GaleForce's build

wheee! · 12-13-2012, 07:11 AM

no MacGyver....

Had a productive couple of hours out in the garage. Shaved the carbon fangs to fit with the Mine's lip, and test fit the moustache.

It was a little nerve wracking trimming the fangs, but it turned out well.

Also found a guy 30 minutes away that will be able to rework my Berk CBE so it mates up with the Boosted Perfomance turbo kit

Happy, happy, happy!

Thanks!

I'm looking forward to it too. I just noticed, while looking at the picture I posted, an area that I'm not entirely happy with... I need to find time to get into the garage to have a closer look...

Everything is looking great! I am waiting to see what you have in store for that gauge pod. As I told you I have a 52mm multi gauge that I want to mount in that spot. I'll do a temporary mounting until you have your plans all sorted out!

Man, that front end is looking good. I love that CF look.

Good job, you have some amazing skills. McGuyver doesn't even start to describe them!!!

Thanks Bud

So, good news... I just received a phone call from the local dealership, the part I ordered for my gauge pod is in

The bad news... I don't have the time to work in the garage for a few days

I'm trying to figure out where to add CF to the new gauge pod, but the design doesn't really permit the use of it... I'll have another look today to see if I can figure something out.

GaleForce · 12-19-2012, 06:36 PM

Well... finished

I customized the bezel from the Innovate Motorsports A/F ration gauge from gloss black to a nice satin black to match the other gauges.

Top = Factory
Bottom = Custom

It'll be a little while before I mount it in the car as I need to remove the IP so I can swap out the triple gauges.

Mr&Mrs · 12-19-2012, 07:25 PM

I can haz?

I didnt forget about the requested pic of mine, just been lazy lol. The car is so far away in the garage and sitting in it just to take a picture annoys me to even think about lol.
