Thread: What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0

If you part it I want the mud flaps lol

Thanks. I'm gonna swap some stuff over, not as much as I would like being the front suspension is different. I want my 36mm sway bar back.

I actually bought two sets of mudflaps and only used one set

36mm sway bar? Damn, lol. Welcome to 04+ seats and Superchargers. lol.

Blue that looks real fresh. Nice car.

Yeah it's the dorman sway bar, that's 36mm right?

Liking everything about this car over my 02 except the little mods like led interior lights and retros, inlays, etc. Love the supercharger sound, and how even quarter throttle passes on the freeway you can still hear it lol. It needs a shift kit though, downshifts on the stock trans are unimpressive

Thanks junk, its not perfect but is in better shape than my 02 so I can't complain. No rust is a wonderful thing

One question for now, where can I find the plastic clips that the license plate screws go into? One is missing and the other damaged.

When the retros getting done?

Probably in the spring when it warms up, I need to focus on needs before winter hits

Indeed. Don't smear grease on this one, use 3M stuff like rust fighter and undercoat that lasts. Are they the really small four way split square white plastic screw grommets like on 02s, at the bottom? Never looked for em at a parts store but they might be there. I have nabbed them at the JY since they are kinda wierd. I am not beyond making a new screw hole next to the OE one and letting one side of the screw head hold it since it isn't easily seen.

My one question is... will you carry on as 02NavyBlue? Seems like a solid member could get a legit name change if he was to talk to the right person.

I could change but I'm known by that now lol. No I would undercoat with something else, grease is a good "well its already rusty anyway so grease will slow it down" this one has no rust. I want to use what my uncles f250 has. Black and super tough. Could be por.

Here's the clip. It's different from what the part stores had.

...Started, should finish up tomorrow, Hopfully my buddy swings by with the welder

You'll want this kind... I don't have a # for you but thats the intended type. Clip you showed is for sheetmetal I think. At first I thought you wanted front bumper license filler plate screw grommets (#6), not for the tag itself. These hold tag to car.

What I showed you is the remaining clip that was holding the license plate on the trunk lid. It is a rectangular clip unlike the square ones I keep seeing

Aw hell, some 04+ bs lol. Good hunting bro. Dorman's site is a good reference but does not include license grommets in it's search by car feature. If its much hassle I'd be at the GM place or JY getting some.

I'll likely go searching the net, and dealer if I have to. Rain will get in my trunk if they stay out

Copper RTV it hahaha

Jb quick weld!

Thats a bunk design, thanx GM. Shave that entire bezel area and drop your own tag pocket into it, that would look much more better smooth.
