I like the black/blue look, I need to blacken my center console

[99 galant]

thanks, see alot of people hated the blue when you look at my other thread (i only made this one bcuz i couldnt change the title of the other, so Jay locked it) anyways, i didnt change it just bcuz people hated it. i have alot more work im doing and its going to take time, plus i have to wait for shipping, shipments (ACE hardware) and stuff like that, so its basically a spring/summer project. hoping it will last, i only installed those to get the pics. they only got 2 coats of paint, but going to do 2-3 more each. so im not rushing it just wanted to see how it looked and thought id share

There you go dude!!! Blue/Tan throw up! Black/Blue, I like it!! Do those two patterns and it will look good dude! If you keep the blue, get rid of the tan.

It's looking quite a bit better... nice work.

[99 galant]

thanks Ray and TJ, the only trouble is going to be:
the head liner (might just leave that alone)
the door pannels, ill give it a shot one day
the dash, some time this summer
seats, when cash flow is better
and the pillers, as much as i can
oh and the carpet, once this damn leak if fixed

[Ruslik]

did u use the can for the console or dye??

[99 galant]

can, i used Krylon Fusion, its for plastic

the arm rest you need to dye the rubber or replace it, look for the other black interior post, he did alot more work then me, we would know better for the arm rest, something i need to do next

Great work so far...keep it up!

Keep the stock wheels and get a set of wide tires instead. Sell your 18" and use the money toward other things (body kit, drop, etc.).

what do you actually need for a drop tho? just springs or..

You're gonna need a set of struts as well (like KYB GR2 or AGX).

[99 galant]

im selling the old 18's and i just bought new 18's they should be in by the latest of next wednesday

im throwing brand new winter tires on the 16's before next winter

The black looks 10X better than the beige did. I Agree that black tints would also be much more effective.

[99 galant]

i might keep the blue tho, i have another thing up my sleve later on

if that doesnt go threw, ill just buy black tint. i bought 2 more rolls of blue for $5 each. they were on sale so i can finish my back window. the first 3 rolls i bought were like $15 each lol

thanks tho, i knew alot hated the blue like i said before, but i wasnt done yet and im not

[bellefontaine187]

there you go man!!!!!!! shit man, that actually looks dope bro.........i couldnt picture it in my head but now i see and i like bro. damn that oughta shut everyone up right! lol keep it up. i am actually liking the altezzaz too. im probly going to go jdm tails but the jdm tails are almost played out now so i might just say fuck it and black out my stock tails. anywyas peace homie.

[99 galant]

thanks, just wait til i finish all the plans i have. time and tons of it til im done. im not rushing. i did before but the black pieces are only installed temp. i need to do more coats of paint, this is going to be something i can be proud of

heres a thought for everyone: this time last year i had my saab and had to change the battery. didnt know what i was doing + my mom was freaking out. now i just go to the G and try something, if i start to muff up i got the G family to back me up. i take the chances now so this car is not just my work but the G's family work too thanks everyone who has helped me and dealt with my dumb ass questions at first

[beam514]

yea that black and blue looks pretty good actually



hey for the part circled in red.. how'd you get that out? it seems like the cigarette lighter hole thing is what prevents me from removing that piece cause the wires can't be unplugged

[99 galant]

wow. i just read threw this again and i jsut came up with a realllly good idea. marking it down so i dont forget, but doing it in a way that no one knows :D

thanks beam
