Default First few Mods

Ah well guys I finally got to getting my first few mods done. Unfortunatenly, none of them are visible. But, i will have my new leather by the time EOS comes around I just installed a new set of Tokicos by myself.. a hell of a job! But it was fun and I learned a lot. And damn, working on these old cars is seriously a work out.. its awesome.. I get the car done, and build some muscle.. its like killing two birds with one stone.

But, hopefully to have done by EOS:


New Leather
Daizen bushings all around
new Strut bar
Tints
SS Brake Lines
NGK Spark plugs and Wires


See the problem? They're all great mods, but none of them are visible except the leather. Oh well, I'll still roll my stock looking LS to the meet.


Oh and mark, your "bucket" (which I still don't understand why you call it that.. hey man I'll trade you cars if you want), looks great.

Suneet,

Great place to start, in fact most of the stuff I did in the beginning was not noticable by looking at it either. No worries.

Suneet,
I would like you to join the 2IS Sunday Cruise meet on Sunday, 7/30.
You can show those 2IS's that classics never die. Plus, you can calibrate the windy and twisty cruise route w/ your new mods.

Brandicus,
my stoogie humidor is almost done. It will be the called "The Humi-Lex". Glove Box humidor conversion. you'll see it at EOS.

2 more months and maybe this time me and you can lead from the front this time. LOL.
Thanks bro...I endedup going to this high-end paintshop that only specialize in high-end imports...maybe youve heard of them..."Earl Schwieb"!! hahaha! I did actually have the whole car painted there, with my tte lip and ugo spoiler,...it was in my budget, and I'm really happy with the results considering its a low-end paint shop. My car looks 100000 times better than it did before, but still not worthy to lead a convoy yet. Yours on the other hand...you couldve led the convoy on that last meet, talking about needing plastic surgery! haha! Your car was sick looking, and I was expecting something subpar like mine! haha! You fooled me!

Thanks Tee...its always a compliment to be mistaken for bruddah Wills car, but I got a ways to go to catch up to him

Hey Suneet, thanks for the compliments. Its was always a bucket to me because I was always paranoid about how crappy the paint was.....then I just got used to calling her my bucket! ha! Congrats on your interior mods, I cant wait to check them out at EOS (I might end up bitting some ideas for my cars interior down the line )

Where do you work at? What are you driving, maybe we've passed each other around Concord. I know there is another green GS, but he's on 20's and isnt lowered I think. If you see me again, make sure you hit me with the highbeams or something...I'll buy a starbucks or something

Thanks again everyone for the compliments.

I work for a mortgage company off of Concord Ave and Pacheco by the parking garage acccross from the theatre. I drive a gold 2000 RX300 on 20s... not too much of us... and I'll probably be the only RX at EOS. I swear I've seen a green GS around the area. I'll make sure to give you a signal if I think I ever come accross you. Peace
