The yellow stitch job looks great.

Quick370z 04-08-2013 03:34 PM

in for pix

the stitching you used a pen? or..

TaylorRyan370 04-08-2013 03:41 PM

I used a fabric marker from JoAnn Fabrics

Infamous 04-08-2013 04:02 PM

Did the color bleed into the seats or any of the other areas you dyed with the pen?

TaylorRyan370 04-08-2013 04:05 PM

No. I mean I can't tell since yellow doesn't really show up on black.

Infamous 04-08-2013 04:08 PM

Cool. What was the brand of marker you used?

TaylorRyan370 04-08-2013 04:15 PM

Uchida fine tip fabric markers. I tried the sharpie brand fabric markers and the yellow was too green.

TaylorRyan370 04-09-2013 11:54 PM

Love getting parts in the mail :D

http://imageshack.us/a/img855/183/photo11jz.jpg

Also swapped the rear amber turn signal bulbs with chrome ones. Getting to the lights was such a pain in the :icon23:. Whoever decided the whole trunk needs to come out to access them needs to be fired lol. Looks much better though.

TaylorRyan370 04-11-2013 08:31 PM

Tigger 04-11-2013 09:32 PM

holy crap man... take it easy! yer killin' me! I want to mod out so bad like I did with my last car. Just trying not to go into debt. lol! Pretty sweet stuff you got going on there. You gettin rid of your 19s or are they winter backups? I like my 18" base rims but everytime I see the 19s I like 'em even more. Ah well. Happy modding!

TaylorRyan370 04-11-2013 10:33 PM

I am selling the stock wheels and tires. I know I have had the car for a week and a half and I already have over have my mods ready to install lol.

Mr&Mrs 04-11-2013 10:45 PM

Nice build so far, I really like the black and yellow combo you going with.

TaylorRyan370 04-12-2013 09:49 PM

Got my Tein lowering springs installed today!

Boost_lee 04-12-2013 10:05 PM

nice

door handles next?

TaylorRyan370 04-12-2013 10:15 PM

Yep! Doing color matched! Since I am getting black wheels, they would stick out like a sore thumb if I didn't paint them.

TaylorRyan370 04-13-2013 11:52 PM

Teaser of my new lip...
