lookin really good nate..... after lookin at the pic with ur shaved doors, i may need to think about doin that... [8D] ur engine bay looks good to, i hope i can get my indy intake to turn out that good did u do it by hand or did u use some kind of tool??? i was trying to do it by hand and i got frustrated, never seamed to make progress[:@]

that car sits about as nice as u can get it!!! looks real leval, and suprising u stuffed them 19s under it it looks great, and u will get the turbo i am sure of it.... and i am betting WAY before i get my four sparcos i need to get a sponcer or two[&:]

KEEP IT UP!!!!!!!

Thanks!!!! The shaved handles are nice, but they can be a pain, especally if your remotes are on teh fritz[:@] As for the intake being polished, all that I did was use a heave slovent to pull the grime off and used a palm sander with 80, 120, and 220 grit on it. I should have started with the plam sander first, but I though that I could go faster with a grinding wheel... DON'T DO IT... it left grooves all over the place that i can't fix. Just use the palm sander. Once that was done, I found a 3 stage polishing kit online.... (can't remember where, might have the reciept somewhere) and just started to polish. I used Glossy black engine paint on the parts I didn't polish and then used a clear coat engine paint after I finished polishing... This way I don't have to polish all the time

oh yeah, and something i did notice.....

Yeah the dash pad will go back in before a show..... Still needed to install my 2 SRT pods on it. Still need a few parts though... Soon I hope

Yeah I have one, I just put it on my windshield using window suction cups from a arts and craft store. I don't want it to block my intercooler..... plus i think that if the exotics can get away with not having a front license plate so can we!!!! Don't you think???
