I took a lot of night pics but a lot did not turn out good enough to show. We are trying to get together for a better shoot and this time with a tripod. Here are some pics that did turn out.

looks nice. are you gonna paint the lip and grille? i think you should, and maybe even consider painting the foglight houseing. that'd look sick. and some black housing headlights

...and is that beer the dogs are drinking??

They def. love Corona's The white dog tends to like Natty light better. She is a cheap date

Not going to paint it. It is going up for sale the way it is and the new owner can decide what they wanna do with it.

Couldve done without the other pics....you should keep the lip off until you paint it.

I like the other pics that why I posted them. I am leaving the lip on, I am not painting it I am selling the car. I like the black on green look and the front looks jacked up with out the lip. Plus its winter time and if I was to paint it I wouldn't until spring time. Thanks

Plus if you didn't wanna see the other pics then don't click on this thread. I put in the description other pics inside.

Hate to admit it, but your car looks much nicer now. Nice pics too, looks like a fun time.

wow man, you car looks 1000x better man, keep up the work, how snug does the gsr cluster fit? and if you plan on getting different rims, your car would be the s**t, after rims your car imo needs nothing else, good job

The cluster fits really good, there is a little gap at the top but probably with a little adjusting it could go away. I would like to be riding on a nice 16" but not looking to spend any more on this car. These are fairly light 17's compared to others.

a fellow virginian. your frined shoudl sell his SS and drop the money in to the lude. . it'll be nicer and faster and he knows it too. . hahahah

but looks like a nice turn out, we all need to get together and hang out, i'l bring my frined wiht hsi tubro lude we can all f**k around. plus he wants to runs a Z06 anyways jsut to see if he can do it.

and your car has made it far, you need some smaller wheels man and you'd bepretty set. take off those heavy ass wheels they're gonan drink your gas for you.

and if i were you i'd leave the lip inpainted give it a stealthy look, and leave the skirts un painted too. it'll have this OEM flavor to it. but the car is clean.

Yeah I like the look a lot better on my car then what it use to look like. The Z06 is nasty. I got to ride in it and with a a few seconds I look over at the speedo and we are doing 105mph and you can't even tell you are going that fast. The SS is pretty quick to, he has the nitrous kit for it just not fully installed yet. I was in the SS last friday night and a 95 hatch with a type r swap on 100shot and race gas decided he wanted to run. The hatch ended up a couple cars back before the top of 4th gear and we were still pulling.

On saturday night we had a lot of cars out a 04 GTO, 01 SS, 01 Corvette Z51, 06 Corvette Z06, my 99 ex with b16a swap, 00 civic Si, 99 Civic ex with type r swap, 95 hatch with k20a swap, 99 hatch with ls on 7lbs of boost, silver evo, 95 hatch with type r swap on 100shot. I think thats about it. It was cold and everytime I took a pic it would come out blurry. I am going to get a new camera soon.

on a scale of 1 to 10, how hard was the cluster swap?

3. I had the piping flex strap laying in the garage. Cut the strap 1"in and then had to do some trimming at the bottom to narrow the width of it. Bolted the brackets in and lined up the cluster. As far as wiring I posted a How-To. Do a search for my threads you will find it. The hardest part was figuring out how to de-pin the harness. I am not a fan of cutting and soldering wires when all you have to do is repin the connectors. While I had the cluster out I changed the three bulbs from white to red.
