here it is after a good waxing, i guess i did a decent job



finally got one of them on, i put on the sunroof visor thing, it looks weird cuz the roof is closed, i like where it is

but when i was putting it on i messed up the NT in enthusiasts but overall i like it.



one of my projects, spoiler rusted out on right side, so i took it off only to find a lot of dirt and holes, planning to get new one or fill holes... idk

looks like your off to a good start. If you want some ideas, definately take a look at mine, cardana24's, maximusrideus, wylie-c, and max88q's cars. We all have a good combination of things you can do.

In fact here are some pics:

Hey Surra I noticed that you have your amp on top of your sub box. Thats cool from a space saver standpoint however the vibrations from the sub will break the soldered connections and really mess the amp up. I mounted mine to the back of the seat. Not that it is going to help much I have a 15" MA audio filling the trunk and I think the whole car is going to rattle apart sometimes.

You need to shield the new filter from the engine heat! It would also be good if you could duct colder air from the outside of the car to the filter (with engine heat shield in place). You probably losing power just from the hot engine air.

well its going to be a while, cuz im going to figure out what hoses i need to have hooked up to the intake, and also im going to get rit of that grey air box if at all possible that will open the engen bay up, i seen someones cai and hey still had the grey airbox so idk

it seems to me that using the airbox (mine's black, not gray) would be pointless, as the cai could be ram air as well, if the airbox is in there, the air will have to take a major diversion down and then back up... seems kinda pointless to me. I might start to tackle the cai today, but first I'm going to clean her up and take some pictures for you all

not the air box that holds the air filter,,, the air box that is hooked up to the intake, which is where the cai would hook up to now

The grey box is actually nothing more than a muffler to quiet down the intake noise. You can definately get rid of it, and the air filter box and do this:

Yeah, it's not a "full blown" CAI, but you can run it into the fenderwell, like everyone else has done. My car was blue, until I repainted it 2-1/2 years ago. It was just a quickie colour change, I still have blue doorjambs too. When you paint vehicles all day long you tend to skimp a bit when you do your own stuff...
