Berger panel and Whistler mod and....Sorry dial-up, you'll be here all day

!emblems and a few other misc. things.

I finally had a chance to detail her and snap some pics out at the fair grounds.

I tried painting the Berger panel myself but I couldn't get the smooth finish that I wanted so I forked out 60 bucks and had the panel and the grill painted professionally. I glad I did!

Here's a few pics....enjoy....











Here's a pic of the mod I did to the volant cai. Free ram air on the volant.

Yeah, I wanted to do some up close shots of the lights but my lenses have little cracks all over. I tried sanding but it didn't work, so I'll probably buy a new or used set.

Thanks Carri, although I didn't get the engine bay nearly as clean as I wanted. I ran outta time. It took almost 6 hours to do what I did and the sun was going sown. I wanted to get some pics before it got dark so I did a rush job on the engine bay.

I don't think you did, but did you paint the ridges on the headlights? What did you use to try to polish the lens? I really like that berger panel! What paint did you use before you took it in?
