    mufflers on, but held on by a bungee cord lol

    until i get either soe hangers or just a proper mount setup

    man, i had 2 cut the pipe above the rear a arms and run a 6"X2.25" pipe

    from the exhaust pipe to the muffler, and the mufflers just been sat on, but the pipes been clamped onto the oringonal system,

    either way, looks sooooo sweet, i purposely made the pipe logn so the exhaust sticks out a bit, not past the bumper but so u can see all the polished metal...

    pics soon



    youll find theres a "custom targa top conversion" in the aftermarket modifications section, i am serioulsy inrested in this, will definately look into it.. would definately make my car unique thats for sure

    vent done and riveted on, get pics of all things new soon

    vent look tuner ricey, but the hood scoop levels it out to looks smooth

    :D

    love the twin turned up pipe's!

    the vent doesnt look TOO ricey, as long as you know its functional (is it?)

    Looks good, the only thing I would do is paint as much bits black behind the mesh as possible, so you dont see unsexy stuff like the horn too easy. Also I would chop the towing eye off, as it looks uncool next to the exhaust. but it looks spot on and a credit to you! love the air filter vent!

    I think you should move the scoop towards the front of the car more....

    i cant, its got some adhesive crap that got put on, stays on for about 2 or 3 years.

    its only a minor thing.


    and alwayzsidewayz, ive thought about that, but havent got around to it yet, yeh it is ugly to see all that crap. and i want the whole car to be black so if that isnt done soon, it will be done when the car is painted.

    do the towing eyes come off easy? or are they welded or soemthing?

    in the states we have this stuff called oops it eats through adhesive residue...

    I removed so many stickers and had a ridiculously clean surface you should have something over there.

    um the only thing that comes too mind is graffiti remover, u spray it on lipstick, pen, spray paint, etc maybe glue

    there is alot of stuff from otehr contries that would make alot of money if they were sold down here, but they arent...



    just a few days away from getting my $1800 i mentioned a while ago, so excited!!

    We use "rapid-remover" at the sign shop. I think in your case, you could put some on a wire and pull it through to break the bond.

    somthing that no one has mentioned is that you really need to seal that battery. I am going to relocate my battery too but you have to have it sealed because it leaks gases into the cabin. google it.

    btw, great job! For being 16, you know a good bit.

    thanks man!

    and for the battery, is in one of the side "slots" so when i get my subwoofer, and when i get around to making my new rear setup for the stereo ill put an enclosure around the battery, the car isnt roadgoing so for the moment, who cares. lol
