I did mine on my own, and I can't do **** by myself, lol. you have a little room to mess up, cause you tuck them in under the hood and under the fender well, so it doesn't have to be dead nuts perfect. Make sure you spray your fender before you go to put them on, cause if not then you won't be able to move it when it gets on there. Did you ever get your tail lights darkened? I remember you said you were going to do them, but I never saw a pic or heard you say aything about it.

I'm more worried about getting it at the right measurements, proper space between them....... They are 3" silver stripes, going on the driver side.... I Guess I can work with painters tape first to get the correct angle and use the tape as a guide line....

I just had mine cut like 3 inches wide with a 1 inch gap, and like 2 feet long so I knew I had PLENTY. you can find something to do with the left over. It cost me 15 bucks, and I had enough to do my spoiler end caps.

I did have my interior trim wrapped in vinyl..... looked great, almost like a wet glossy black.....then summer started getting to it and it started to bubble. I eventually took it off, then fucked up the trim in the process, had to get all new dash trim.....Painted it black.... but my steering wheel pieces held up nice and still look good with the vinyl.....the **** is also covering the holes where the bowtie used to be and the SS is now

If you want aftermarket wheels, the best deal right now is MSR's group buy they are doing. They are CHEAP for aftermarket wheels, there are also a couple of guys on the classifieds that are selling stock 18's for a little less than the MSR wheels.

See there is some truth to that. If they are stock they are not that fast, like mine, mine is slow right now due to being stock and money issues,

If I had the money it would be a 12 second balt

i hope by then i'll have my windows tinted, its a toss up between that and a new ipod, since my car got broken into and everything stole out of it. gets very annoying trying to switch out CD's every time i get in the car. either way im getting both, just takes time.
