All cleaned up, sporting new mods

kc2005ptgt · Post by **kc2005ptgt** » Sat May 19, 2007 3:33 pm

Welp, I got the plates, the side skirts, and -- well, nothing else, but I took some cool shots at the lake the other day, so I wanted to share it with you all.

Yes, I really only take pics of the drivers side because of the stupid ding on the passenger side which is starting to rust out

But, that is another

mod

for another day. Enjoy!

One shot in same place from almost exactly one year ago:

One month later:

Yesterday's shots:

And, super-duper cleaned up exhaust tips... MAN were they nasty - just needed a little M.A.A.S. metal cleaner, and they came out perfecto (for 5 years of never being cleaned

)

And an action shot on the way home.

And my cockpit.

Good Lord! 68 MPH and 3200 rpms?

I hit 3000 rpm's at 80 mph. Must be nice to have that extra gearing.

Car looks sooo good. Love the skirts man, really gives the car a more aggressive stance. Keep up the modding!

When do you plan on doing MegaSquirt?

Looking real good, man!

I like the skirts on there....looks good!!! I also love the bronze wheels, something different although the black looked very nice as well.

i retract my previous statement about acr's shouldn't have skirts....your's looks hot....i still think a mid wing would look better than a srt wing...

car looks awesome though

Car looks the best I've ever seen it man!

You'll have to help me put my skirts on since you might have some tricks from experience now.

I never asked you before...what's the % on that tint? I'm going to tint my windows this summer, and I want them that dark....but I don't want to get ticket's either. Have you ever gotten pulled over for the tint?

Car looks good, loving the skirts. How much did it run ya to get em painted? I might have to get a pair....

Thanks for all the comments guys (and gal

)! I really love the look now, and the plate was all for me - even if no one else will understand it (I am slowly finding that out

)

I love the SRT spoiler, it gievs the car a more agressive look than the low rt spoiler.

I am getting MS as soon as I can afford it - I think I am getting rid of the narrow band and replacing it with a wide band and an oil pressure gauge (stupid oil light comes on in hard corners

) and when I do that, I will buy MS.

As for the skirts, Dave I would love to help ya, just send a pm and let me know when you want to.

Takes a whole hour to do

Joseph, ask Dave, he can give ya a quote

Car is looking good, but why no fog lights?

ACR's didn't come with fog-lights.

gilly02le · Post by **gilly02le** » Mon May 21, 2007 11:26 am

i dont believe acr neons came with fogs... since they are basically a no-options, so much lighter R/T.

They Car is looking awesome man... only thing i would look into now is some new rims, but otherwise looking super clean..

kc2005ptgt · Post by **kc2005ptgt** » Mon May 21, 2007 4:29 pm

Oh yeah, and Dave, percent tint is 20% fornt doors, 5% front windshield eyebrow and 5% in the rears.

As for wheels, only ones I will ever put on are the Rota Slipstreams, in 15x7 possibly gunmetal. I personally LOVE my rims, and I do not want bigger.

Yes, ACR's did not come with fog lights, but the wiring is all there, and I would need a new MFS.

You got it easy though, yours are already painted. I got to go get mine painted and spend more money. Man I gotta pay some stuff off....and probably sell some stuff

Hotness... but the fog delete plates would help clean it up alot.

I like the plate

Midnight_Rider · Post by **Midnight_Rider** » Sun May 27, 2007 7:15 pm

'02 front facias are the best of the '00-'05's (other than SRTS, in my opinion). I need to try cleaning up my exhaust tips like you did (mine are pretty cruddy). The plate is great... everything is

.

5th gear sucks, btw, its way to short.

The skirts pull the car together so well.
Looks awesome.
Not a huge fan of the wheels though.
