well are you going to change your audio system? cause then you could have waited so u could have painted that also....but atleast you know what it will look like and would have had the experience to paint the kit

Yea I'm going to get a DD kit one of these days,Ive taken the dash apart a few times now and It really only take 15 minutes or so to get the head unit out,so when i swap it it wont be a big deal changing the color.I was actually going to get a new head unit and dd kit this week...instead i bought a Crawford V1 Plenum and Nismo full CAI and today i picked up a Top Secret Authentic Poly Front bumper...so there goes my monthly spending money
Right now its prep'd and sanded.Getting money together to get it painted
