Already installed the armest..

Like Tam posted.. Been doing some major work on my bros 1gn.. Need to get it up and running here soon..

And yes I post on facebook... Mainly cuz my phone lets me send pics straight to it besides uploading to photobucket and then here.. I only use it to post projects and important stuff to friends and family that I don't talk to on day to day.. :P

Here's a crap load of work that was done to the 1gn... I need to make another thread for it sometime later..

Here's the list of what we did some far...
-New fenders
-New Fog Light Front Bumper
-New Rear Bumper
-Power Bulge Hood
-Trunk lid with surfboard
-Added Power Windows/Locks
-Repaint stock panels, carpet, etc
-Sxt Seats (picking the fronts up this weekend)
-Wired in glove box light, lit sunvisors, autodim/maplights rearview mirror.
-2gn center console and e-brake swap
-Aftermarket Steering Wheel (awaiting Hub)

And a lot more to add..
This weekend we'll be doing a DIY Hood Dampers for his, my mom's 01, and Kristin Compass.. Along with some fiberglassing jobs to my beast..

Woring on a Water/Alcohol Injection kit, Still waiting on parts to come in for the Battery Relocation Mod, working on Sub Enclosure and Door pods that I wanna have done for the Modern Performance Meet..

I'll post pics of the beast this weekend..

Grabbed these to replace the mr7 on the 01..
Image

Bought this so the beast can catch a break finally..

Awaiting Lightened Flywheel to install..

As far as paint goes, I'm working on it.. I gotta ask my homie Matt when can I do it but I know for sure we have to get the shop cleaned up badly before anything happens... So patience people, patience.. I'm not in no rush... So I'm gonna start ignoring any comments regarding paint.. Sorry :thumbup:

And "to put my business out there"...
I'm expecting a lil creature soon..
