Is it possible to embed the PFC and make a pop glass cover for it? Or a Sliding cover to cosile it? that would be nice.

I used aircraft paint remover... then polished it...



as for the tires.. running S02 Pole Positions... but just got BF Goodrich gForce KDs...

how did you prevent the polished lip from oxdizing? Did you clearcoat the lip after?

Jay, I am doing my panel now. I am looking at your pics and wondering why your panel has the "security, & overheat" buttons on the passenger side.



Any idea why that is?

Fd3BOOST 10-12-2003 12:12 AM

Well, i just finished repainting this guage pod that I bought.

So It came out so good that I wanted to do something else.

And Jays thread motivated me to get off my ass on this mod.

I have been meaning to do it since I saw it in Waels car at MADS.

Anyway..

So now I made up my mind to paint all my interior panels gloss black..





Until It snows I want to stick to mods that don't require taking that car off the road.

Oh and don't try taking pics and topping out 4th gear. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

dave i think they didnt put the a/c control on the driver side cuz it will be a pain in the ass resting your arm there with all those knobs



that steering column pod is real nice.... i want one

Fd3BOOST 10-12-2003 12:54 AM

Like I was talking about on aim.

I was taking notice of my arm and how is rests before I even bothered with doing this. My hand is always on the shifter and my arm barely touches the bottom end of the panel so i don't forsee it being an issue.

I moved mine to make sure all the A/C stuff clears underneth... the A/C button is really long... make sure you test fit w/ the electronics all mounted up..

Fd3BOOST 10-13-2003 12:24 AM

Yea I was just doing that. It will fit but its a tight squeeze.

I actually may just sell this one and do a second one now that I see where I could have done it better.
