pssssshhhhhhtt
Its about time I made a thread.

Let me start by introducing myself.

My name's Joe and I live in Howell New Jersey. I've been on here since February 2012 which is exactly when I bought my car, Horace. Horace got his name from his previous owner, the elderly man in one of the pictures below. Yup that's right garage kept and grandpa driven from 11 miles all the way until 46k on the clock.

What I've done so far:

Installed new headunit
2 10" kicker comp vr subs with a kicker 1000.1 amp rated at 1200 watts
99+ washer fluid bottle
Home depot intake
New blower motor resistor
Aluminum coolant elbows
TInted LED lights
Gen V
Metal LIM Gaskets
ZZP headers
Air Bag suspension

Soon to come:

HS 1.9 roller rockers
Pulley drop

How long should I let the clear coats cure before sanding and buffing
 


Re: Jomamma's Red 97 GTP AKA Horace

Thanks guys.

And I put the tails in my car already. Ill take them out again tomorrow after class and sand them and buff them to a shine
 
Re: Jomamma's Red 97 GTP AKA Horace

Clean looking ride man. So how did you do the tails? Bought the LED Smoked ones then went through the process of VHT?
 


Re: Jomamma's Red 97 GTP AKA Horace

I think you're refering to the coolant overflow bottle? It relocates it to the front passenger strut tower

What exactly does that windshield washer bottle mod do?

The 97's and 98's had a stupid place for the windshield washer fluid bottle. Under the passenger side diagonal brace.

99+ was hidden in the passenger fender well. Its just an appearance mod

No, thats something different. I stole one of those too out of my old gp.
 


Re: Jomamma's Red 97 GTP AKA Horace

They're damn shiny now

They're far from perfect but a lot better than they were. Its a good 5-10 footer which is good for now.

I burned some of it off while buffing it with a power drill. I guess I could try and touch it up.
