So I figured I'd drop in an show off my progress. I made a thread with pix of my car in it before, and its in the link below. I don't feel like re-posting a lot of pix lol.

So here's were i'll start off. This is how my car sat back in January. I cleaned it up and took it out for a bit of a photoshoot... had nothing better to really do on a 60 degree day off in mid January.

I drove it like that for until February when I broke a wheel when I hit a hell of a pot hole on a side street in town. So cuz of a shortage of money I got rid of the 2 of the good 5 stars and the messed up one. I kept one to use as a spare tire. In their place are a set of Police Interceptor steel wheels (cheap fix til I can afford new wheels. That and personally I like the look).

Then I picked up these beauties on Amazon. Regular price was about $270 or something. I paid $113 with free shipping. Couldnt pass that up

I saw a lot of good things about the Depo projectors on here but the result blew me away. Great out put and a much sharper cutline than I expected. You guys and gals on this site really know your stuff

Then about 3 weeks ago I took off the spoiler to clean it and fell in love with the way it looks without it. So I plugged the holes and the spoiler hasnt been on since. Here's a few pix of the new headlights and spoiler delete.


Before (January 23):

After (March 6):

Also while I was taking the last 2 pictures... a little extra company showed up... (Will explain if anyones interested lol)

I took this one because I enjoy taking pix of my car below the flag. I just think its pretty cool

A couple nights ago me and a buddy of mine were scrolling thru this site and car across this picture...

I honestly cant remember for the life of me which member's sig I saw this in... but may I'd like to say I love the way it looks. So much so that I had to do my own. So i am very sorry if I kinda stole your paint job a bit... I did change it up a bit so it wasnt a complete rip off. This is how my car sits as of last night.

I shall post better pix tomorrow. Tell me what you guys and girls think of what all I've done. Thanks for takin the time to read all this =]

are those the mirros off of ebay??? I need to replace my passenger side and I was looking at that set?? can you post more pics of them and a little review as well as if they are power and how you installed them please?? otherwise i do like the interceptor wheels on there


EDIT: I think we always need to hear about run in's with the 5 0

 

[ForceRECON2010]

The mirrors were on it when I bought the car. I'm honestly tryin to find factory mirrors. The look good and all but they are quite a bit smaller than the regular mirrors. They are not power but the do fold... but they are spring loaded so they snap back pretty quick. and the seem to blot in the same way factory ones do. I've had them off once to paint them and they go right in the holes provided. Honestly... if your going for form over functionality... i'd say go for it. But i'd recommend just getting replacement mirror. these are just too small and make too big of a blind spot.

And ass for my run in with the 5 0. I wish there was a cool story behind it lol. But in all reality its my brother's car. He's a volunteer firefighter and has the car lit up like that for when he gets called out. That's the only time they are used unless were takin pix. He bought it just for the reason that the way its blacked out with the lights... it looks exactly like a state cop that runs around my town.

thanks for the tip, i will probably look for another factory one then, I do like that Charger, hopefully he has the Hemi in it is your bro allowed to run red and blues or just blu n whites??

 

[ForceRECON2010]

No problem. And yep its got the 5.7L Hemi. And he's allowed blue and white in the front, and blue and red in the rear. He's got about $800 total in lights in it.
