What up Azine? I'm bored and new a project to work on over then weekend. Its pouring outside, I don't have work this weekend, and I even finished up my chemistry homework already. I'm bored as hell and its only 2:30 Friday. I was thinking about clearing out my headlights. Little hesitant due to the difficulty but I think I could do it. Anyone else have any other suggestions on car projects? Thank you for helping me keep my sanity haha.

 

paint ur grille black..

 

I already did. My bad I forgot to change my avatar. Just took care of it tho.

 

blackout ur headlights

 

LEDs...you can get some from Pep Boys if you have one near you.

 

Interior detailing? Change Oil? I'll be doing my brake job during this crazy california rainy weekend. Too many crazy drivers on the road during the rain.

 

Looks like headlights and LEDs it is. Thanks guys.

Shit, your tellin me. I was goin to head down to Santa Cruz and chill at my brothers spot this weekend but I didn't feel like dieing tryin to drive through the bay area and over HWY 17. I'm over this whole rain thing we got goin on.

 

buy my megan racing headers? its about a day job and i'm on the way to 17

 

pep boys really have LED bulbs? im thinkin of gettin just one or two so i dun wanna bother with orderin online

 

You could come down and do my brakes for me.

 

Haha hey I'd be down but honestly I don't know if you want me messin with your brakes. Only know the basics, changin pads and such. Always willing to learn tho.

 

Im gonna suede my headliner soon. You could do that. (a LOT of work tho)

 

Yea they have the 3022, 3175, and the 194s. They also have one that is like $20 and you buy it and you can hook it up to almost any connection. Pep Boys is where I got most of my LEDs for my car and I absolutely love them. Some people think that they have an HID look to them.

 

i got all my LED's from pep-boys.. just because its down the street and i dont have to worry about ordering them and shit.. i got LED rear blinkers too but now i need a flasher! =(

to the OP, paint your calipers!!.. they'll really stand out with the hyper-black wheels

 

I gotta say thats an original thought. Never heard of it before. How do you do it?

 

i like the calipers idea actually. and the headlights

 

Well first you will need about 3-4 yards of suede (whatever color you want, I have black int. so I am going all black) and an exacto knife, spray adhesive, and a lot of patience. Basically, take your headliner down, spray adhesive on the back of the suede as you apply it, and form it to your headliner. Its easier said than done by far, I did it on my buddy's 240SX for the headliner, and door panel inserts. Turned out great, but its VERY tedious. You have to take your time.

 

BTW I am also wrapping my pillars and visors, and coloring the dome light casing, handles, and all that black. ALL black interior FTW

 

any pics you feel like posting up

altho i bet i could prbly search lol... but how convenient for all of us if you just posted them here

 

I would if I was the one with the pics. He has them and went back to school. Lemme see if I can find anything.

 

The pic shows an H2 with a black suede headliner, and the link is a TL but the pics make it look horrible. The light is reflecting wierd. In real life, the black actually looks black. The pics make it look like a ghetto gray. lol

oh ya, now i remember reading it when he posted it up. it is tough making suede look as good on a picture as in real life tho haha. that does seem like a pretty good project to look into.

haha still cant get over ghetto gray

 

You should do a DIY on how to do it. I bet theres a bunch of people here that would like to know how.
