so here she is so far. filler primer. mmm.

i got the kit a while back but just started on her. the schemes black and white so the exterior is going back to jet shiny black and the air vents will have painted white mesh like the skirts and im waiting for my white 18's to show up.

im also going to change out the ugly rear lights to the triple ones.

the interior is getting reupholstered to a black and white because the racing seat are way too uncomfortable. but right now my progect is my vent halos. actually just got the rod today smile.gif .
well theres so much more i can say but i wanna start on the halos! cya.

If the man wants to work on the car himself, let him!

Looking good man.

You should see if you can get a hold of an ATH Roof Spoiler. laugh.gif Those are killer with the kit.

Oh yeah, for your grills... try some Gutter Guard from Home Depot. Works great and its like 5 bux for a 15ft roll.

erebuni sells a roof spoiler..

anyway, not a fan of the cuda kit on rd2s but it looks good for a cuda.. the ONLY thing i would change is not have the exhaust tips stick out .

can't wait to see it painted.

are you going to mold in the spoiler?

yeah now that ive seen up close pics of the roof spoiler ill prob pass on it but socks you're right about the tips. when i was at the shop we positioned them in while it was up in the air and they didn't seem like they would stick out as far...

and no i didnt really like the look of it molded on.

just finished up my vent halos! was waiting for my ebay leds to come in the mail. now time to take apart all the switches and do the led upgrade.

You don't like the ATH spoiler? If you were looking at erebuni, then that's not the ATH.

ATH matches the lines of the tib better than any other roof spoiler I've seen. Blacktibs and myself both have them. I don't think many people have em anymore.

BTW: Just an idea, but try doing this with the area in the fender. Looks much cleaner.

maybe later down the road ill look into the roof spoiler. im so sick of body work now and just want my car back to normal. well installing the spoiler would be a sitch but the air escapes in the fenders wont even be noticable once painted over in black ya know?
