Detail, and some shots of the 01 wheels.

Post by glasswars » Sat Jul 26, 2008 7:02 pm

Getting the car ready for the meet tomorrow.. it's been a long time since I did such a nice detailing.

Meguiar's Scratch X
followed by
Meguiar's Cleaner Wax
followed by
Meguiar's Gold Class Synthetic Wax
followed by
Meguiar's Crystal Carnauba Wax

Unfortunately I don't have any final sealant..
Trim with Mother's Back To Black
Glass with Perfect Glass
Exhaust with Nevr Dull
Tires w/ local brand tire shine (works amazingly)
Detailed Engine Bay (Which I forgot to post pictures of >___< )
Vaccumed out interior, wiped down with Armor All Interior Wipes

I didn't even bother cleaning the wheels cause their in such bad shape... only put them on for the meet and come monday their back off until they get painted.

Looks great, but I think I like the '03 wheels a little better. Maybe once the '01s are painted I'll change my mind.

The new stance is hot too, fuck the haters. I actually think the front needs to come down a smidge now though, I prefer a raked look over the level look on our cars.

Looks good! I like these wheels better than the 03-04 RT wheels. I would only suggest taking the R/T emblem off the front...looks kinda tacky IMO.

Aside from the eyelids it looks very much like a luxury car, like a Lexus or something!

Very very very nice! What are the plans for those wheels? I like them more than the newer style RT wheels.

Alright. I think normally I'd like the 2000 front end swap, but not with those projectors. Or maybe not with the black projectors. But it's shiny, that counts for something, right?

Also, the lowering is very nice. And what the hell R/T badge is that? Charger?

1.) I still see scratches in that paint :lol: GET TO BUFFING!
2.) After seeing those rims... I kind of like the other stockers more believe it or not
3.) oh.my.god.what.the.fuck.bar.be.que
4.) Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please *DEEEEEEP BREATH* Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please change the color again like your old neon. When.if you do that, get your lip 100% fixed... and those gap on the eyelids still bother me.

But, i would have to say, you have the PERFECT combination of parts on that car right now. absolutely perfect. if the car was a little faster, (i.e. turbo, not a SRT swap) then it would be my #1 favorite neon of all time.

Thanks everyone! The R/T badge is from the side door and is only there until I can find a Chrysler Emblem. And yeah, maybe next year I will do the ASP turbo kit. An intercooler would look sick in that front bumper ;)

Also gonna post up some more pictures I took tonight... magazine quality status. Shits HOT FIRE!

ASP turbo would be perfect. It just seems like the SRT swap wouldn't fit your personality, or the way you mod the car... but the turbo kit would be just the right match

Yeah the swap isn't me. I like having a little 2.0. I think even 8 pounds of boost would make me happy.

Damn foo... Your neon is the shit with the silverstone's.... Can't wait to see them painted...

Gotta question for ya.... What are your plans for the tails?? Are you gonna just tint them out or go aftermarket??

Other than that, your neon is hands down show worthy :rockon:

I'm loving it.

The only suggestions I have are to go with some LED bulbs for your turn signals and rockblocker the fogs.
