brother, its simple... all you'd be doing is holding it here and there while im unscrewing/ screwing bolts. AND it'd be a good opportunity for you to learn how to install an aftermarket exhaust if you ever plan to upgrade.

Yeah I have a FI exhaust and HFCs coming in November.

Yeah I'm free Saturday now as it turns out and willing to help.

Red is neat:

Those LED pods are really bright and when you unlock the car, it looks really cool.

The downside is that red license plate lights are 100% illegal and will result in a moving violation if you get pulled over that = 2 points on your license. I'm gonna keep them for shows though like P&S at Carlisle next year.

Yeah that sounds like a good idea. It literally takes like 2 mins to swap them out so not a big deal.

Yeah I messed around with the rear bulb mounts. It's just a plastic tab that you pop and pull down and the bulb/wire drops down right in front of you. It's really easy to get to.

Haven't done the trunk light yet but I did the overheads in about 5 minutes (and kept the stock bulbs).

You could also get white LEDs for the license plates to put in instead of the stock ones. Would look better while you're on the road.

Yeah maybe eventually. Don't need to make my plate any more visible than it already is...

Anyway, still waiting on my butyl sealant to show up. I bought it from the same place E/W did and I still havent' received it. Checking my order, it does say that the estimated delivery date is this 9/11-15 so hopefully it will show up before Saturday.

I might use this Saturday to refinish my wheels. Not sure if my cousin will have time to help me with it then or if I'll have time to stop by and see how you guys are doing.

Damn dude, you havent gotten it yet? Did it ship out of Philly? Mine did.

eastwest2300 09-09-2012 10:27 PM

I got to see my illuminated kick panels at night, they look pretty sweet, I gotta say.

Dunno.

Just got my ship notification. No idea why it took them a week but that'll work.

Any idea where to get that Krylon semi gloss black paint? Tried home depot and they don't carry Krylon products. Girlfriend is checking Lowes for me after work. After that I'm running out of ideas.

E/W where'd you get yours?
