mrg7243's 2001 galant build

[Corey2kG]

Wrinkle? I;m gonna tape off the letters n paint it black. Preferably flat black

[mrg7243]

It has a texured look too it, i did a glos black wrinkle on my cruise control on accident how i did it i dont know but it looked sicks, till it got chipped.
I would paint the whole thing, and take a dremel to the letters, just light enough to make it bare metal

[Corey2kG]

I don't have a dremel lol n how the hell do you do that? lol

[mrg7243]

ah okay, there is a special paint you buy, and then you bake it in the oven at like 200 for 2 hours

here is a honda how to.

[mrg7243]

If you get a sanding attachedment for your air die grinder(down at the bottom of the pict) it would do the same thing, a dremel is a die grinder, with its own name and huge price

[Corey2kG]

Your stealing my pics now lol. That dremel behind the tool box I killed all the bits boring out the washers for the axle mod lol. The disc that's on the die grinder I call it a cleaning cookie lol I used that to sand down the nubs left by cutting the fins. N I don't have the patience to do that lol.

Great bro keep it up. There is a lot of people that visit the site to see what are we doing and to get a idea of mod for them. So if we show them the potential of our G they could come and join TGC. By the way the paint texture is great i like it.

Painted some things today, here they are baing in the strong colorado sun

Shifter bezel, needs to be redon for the third time, as i shouldve primered it to fill in the scratches, oh well

and all the A/C vents, and third brake light housing.

[mrg7243]

Heres installed, i think i would like a darker black, as this seem more of a dark grey, its very subtle

[Corey2kG]

Looking good Matt

[mrg7243]

thanks corey, hopefully installing the rear brakes, this weekend but i have been saying that for two weeks now hahah. I need to stop putting it off

[mrg7243]

So i finally stopped slacking and did it. Heres what i was busy doing over the weekend rear disc conversion with R1 concepts drilled and slotted rotors all around, an ceramic pads.

Here is why i needed a brake job, the new pad is on the left


I havent owned the car long enough to take that much pad off, i have maybe put 8000 on it and most of is highway, maybe 1000 city.
