Interior mods for My new CL... Aluminum pedals!

Here's what I have done already:

- Supercomputers aluminum pedals with rubber inserts and deadpedal.
- Aluminum healguard with custom engraving.

Next in line is:
- Real brushed Aluminum flat dash kit
- Woodgrain steering wheel custom painted silver.
- Aluminum ball shift knob and shift boot liike this:


Pics of the interior and pedals. Really great mod, every car should have these, they feel and look awesome, and are very OEM like.

funny, they look whiter than my last 2001 CL, but maybe its in my head. Also, I had no light in the grage at the time of the pics, so I left the increased the amount of light alowed into the camera to compensate.

i think you just told him for me. lol. it was actually pretty easy to drive that 6speed. the way everyone talksabout the clutch, i was thinking it would be more like an unsprung assembly.

sucker, lol.

Couldn't take it any longer, so I threw these servos I had layin around. handles much better with the 235/40/18 tires, these 18" Chrome Servos with tires weigh just about the same as the stockies! I know, i know, drop it, after winter.

Mclaren, alwasy the first one to poke fun at the new whip. believe it or not, the ride home in your care that day i sold mine made me realize how much I love the CL, after sitting in the passenger seat.

Thats the camera effect, once again, playing with the timing.

Yes, we make that same wheel for the 1st Gen CL, here's a sample, but on a white car, perfect fit, part number and specs were developped specifically for the 1st Gen CL:

For some reason, the rear wheels look slightly bull-frogged. Could just be the angle, I guess. Looks real good, Rondy.

you noticed, actually, those are the wheels off my sister's 2005 TL, they have a 42mm offset, so they kinda poke out on my car. I couldn't help it, ridin stock wheels and height was killin me. They won't stay on when I drop her tho.

I'm working on it. I had a fucked up dream tho, now that you bring it up...

I was driving my sisters 05 Auto TL, and it turned into a 6MT, then I was hearing all these sounds like grinding, thinking I was glad I didn't get the TL. Next thing you know the clutch pedal just fell off onto the floor. I was reraching down to pick it up while rolling and I crashed into a really hot chick in a Beemer in front of me. She was cool with it tho and gave me her number to call her. Lol, I wish.

I'm getting the H&R Sport that Niteqwill has, but I think I'm going to stick with OEM shocks. Not sure if the Aftermarket shocks would be worth it.
I did come across this, I wonder if this would be worth the price:

Hey Rondy,
You're bound to change your OEM shocks sooner or later after you drop your car, so why do things twice .. JUst get the Bilstein shocks. That's what Nitequill and I have in our cars (trusted brand, and lifetime warranty... can't beat that).

enjoy

Very true, since you'll have access to your shocks you might as well change them, because the OEM's will wear out faster with the lowering springs. I wish I could have done that when I put in my springs but I couldnt afford it at the time, and now Im going to have to go through the process all over again
