a months worth of mods are finally complete...
Pics below of: Gauge Pak, Clear Corners, and final FMIC detail work...
GP:
Guage Pod is in and looking good. Had a Matte-Satin finish applied to it (and then I lacquered it) Last week, as previously posted, I had the 'dimples' put onto the face of the pod itself. Only thing left is the 'Raffi emblem' and that will be done this week. If you've not installed yours, you might consider using TTEleven's technique of screwing the pod to the surrounding enclosure.. I did mine like that today and it is on there solid. I did not use the aluminum mounting/support pieces that came with it either... works great!

You can see some underlighting here.. Steve Schwing found the little 3-LED cluster for me...

Clear Corners... look great (IMO)... a lot of effort, but much easier with MyBlueTT's install instructions!

FMIC.. did this project a week ago, but now I have everything all dialed in and the front end is back on. Yesterday, I dremeled the OEM engine covers that needed it and they are all back on.

WOW! That was a lot of work and it pretty much consumed 4 complete days (12+ hours x 4). I feel good about it though. Today, I Zaino'd the entire car and then went out to take pics. Unfortunately, the camera setting were off and none of them came out. Oh well.. next time.
Hi-res of thes pics and many more can me found in my Fotki Album.
