I am keeping this log in chronological order of when I did everything, and will simply keep adding on from here.
Here it is the night I brought it home. I had already stopped at the parts store and bought new wheel covers as I couldn't stand the ones on it when I bought it. 100% factory. I had to clean the dirty engine and put some tire shine on.
Pioneer DEH-2000MP CD/MP3 Player with two 10" subwoofers. Subwoofer box painted to match trunk carpeting and port inserts painted to match subwoofers and amplifier. Debadged. Prothane "street" torque strut mount inserts.
SRT-4 cat-back exhaust system and "new" used headlights that weren't cracked.
New wheel covers, just because I liked these better than the chrome ones.
Tinted taillights and third brake light, along with the grille insert painted flat black with trim paint to make it look new again instead of the faded gray it became over the years. LED license plate light and painted interior trim pieces.
All new Prothane suspension bushings (lower control arms, anti-sway bar, anti-sway bar end links and rear control arms), Moog lower ball joints and Moog outer tie-rod ends.
Powdercoated Snowflake wheels in gloss black with Federal Formoza FD-1 tires. Installed with black Gorilla spline drive lug nuts. Not pictured: Fuel Injector Rail Cover

**Currently working on engine ground upgrades**
2 gauge wire vs. the tiny factory braided lines.
03/16/2010 Update: Custom Engine Ground Upgrade has been done. Five grounds total upgraded with 2 gauge wire soldered into copper lugs and some heavy-duty, thick, weatherproof heatshrink to cover the connection. Also, the two 8" subwoofers came out and in their place a single 8" bandpass unit went in. Much louder and it takes up less than 1/2 the space in the trunk. It has nifty blue LEDs too that match the car, lol. Present from the GF for working on her truck.
