Ganyon's 99 GS build thread

im wondering if trim paint is a good idea? wanna try it first so i see the outcome? haha

 

[Ganyon]

Tape everything off and plast-dip the trim. It looks good.

 

[99TegLs]

you've done that? and is it flat black or gloss to match the front?

 

[Ganyon]

No but I've seen some people on here do it. I want to say its flat black but I can't remember exactly.

 

[99TegLs]

hmm i need gloss. you know? btw, seeing both of our cars, do you like the clear side marker signals on mine or the ambers on yours? im stuck, because idk which one i like better

 

[Ganyon]

I like both. I had clear lights, which I think flow better with silver, but I put my amber lights in because the bulbs didn't match. Lol.

 

[Ganyon]

Been busy today. Connected my antenna to the power wire, stripped out my rear interior, cleaned the puddle in my trunk, and started working on the big 3 upgrade.

 

[99TegLs]

big 3 upgrade?

 

[Ganyon]

Upgrade motor to chassis ground wire, battery to chassis ground, and alternater to battery positive.

 

[Ganyon]

Might be getting some blades with tires for $200. Damn good deal IMO.

 

[99TegLs]

Really? lucky... by the way, did you know that blades are actually heavier than fat 5's? Weird huh?

 

[Ganyon]

Yeah. And I didn't know they were heavier. That's a surprise.

 

[Ganyon]

Doin work.

Started washing.

Done washing.

I also cleaned my headlights with toothpaste, then waxxed them. Pics come later since I'm on my iPod.
