it was a bit tricky, not many people would want to do it because you scrape off the plastic rivit ends and then super glue and hot glue the inserts back into place. took about 3 hours total to do

I have a how to write up in the how to section. I wrote that up last summer

^^ attention ^^ they got yours ! I think stickers are ok as long as you don't go over board with great big god awful ones. I think his car looks fine. Personally I like the superman decals on the taillights. Most people NS's or put covers on them. Something different. Guess it comes down to it's your car do what you want to it. People don't like oh well.

i dont like the Comp Cams sticker too much, its way too big. if ferrea had some they would be on there and the Egale sticker was even bigger then the comp cams so that didnt go on the car. i might get a nice set of Silver vinyl list made to put on the door, small of course. Just want it advertised, "do you really want to race this car" lol kind of reaction im hoping to get once im 100% complete with the car

never know, it might detur people from atempting to street race me, well except other heavly modded cars

Nice, man! Yours is one of the nicest 2.2's on the site! Are you going to do a custom turbo kit? The way you have your car built up, it would be a shame just to slap on the Garrett kit. BTW, is that a dry shot?

yeah, im going with the STS remote mount set up from www.ststurbo.com its a universal kit but with me using AEM f/ic i will be fine when it come to tuning for it

its both dry and wet, it uses 50 shot dry in stage one and then uses a 50 shot dry and 75 shot wet at the same time in stage 2
