Finally Finished 2 Projects!!!

Okay so ive had my headliner done for a while but i just got around to taking pictures and i just finished the projectors last weekend. Here they go, I think i overexposed the pictures of the headliner cuz its black suede and looks a lil lighter in the pics but it still looks good. Criticism is accepted








Enjoy

Nice stuff. When I had my 6000k's on along with my friend's 4300k in projectors, his were brighter than mine. I don't know how you survive with 8000k HIDs though.

Those projectors are dope. I don't know about the headliner though from the pics it looks bad, but you like it and that is all that matters.

very nice work on the projectors, that black on black in the head lights looks mean as hell. Like it. Now the suede, not likeing it at all from what i see in the pics. Im sure its a lil better in person because flash makes things look brighter then they actually are. Seems like you did a decent job with the suede atleast if anything. Suede not my taste though for my Tl's style.

Have you done any interior work before this? How hard is it for a first timer? Can you post up some more details of the process or a DIY

my MAF is fine...i let james wit the white max drive my car....he said its a valve body problem and nothing to do wit my MAF sensor. im gonna get it looked at, at a nissan dealership.

my MAF keeps blowing b/c i have this powerful stainless steel filter thats sucks in so much air. im the only max with it. i need to get my ecu reprogrammed so it can take that much air.

im mad b/c i took my governor off...but i have a fuel cut off point at 150..mad as shiznik
