You do realize the tags are just things for searching?
Yeah but like seriously it's annoying does anyone else has posts with these tags? I don't think so. But if you all wanna be like 5 year olds and not tell me to my face fine. Just be cowards it's cool.
Hey does someone have a license plate relocate on a USDM bumper they can show? Im going to do mine today and would like to get ideas
Look at Argel's build thread

Oh yeah 4g rims
Those look a helluva lot better. Need to be cleaned more, though. Brake dust FTL.
Holy 4x4 rock climbing anyone!
That's rally car status, brah! Don't hate. lolQuote:

Got half door cladding? Lulz. Wheels look way better. Get rid of the old sets and never look back.

There's no continuity with the new wheels. The car flowed with the old wheels, now it doesn't.
needs grilles, cladding, and more low!!! or just have a fat chick sit on your hood
Lol yeah I'll clean it tomorrow
I'm dremeling out the grill to put mesh on it and i put the cladding on but the two front ones came off. I need stronger adhesive tape. Is there anyone better than 3m?
I've used 3m double sided tape on my vortex generator and it hasn't fallen off my car, i drive on the interstate everyday too. Make sure to clean the surface really good, I put some pressure on it for a little bit and then let go.
Surface needs to be very clean before install, also it would help to heat the adhesive once its on the cladding with a heat gun or blow dryer on HI.Quote:

It worked great on narrower clad most G's have.
i still dont get why anyone would want the stupid cladding.. i want to de clad mine lol....
Usually one wants something they don't have. I rather the GTZ/LS cladding over the ones I have.
if i get another galant ill drop it more but i just got these tein springs so no point in getting lower.Quote:

IMO for the time being I'm thinking ita only because of the ride height, and missing cladding. I know 3m supposedly has a an adhesion promoter you can get tooQuote:

Oh ok what was the name of the tape?
car looks really good man. Keep it up!
Ok I've seen that at advanced autoparts and it does work well so i'll get it
Those wheels make the car look soooo much better. Finish your projects & drop it, and then you will have a very clean looking G.
Yeah I plan too. I did the cladding that needs to be adjusted and just need to get the front and rear fenders. I'm also working on meshing out the stock grill and retrofitting the fogs. I have fender flares that need to be painted and idk how to put them on properly and I also have an obx header and a v6 tb that needs to go in but I'm waiting to get an Outlander IM. I just got a little license plate relocate kit and still contemplating on where to put it and white gauges that may want to put on since I like my blue lights already in there. In the future I'll drop it, I don't have the finances now tho.
Forgot to post this up. I did the license plate relocate at the corona bbq

I just need to sand where it was and fill it up, sand again, and repaint it. Since I used screws just to screw it in to the bumper, I'm wondering if I can get a piece of sheet metal and cut it the same size as the plate to give it backing and make holes in the plate and sheet metal in the center on both sides so i can screw it to the bumper like how lancers have it. Don't get me wrong i like this but it looks a little awkward and I ideally would like it on the side. The locator wouldn't fit there evenly and since it only mounts on from the top, it'd block the headlight or foglight. My theory is if the plate is screwed in the middle on the bumper, it may clear both
Looks fine where it is leave it alone!!!!
I'm with Dion, leave it where it is. Looks fine there.
Ok I'll leave it then and another question, I have the angel eyes with my retrofit and they don't work even when hooked up to power, so do I need some kind of relay? That's the only thing I can think of.
Did they come with transformers? What brand? And where did u get them from? yea the plate looks good where it is that's where I put mine but I didn't use no fancy bracket like you did, I saw u tinkering with that thing at corona

Should've just left it in the OEM location.

Whatever tickles your fancy d00d. Heads look pretty good though :023:

They came with a power supply that you had to plug them into from TRS but when I tested them against the signal wires they didn't work so that's why I think it needs some kind of relayQuote:

I think I did all of the above but I'll try it again...
Hey I haven't posted in a while but I took out my blue bulbs in the cladding and put these white ones in
http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...1347931771.jpg
I forgot the blue bulb for the mileage part of the odometer but I think it looks pretty sweet. I have the white bulb so i might swap it so there's continuity.
I also have the cladding on but for some reason the rear driver door one is damage and everytime the door is opened, the split part of the cladding slides in between the driver door and driver cladding. How can I fix that?
