  • Ryan hooked me up with k&n cai today. I can't express how thankful I am for some really stand up guys on this site!!!!

    Ryan also explained how to adjust my rockers. Should have a good video for y'all this weekend.

    I may be moving up at my job by the end of the month so I can't wait!!!

    Trying to save this thing!

    • Dang, looks like a lot of work went into that piece. Looks pretty straight and even now though.

      What else do you have left body wise?

        Both quarter panels, one fender has a crack on the inside lip. I'll be repainting the whole car. Shooting for body the 25th and paint the 26th (of this month)

            I originally thought about it but a few reasons I stuck with stock mix:

            Didn't want to get away from stock color
            If I ever sold it or got into an accident the body shop would be mixing up the color wrong
            The rear bumper and Berger panel are already sprayed

            • Does anyone know the bolt size I need to plug an O2 hole in the ory?

              Should I spray my head light buckets gloss black or keep them a semigloss look? Also, should I spray the lower center part between fogs black or leave body color?

              Anyone have a lower air dam thing laying around? How about some balck lug nuts? Also need a center cap for a zr1 wheel.

                • I think it looks best as it came from the factory but with a high gloss black.

                      I wish I could spray everything all at once but I want the least amount possible in the booth with the car when I spray that. I'm using the same gun and it's all coming from the same gallon of paint, same color sealer too. Plus even bumpers from the factory on brand new cars don't match worth a broke dick lol. I think I should be ok. But I know where you're coming from.

                          With a full repaint, it's near impossible with your average size booth. Plus when you are clearing your last part you risk overspraying onto your car or visa versa, unless you are using really slow hardner. Plus you have to worry about the extra dirt coming off your stands and underside of bumpers dragging the hose that much more.It can be done, just a bitter sweet situation.
