Nice way to waste all your money on those rims. I can just see them getting all damaged when you take a hard corner.

the gauges are already in. Im working on the blue lighting for the floor, radio bezel, shifter and floor.
Still waiting on the wood grain kit and suede to get here to. Then im going to work on the audio. Im not sure what route to go, i dont want a large system, but i want it to bump maybe like a single 10 or 12. any suggestions on the cabin speakers?

UPDATE "feb 22"
Here are the new pics......
Lowered....this springs are great, rides real good and the drop was perfect.
added some grill and after market fog lights. You can see he shape of the hood is bad, need to get hersome pain when the winters over.
painted the inner tails to match the car, probally have them filled, but wanted to make sure i liked it long term before I have it done.
Interior
the work was well worth it
added blue led under the shifter indicator
also under the radio, the floors a good shot of the guages.

not a bad start. the suede looks nice. Vents looks tasteful.
I'm still not a fan of the shiftboots. Seems a bunch of people have done it, and it always seems too narrow to be a good "boot". Hmm... not quite sure how to get around that through.

Looking good man!
But if you went through the trouble of putting black suede on your tan sun visor... why would you go back and put a tan cd holder on it..

Should be able to just throw it in. When people install the racing styl seats they have used the pass track on driver side, so should work opposite. Then just tap into the wires under drivers seat

yea, Im trying to work the problem with adding the lumbar adjustment to a seat that doesnt have (no pas lumbar or electric seat), as well as adding the switch for the seat adjustment, without risking damaging the seat in the process.
I could skip the lumbar and place the seat on the track and add the switch to the dor panel next to the window and lock switch,,,,,,,,,
