Sweet head unit!
reminds me of my EVGA precision x program on my computer lol

Since u tinted ur tails, u should have also done the one on the spoiler, or remove the spoiler all together.

But actually I was taking the seat out to fix the broken heated seat (wire burnt out)
So... cleaned the carpet and found $2.76

All that chrome is too much. Especially after the tint was added. Plasti-dipping the chrome surrounds and b-pillars will make it look more like 1 window vs. 3 pieces. Thats why i love the 3rd gens set-up. theres no chrome at all around the windows. Aegean Blue Pearl is my fav color of those years. My 03 CL-S6 was the same color.

Speedometer broke on my original cluster, so I decided to go with a base cluster because I like the black look better

love the progress.... couple of thing

the EBP Type S only exists in Canada and I believe only comes with tan leather which would make yours an ABP.... not that it matters, just an fyi

i really like what you did with the clock and AC controls reversing the colors

Did you put LED's into the TL-P cluster you swapped in? Curious to see how everything lights up at night with the new radio.

matter of taste, but i think if you plasti dipped the B pillars and chrome trim around the windows that would really give it an aggressive look (if you want to do something different in the future)

Look forward to seeing more progress

Thanks for the feedback! Hmmm never knew about the EBP only being in canada lol. Learn something new everyday.

And yup I put white LED's behind the speedo, rpms(but I put a blue LED at low RPMs), and gas and temp gauges but I left the odometer stock bulbs because I can see it better during the day. I'll try to get a picture of that later on.

As for the B pillars, I'm probably going to get rid of the chrome and go with plastidip. I liked the look for a while but I kinda miss the black lol

As you can see in my sig I pretty much had the same car as you haha so i keep checking on this thread every so often and it's really making me miss my 2nd gen ... def go plasti dip on all of the chrome. You won't regret it, and if you do.... then peel it off!
