How difficult is it to install the hud?

Actually sending this stuff to paint today because paint side was swamped earlier this week

Nice, hopefully they get painted right. Can't wait to see them one color.

For me..it's super easy. I think they had it in your year. You might just find it easier to swap the whole dash

my hud is crazy bright, no need for fancy glass, 04+ FTW again

I know they did. My hope is that they have one at the junker that I can pull. And i'll be pulling most of the dash apart to paint it red anyway

This is the shotty body work I was referring to

There you go figured out your problem.

My car made it back to fort Wayne safe and sound. I miss it, but at the same time...I'm enjoying driving the g6.

Back seats are back in, took all but five minutes.

Ralm, I've been where you are right now.It's not a whole lot of fun, but I paint my own stuff. Your car should look so good after it's finished up.

Today was a good way to clean my wheels before winter. They aren't took bad looking for 22 year old rims. The lip on these still shines up. So many of these cars I see the lip is just trashed.

Before:



After x4:

went to the car wash, and de greased the bottom of the engine and trans, being that i resealed the valve cover and was nice and dry being 2 days since i redid the cover gasket. will have to see how it goes.

im really tired of this thing leak.

They look a hell of a lot better than mine i'm hoping mine will still clean up alright... gonna find out soon. And as for the car. I'll just be happy when its done and trans is working again

I hope you are able to get them to clean up. They can look like a mirror when shined up.

Well they're pretty far gone... brake fluid took its toll on them when I wore the brake pads to the point where one of them shot out from underneath the car...

Was 10 ft away from hitting a 10 point buck today. Reminded me two weeks ago my dad almost hit a deer with his base GP and found out he didn't have ABS pretty fast. Kind of strange, I always get close to hitting bucks, and did hit one with my first grand am (and surprisingly didn't damage anything, not even a a small dent). I've never come close to hitting a doe yet.

They are labor intensive to polish out. On a red car I'd paint the mesh black and the lip in red. I have seen it done and it looks cool.

You should totally clean yours again and show me how you get into those itty bitty areas
