I can't remember when's the last time I posted general pics, so here's a few of some mods. Car's still work in progress, but most of my plans now involve engine work.

Here's a thread to my new rear brakes:

Here's my DIY polishing on a crawford plenum. I'm waiting on an order for professional grade polishing material, so it should have a mirror shine in the future.



There's also a 5 minute mod of the brake fluid cover.


Nothing new here, just the cleared amber on the headlight and X5 projectors. I can't believe that it's been over a year since I did this mod.


My rear brakes finally match my front brakes. My car's a 5AT, so pretty much all the brake components have been changed now.

 

very nice...how much did your front brakes cost???

 

how do you keep your engine compartment so clean? do you wax it?

Also, I noticed the upper right corner, where the clutch and brake fluid meters are, is covered up. I have a '04 but mine didn't come with a cover. Did I miss something?

 

daniel, the front brakes were about $1100. It's just Red 4 piston Brembos that I got off ebay with 1 piece rotors (cheap) and stoptech SS lines.

lucino, that's the japanese G35 (skyline) battery cover, you can get it from grubbs or strictlyz. And yes, I do wax the engine compartment, along with using plenty of rubber conditioner. People thought that I was nuts for using a clay bar and Zainoing the engine compartment of my Acura Legend.

 

Dude, you are nuts! looks good though, but I don't have 4 hrs to waste doing that crap.

 

more pics of xenon projectors NOW!!!!
