Bought one last thing before I decided to put all mods on hold until spring. I got new exhaust tips. Got some ovals for the srt bumper I have, so when I do lower it. There will be no scraping when I pull in and out from my driveway. I figured that was the most cost effective and easiest next to redoing the front of my driveway.

Here is the engine bay as it sits for now. Still have some cleaning up to do and also get a better battery wrap.

Into painting the srt bumper. And now there is a mass amount of overspray. Looks like some of the overspray is black along with the clear coat. So it looks like I may have to sand into the last coat of black and get the overspray out.

Ooo something seriously attacked that battery blankie. Here's some part numbers for them:
2004: 5033228AB
MSRP: 8.90
2005: 5082105AA
MSRP: $9.25
My 04 blankie looks just like your 03 one in my SXT.

Anytime! Something munched on my SXT's so I wrote down the numbers the other week so I could order a new one.

I got the srt bumper on today. Paint is not so great, but right now I am not worried about it. Since the whole car will eventually end up painted anyways.
As you can see from the first pic... I have damage to the drivers side corner of the rear bumper reinforcement.
And here it is as it sits now, bumper looks flat black.

Looks good
Almost looks like a primered bumper from the flat look of the paint.
Tried buffing it to bring back some of the shine or is the clear completely fucked?
Oh and tuck those tips up more!

Clear is so messed up. But not too worried about. As for the tips, I have ovals I am going to have put on instead.

That's all I have for now. Since I am a stay at home dad, I don't get that much time for the neon right now. No excuses there, it is what it is.

Don't feel to bad, I haven't worked to much on the neon also. I mainly got it back to stock and been doing some stuff here or there.

Cool... next plans are to save up for KSport coilovers and maybe drop it a little. I can't drop it too much because of the drainage ditch at the end of my driveway that I can't do anthing about. I usually have to pull in at an angle. So pretty much the coilovers will be used for better suspension and to level the car.

Cool, I have to do the same thing. I think an 1.5 drop would be good were I live.

Looks like I will end up getting the srt-4 side skirts from Kaminari.
Now to save for them.

Would it be possible to buy one from you? Or do you have a website where I can order one?

I found the website. I'm just curious how much of the aluminum is covered once you put the "glass" back on.

I was out on a grocery run so I decided to get a quick pic with my cell. This is after I installed the srt wing. And yes, I know she still needs to be dropped a little. Either that or a little bit more meat on the tires.
