Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: CrackerTeg on June 24, 2009, 08:47:58 PM Finally, a proper profile and welcome. I'm curious on how you did that shift plate.
Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: ibcnunv on June 24, 2009, 08:50:21 PM Love the car... Can you post a picture of the head lights on....
Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: kSchwiggy on June 24, 2009, 09:02:11 PM thanks for the comments...
ibcnunv-- actually the ebay projectors are no longer on the car... i took them off, and completely took them apart/cut them up. the housings will be used to make my dual retrofit with AFS bixenons when i get to it. crackerteg-- the plate was a prototype and needs to be redone... but it is basically a thin sheet of aluminum cut to size with the hole cut out in the middle, lightly brushed with sandpaper.. and the center piece is a piece of plastic held up to the aluminum plate via a spring underneath Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: Mr Eazy on June 24, 2009, 10:24:32 PM Welcome to The Elite, the ride is looking Excellent. I love your polished intake. Keep up the awesome work.

Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: CrazyCreashunz on June 25, 2009, 11:30:38 AM Welcome Kai, enjoy your stay!
Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: kSchwiggy on June 25, 2009, 11:31:54 AM Fenix/Paulius.... i have a thread detailing the process in the Interior Styling section.. check it out!
blinx- the cluster is fully functional... i just have a few small bugs to work out and finish fiberglassing the bezel for the cluster, then im DONE! Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: Fenix on June 25, 2009, 11:36:47 AM I know of the pics in that thread, are they of the finished product?
Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: Paulius005 on June 25, 2009, 11:59:31 AM Quote from: "Fenix" I know of the pics in that thread, are they of the finished product? yup same statement/question Title: Re: Kschwiggys profile Post by: kSchwiggy on June 25, 2009, 12:36:42 PM nope... theyre pictures of my first attempt at the white/red color scheme (the red bar needs to be redone to look smoother), AND the numbering on the tachometer will be changed so that redline is 6800 rpm, not the s2000's 9k rpm. but the cluster hasnt changed looks since those pictures yet so they are the most current pics. once the bezel is complete... i will look into changing the face of the cluster, that is Stage 2 of the project.
