Let's give this a little update.

This was the first time I've ever attempted this and it had been about 10 years since I had worked with fiberglass.







That's it for now.

Big 3 upgrade.

Sandblasted battery tray and sprayed with spray on bedliner.


I don't have a pic of it, but I also got my exhaust ran like this. I noticed a power increase.

Chemical Guys is the ****! This is a 4-5 hour detail job. It took out a lot of scratches, imperfections, and factory orange peal.



Mint condition 5sp console!

Holt **** where did the time go? Well lemme throw out some updates...
Carpet added


Bravada cluster with the Alero needles


Not many of these flying around anymore


I'm no longer running the Coys anymore because their wheels are pieces of **** and I'll never buy anything from that company again. But I did make these center caps on my 3d printer.


I also printed off a bezel that snaps into my center console to allow for a leather boot.

Finally last year it went to the body shop for a full respray.





Similar to the C-5's, but with a polished lip instead of a machined cleared lip.




I had them shave the antenna, hood squirters, roof rack holes, 3rd brake light, tailgate keyhole, license plate light holes, and the spare tire hole. Then they painted the handles, added hood struts, and re sprayed everything. I'm very happy with how it turned out. For some reason I don't have pics of it, but I've also converted to factory power windows and locks including the power door panels as well as adding a new head unit.

This is one GORGEOUS 2 door sir!
-Well done on the 5.7 swap, looks like a clean job.
-I'm a sucker for a clean interior, so MAD PROPS on the interior of this thing! Where did the chrome interior pieces come from? I love subtle accents like that.
-I'm also a sucker for stereo subwoofer systems that actually look like they're MEANT to be in the vehicle!
-The 3D printed center caps and console bezel, fantastic job sir
Did you used ABS for them? (I hope)
-That paint job looks AMAZING!
If you're ever in the market to sell this thing, seriously, send me a message, I may be willing to take the drive to Kentucky to take that beauty off your hands
