Default Winter Night Pics

So I don't have to hear it, I'll just say it ahead of time.
I know my car is dirty as sh!t, it's winter. I'll clean it up and make 'er all spit clean and polished once the weather warms up enough for me to spray a little water and run a few power tools. Yeppers - I know I never finished painting the cockpit, I got lazy and the weather got cold to fast and I do not have a garage.

With all that said; here are the pics. tongue.gif:

Nice DASH! I love that blue, but not so much for the cowls
But whatever, it's your ride.

BTW, what buttons do you have by the shifter?

They are little LED switches that run the fogs and the underbodies. Although, as of now, the fog lights have no wiring due to grounding issues. I ripped em clean out.

the dash looks very nice, but it looks like it came out of nowhere in the interior. imo i think it would be better with more of a blue theme in your interior.. good job tho

You need to add more blue to the engine compartment.. I would attack the valve covers in blue and the plug wire cover and timing belt cover in the same silver as the car.

and btw.. your car looks spotless compared to mine.

Suggestions, good so far though.

1. Engine. Paint your spark plug cover and valve cover. GREAT RESULTS/LOOKS

2. Interior. GET SOME CUSTOM COLORED BOOTS from the for sale forum. Your interior is begging for them.

3. Interior. Paint some stuff on the other side blue to bring the effect across. The glovebox cover comes off easily, maybe a few parts on the passenger door.

^^
I plan on finishing the dash and trim once the weather starts warming up. I will paint the valve and sparkplug covers once I buy another set, although the imports yard here is a joke. They want $200 for a 1.8L ECU and $100 for the cam; like I'd pay that for some used Elantra parts.
