Good job so far except the wax on the inner fenderwells this will do nothing to deter further rust,a good alternative would be to spra- undercoat on the seams after cleaning up the rust a little with a scotch brite pad if U do'nt want to risk undercoat overspra- use automotive clear this will help seal the joints .Chico(pops)

Thank for tip Chico. If I storage my car in winter season so rust won't get worse right? I won't drive my car in snow season. It is sitting in garage where it belong until Spring.

BoostenGTP02: This picture was taken last Sunday January 31st. That's why I decide hold trailing arm & front sway bar to drive that car in sunny 40 temp day. I actually knew it will snow bad after check 10 days of weather site. Right now, I have around 6 inches but road already clear out. It will be nice to let snow melt and start driving again. Guess it won't happen in few weeks :-(

After super busy work. It took me month to wait for install them. Of course, it doesn't work out like I hope so. 1 hid work. Install other hid. The car lights went flicking all over.

There are some pictures.

projector vs. stock




Install them together until 2nd HID cause my car flicking worse because I believe I need relay.


I unplugged 2nd hid out. It is back working. Guess I can drive that car with 1 hid lol


Then I install stock with clear corner on my winter car as you can tell I need new headlight badly.


Got 2007 cloth seat set for winter car too. Should be there this week. Love those seat for soft and backseat folding so I can load large stuffs.

Looking good Palsut. Maybe it's time for some visual mods that will bring some color to the car?

Should go orange to match the projector reflectors:D + silver + orange sounds pretty nice.

Take those suggestions or leave them lol, your car looks great as is.

looks good palsut, im contemplating on if i want them or not. how much did you pay shipped and who did you buy from?

also how is the cutoff? The reason i ask is because i know some people had issues with a bad cuitoff with the new ones.

I don't like orange on the corner but nothing can I do about that. Almost all cars come with this I guess. I saw clubgp member have silver car with orange theme. Not bad looking but I really like black theme better.

I have no idea what is cutoff. I will pm you for info. I'm at someone's house so I don't have info with me. All I just plugged and install them. That's it. Love easy step by step lol But it is actually very deep worse than chrome corner projector. Black one is shaking VERY VERY BAD!!!! That's hell embarrassing to driving 30 miles with light went up and down all the times. Not sure if it is lousy stock projector light bulb or I didn't tight enough. Guess I have to look clubgp projector bounce mod thread later. I really like stock projector light. It doesn't bother me but since I brought HID already. I figure I will just put HID on it. Then I will head to dealership to change remote flashing thing because I can't "hear". Hope they will do that for me free.

When 18 wheels truck arrived to my mom's house. I just can't believe I saw 18 wheels truck! I thought it will be small delivery truck in resident area. My mom's street is VERY small and DEAD END. Poor guy have to turn the big truck for like 5 minutes. Few minutes later, more bad new. School bus is on way to drop kids after school hour. 18 wheel truck has go to my yarn to let bus go by. What a mess. I helped him to load the hood down from trailer. After I looked at the trailer. I just like wtf. Big trailer is empty but only 1 hood box? Wow. I thought it was funny for whole trouble thing in small street for big truck.

I got exciting like I got christmas gift. I rip the box off. My react just like "Oh no... I knew they (grand prix members) will saying you are coping of BoostenGTP because I have a black hood. lol

MPD F1 Hood


Full engine shot


Tuck the engine for good night sleep last night lol


My dad and I installed this hood today.



I have to say. Wow! Way much better. It makes job easy fast. No more hood touch my front bumper rubbing. Of course it is OEM frame which it is easy to close. Of course it will PAINT silver! laugh

Everyone is happy with MPD F1 hood. So I decide to take a bite and get this one instead old PYFC hood. It does look great. Wish I couldn buy that 2 years ago but at least I'm selling it. Got few buyers line up. As you can see I don't have grille yet but I will install new honeycomb grille to match upper & lower grille. You can see my old PFYC hood is on my car roof. It will gone soon when buyer will come and pick it up. Also, it has escape heat behind the hood near windshield that PYFC doesn't have that.

nice job patrick! ho muchy was it, if you dont mind me asking?

also when you get the chance, pull your car up to a white wall or a garage door 6 ft away with your lights on and snap a picture, that will tell me everything i am asking.

for the bounce, just take 2 wood shims and place them between the bumper support and the bumper cover (this will raise the bumper cover up a little to touch the projector but there will b no more bounce.

There is link for this. Same price and same seller that I brought last week.

I will do that if you are not that hurry on weekend for lawn work later. My car is 30 miles away from me. It is storage on garage right now at my mother's house.

Sound like work to me for wood shims. My pass side gap is getting bigger but it is way it was. My stock headlight, chrome projector and black projector are doing same thing like that. Guess they build the car too way off. frown

Also, my full red LED taillights is coming tomorrow. Of course it will tint. My winter tail got bad leaking with full of water. I seal it pretty good but I still got the leaking. Just got other dead bulb this morning. That's 5th bulbs so far. mad At least they are cheap to replace.
