Don't ask me how I know this, but if you itch from the carbon fiber particles and resin, run your hands and arms under hot water to open your pores. Then in one direction brush pantyhose over your skin to grab onto the microscopic fibers and particles.

 

You dont have to explain yourself hahahaha.... I used my wifes exfoliating scrub and a microfiber towell... kinda worked. Then I remembered back to my Pre Med days... Whenever I would prep for a surgery I would always have to clean my hands with a pumas stone becuase it gets everything.... did it and it worked GREAT!!!

 

I now have BLUE seat belts. Should match WELL!!!!

 

I also just finished Custom painting these Supertone Horns.... looks to match well!

 

Just found this thread... Awesome ****ing project man

 

Should be finishing up in May hopefully...

 

Here is my Rear seats DONE AND DONE!!!!!!

 

Car is FINISHED and TUNED... I will pick it up in about 2 weeks... (2 hour drive from where I live) I was hoping for 550-600..... Well I got..................... 430-480WHP. The Tuner called and said if it were his car he would stop there. Said he recommends new hot side piping, possibly a new turbo, new valve gaskets, and a better oil catch system. Said they could do it all but honestly just take it and enjoy it and bring it back in like December and do the changes then. Its making 480 on 10 pounds of boost.

 

^that's plenty man, dont spend any more on it for a while, and enjoy the car for a bit. You know the mod bug won't go away, so that way you'll have an excuse to do so at the end of the year

 

Yup.. I got a quote from the shop and they said it would only be 400 to do it... I know it sounds steep for a oil catch can, but its with parts and labor. They also will be welding onto the valve cover. They want it on the valve cover because I has having oil blow through some seals... So replace the seals and install the catch can... I am working some deals for a air suspension and cosmic pearls may be sponsoring my car for show season. AKA I will be dipped for all of show season.

 

Here is my issue and my list
