new pics of my car

[tiFreak]

washed my ti and took some new pictures, feel free to flame, I'll just ignore you anyways


(yes, it's blurry, I am not a photographer)




this one would have been great if my neighbors house and boat wasn't there

...and some more

i think your car would look really good with blacked out stock grills!

[tiFreak]

I have been thinking about blacking out my grill, they would go good with the rims I'm planning on getting, 16" flat black contour reps

here's another pic I just finished editing, I stole the idea from my haynes manual cover shhh, don't tell them

[thesk8nmidget]

do you have the stock grill inserts?

[tiFreak]

yeah behind the mesh, I used zip ties to hold the mesh on, and duct tape to hold my turn signals on

[thesk8nmidget]

dude i swear it would look so much better if you took the mesh off and then painted the surrounds black.

sand them down and get black primer and then satin or semi gloss black paint!

[tiFreak]

well, the screws on the plastic panel above the grills are stripped so I need to get them out before I can get the grills out, I have a can of black primer I bought to paint the contours so I just need a damaged screw remover

[thesk8nmidget]

oh that sucks! well those arent that tight so you may be able to use pliers. are they the plastic screws that are stripped or the two metal ones?

one of my plastic ones were stripped so i used a small flat tip and it got it out just fine

[tiFreak]

the plastic ones were stripped so I used pliers to get them out, it's just the metal ones that are stuck, I think I might just cut the slats out of the grill, put the mesh in, then spray the whole thing black, I like the mesh better than the slats

[thesk8nmidget]

just take out the mesh and paint it black then zip tie it back on. it will be harder to see the zip ties if the mesh is black.

or you can remove the whole grill then pop off the slats the right way and paint the mesh then install it so you cant see the zip ties

[tiFreak]

oh, they pop off? that makes it a little easier, I just assumed it was one solid piece

[thesk8nmidget]

yeah its pretty simple but they are tight so be careful. the tabs will break if you pull to hard

[jgrimm]

Anybody got any soya sauce?

Sorry Dude, I'm just not a big fan of the interior, grills, mesh, corners or headlights. I think instead of buying more Doo-Dads for your car, next mod should be restoring your plastic side skirts. I my opinion, that would make a bigger inpact then more underglow.

+1 for getting rid of the mesh.
Go back to the inserts and go with black. I didn't sand mine i just put black primer and then black spray paint. I like the last pic though.
