    Almost pee'd myself when I saw that pic... too funny

    Also, please do hit me up sometime before you head back to college - I still haven't seen this beast in action!

    P.S. - any thoughts on hocking your remote brake booster setup?

                Any tips on separating the bumper from the trim? I need to get mine painted as well. Also, was the paint for the bumper krylon branded as well?

                  Not really, sorry :/ Just had a few differently sized flat heads and take your time!

                  No, the bumper paint was Rustoleum. Make sure to put a good amount of coats on, though. I only did 2 or 3 and it came out just a tad light, but nothing terrible.

                    Some random stuff.


                    Got some of the interior cleaned up, just a few more bits I'm waiting on till it's finished(apart from cage, new seats and harnesses).








                    Got Gretta pretty dirty.









                    Decided to repaint part of my bay, since I always use it for parts storage while working on the car.


                    Before:






                    After:







                    Threw an old bike grip on my ebrake handle. I don't know why, but it's so much nicer! Feels much better than stock, and especially just the bare handle.








                    This is why I need a new throttle pedal. If anybody can direct me to any universal floor mount pedals, that would be fantastic! Not really a safety issue, just a little annoying.








                    I actually decided to wash, wax and detail her. My work on the wheels was ruined 40 miles later thanks to my carbon race pads, but what can you do?










                    Did this for the heck of it.

                      You should paint the lettering on the tires. :)

                      And a unicorn horn to replace your roundel.
                      SO MUCH MORE TO DO!!

                        I want to like the exhaust, but man it kind of ruins it!

                        Have you considered a rear exit? There's something sexy about a big engine with a tamed exhaust note. Then again, if you simply love loud, then carry on. :pimp:

                            Yeah, this is just temporary so I stop setting off car alarms :) I agree, it looks ridiculous, but not "good".

                                Make a stencil and spray or hand paint with brush or paint pen. It's not rocket science.
