Should be painted tonight, ready for install along with the trunk this weekend. Getting ready to move apartments, so the car will be neglected this week
The nightmare part is the wiring harness is completely different on the facelift trunk than the NA trunk. The mechanical parts are different too, so they don't swap over. Every wire has to be spliced, and even still I don't know if it'll be functional
can u take some pics for us? im curious to see wat wiring nightmare you are talking about....i only had to swap two wires and that is because i had pre-facelift car.....MY1998. Nice purchases mate!!
i'll agree with you on the rears, but the fronts are much smaller than 15mm, they have to be. My 10mm's that i have at my moms house are larger than the fronts that are on the car now.
finished the trunk today. maybelle the dog chillin
Rear is just about done. The light bar on the trunk is a shade silver off, the material isn't holding the paint very well and it came out like that. The bumper and trunk matched perfectly.
everything is done except tails, which are stored away and I may wait to install them.
Thanks for the opinions, but I'm definitely not changing a thing. It sounds absolutely amazing as-is, so it'll stay that way. I may do something with the tip, we'll see.
