i like the washer triangle paint matched, that's cool. i'm not sure about the eye lid part of it.
either way i'm going to have to do something about the outsides of the lenses with the grey border. it's molded into the lens so i have to do some kind of paint work on the outside.
and i like the hood without the vents. those vents are rice like mad.
Eh, I don't know.
If the little vents are functional, then I wouldn't have an issue with them. They aren't sticking OFF the hood, they kinda flow into it.
The cowl however, bleh.
I'd do the middle portion, and black out the rest. Are you doing anything with the amber lower lenses?
for now, no. however, STS-V fog lights are the same (with different brackets), but they are clear. they sell them on ebay all the time. that's always an option.
I'd do that, especially with the silver.
If it was red, or black...I would leave it.
i'll have to look into it. the last i saw they didn't really go "cheap". caddy taxes.
Sounds about right.
Should have bought a crappy Grand Prix? :)
wideband gauge location. it should still be able to close up and hide when i don't want to see it. will post up when i get it actually together.

this.
i like when someone puts alittle thought into gauge placement
i'm going to get the gauge into the ash tray on lunch today. probably won't mount it in the car until i get figure out how i want to wire it.
most likely going to tap into the HVAC power.
here's where it's gonna go.

i can't close the ash tray right now so it's going to take some trimming somewhere to make it open/close. side note that i broke a nub off of the ash tray area which is where the spring clip sat and made the ash tray spring loaded...so now i have to open/close it manually. oh well.
That looks nice!
+1 for a great execution and function. If I didn't hate wiring so much I would've mounted mine above the rear view mirror in a pod.
like i said, it's not done yet. i still need to get it to close or i don't like where i put it. and it's not wired at all.
Ricer gauge installed and not doing anything.
You ricer.
i took it out after the picture, hater.
I'll report you for letting a toddler drive your car

i had to modify both the HVAC/ash tray housing as well as grind down the bezel so it'd be about half the height. now in return i have a custom bezel with vents. i still need to sand it down so it's not so ugly shaped and paint it. but it works! next step is to wire it, yay.
That's awesome. I really like that
i also got the spring loaded action of the ash tray working again. i'm an engineer, no big deal.
no more rice gauge.
I like it too :)
