xbrandonx, speed127, Tam: Thanxs guys.. Going finish up the rears this weekend and take some shots..

Tj: :lol:.. I'm seriously considering it too.. I like the look way too much but the gf doesn't like it.. I looked into the paint and all to do it too.. If I don't paint it matte black, it'll definitely be Semi gloss..

Uriahrr: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Thanxs bro.. Really appreciate it.. :thumbup:

I don't know. I like it, but now it makes the pinstripe along the doors seem out of place. Since the pinstripe brings attention to the sharpness of the lower body, while the insert brings a more flowing look. They kind of negate each other.

So far:
Battery - Bought..
Brackets - Bought..
Battery Terminals - Ordered..
Cable - Gonna buy it from Lowes.. (2ga)
Distributor Blocks - Deciding..
Kill Switch - Ordered..

Drivers side rear add-on is done.. Passenger side still needs some loving.. Will have them finished tomorrow and hopefully install along with the new lip.
Gonna put back on my lil f1 mirrors in order to fix the spoon adapters.. One has a small crack ..

Myneonsayshi: I'll do a how to here my thread.. Its basically the same way but i'm adding like 3 things to it..

Slaw: :lol: I know.. Me and my girl have been under the weather lately.. That pretty much sums that up..


Well took care of all the 01 needs today.. Couldn't install the magnum header cuz the damn cat nuts were very very tight.. Gonna have to take it to the shop to get off..

Haven't finished up on the rear add-ons but the drivers side is done.. But I did have enough time today to install the new front lip..
Here's a teaser.. (Crappy phone pic)
