Just thought I would bring this thread back up to date. The hood/spoiler/air dam are in body shop right now getting painted. I'm going all orange spoiler/airdam and hood. The only thing getting painted black will be the inlets for the hood/heat extractors. The only things planned after that are:

1. Get new reverse bar

2. New passenger side headlight

3. Paint wheels black leave chrome lip.

4. Get all of my rock chips taken care of with a new paint job to mirrors/front bumper.

5. This is kinda wishful thinking but I would love to have the orange on the seats just like the PFYC Orange GTP Inferno package car had. Wonder where I could take that to be done...

so, no motor work?

Not while under extended warranty. (Goes up to 100k) and I'm roughly @ 76k). Probably when I finish appearance it will be right around 100k. Should work itself nicely.

I've started the basic mods of course. 180 tstat, CAI, 104 Autolite Iridium XP's. Downpipe/PCM would be the first to go in, then a smaller pulley after I got a scan gauge. Headers I can't really do myself (tried) but I do know a downpipe I can do. Also would like the gmpp strut tower braces.

From that point on I would have to do a lot of reading and learning how to work on my car before I could continue with mods beyond that (and this is why this forum exists:D).

You can do a Strut Tower brace without voiding warranty, thats not motor work.

Ya but first I'm finishing appearance.

Sounds like its going to look sweet man. When you start with the motor stuff just read, read, and read some more. When I did my cam I pretty much memorized the write up and then printed it out to have with me.

In preperation for the 2 car shows I'm going to be attending I took some vinyl that was left over from a project at work and made some covers for the plastic plates I had. Did a reflective black with a brighter orange. Here is a pic, ill try to get a better one in day time with it on later:



I did this after work and was tired and took about 20 mins. I'm sure my quality could of been better but they are just for one time use. All I did was take the black and wrap it onto the plate, then cut using xacto blade. I made a cardboard template for arrowhead quick and was done.

whats the update? whens it gonna be finished?!?!

Body shop guy has kinda put my parts on the back of his mind so I'm hoping tomorrow he will be done. I won't be able to get it on till saturday morning or monday of next week, all depends on my work schedule and when he gets done. I don't want to push him because I want it done correctly. All I care about is it is done by the 24th (car show).

ahhh i see. good deal than!

update?
