, I tried two inverters and still couldn't get the thing to light correctly. not to mention the y F**ked up my order three times! it took 3 shipments before I actually got everything I ordered. The first package sent to me was a overlay for a ford fookus!!! I will never go back to speed hut
but, anyhow. I got a lot done over last weekend. lets see here,
New brake pads up front, (the old ones were getting a little scary....)
Seafoamed the girl, installed the new valve cover using felpro gaskets
and threw together a simple air/oil separator for a simple oil catch can. I also took the time to reroute my throttle and cruise control boden wires.
PICS
Next project on the list is to degrease and shine the engine bay for the first time of 2012. Then.......eventually,..........COILOVERS!
Thanks for all the input guys, and keep the comments coming!
