What the IM or the grill?

[Redhaze]

Was referring to the IM, but i guess you could say both.

[Black8GV6]

For an Outlander IM, try http://www.partshotlines.com/ , you can search a bunch of junkyards online

[JDyal]

I do wanna get that IM but I'd have more piece of mind having a picture so I know what I'm getting

Edit:

I went to that website and sent an email to see how much shipping is since it's in Maine. Hopefully it's intact and they actually have it. The one guy buy me wants 250 for it....wow. Is there anymore websites I can find it? I found a post here with some but lost the links

WOAH if that's the case I'll get that one. Thanks alot bro

Edit: Ok so I guess it's still to early to call WA for the $75 one but I called the Alabama one for $100 and he said $15 ship. I have work at one and he's an hour behind anyway. So I'll call WA later at 4 or maybe before I go to work and if they have it with cheaper shipping then I'll go with them but this $115 is looking mighty fine.

I put in the shifter trim but after I painted my dome light and tried to put it back in, a fuse must have blew since it and the radio isn't working



I'm working and I see a sports Benz outside and notice that stock, it has the reverse strip slightly tinted and when I tinted my tails it was too dark...so now I'm wondering if i should do the reverse and tint just the white part slightly and see how it looks....hmmmm has anyone done this?

[Redhaze]

No don't tint the white...people leave it white for more than just looks...reverse lights are also used to light up behind you when it's dark.. To aid you and warn others with the foreground light

Ok I won't then I think I'll wrap the red with light tint or maybe red because when I took the tint off I appreciated the look. It has an unsightly crack which I wanna cover somehow

[Superstar]

not bad

[JDyal]

What's not bad?

[JDyal]

So about the whole grill conumdrum, I'm still contimplating on cutting the nose off and converting a 99-01 USDM grill to a zenki like the tut on here, OR cutting off the brackets on the 8gb grill and putting mesh behind it...ANYWAYS I sold my altezzas for cheap since there were scratches on it from taking the tint off and the guy was also interested in my spare bumper that I didn't use. When I took it out, I saw some mesh in my garage and was like WOW I wonder where my dad got it from because it looked good and was also very durable and not cheap. I'd like some opinions on to convert to 99-01 or put mesh on my 8gb. Thanks guys, it's a tough decision

[Skyforger]

I personally like the 8Gb front end.

It's your car at the end of the day.

[JDyal]

True true, I like the 8gb front end too since it's different and not as many ppl have this as the 99-01. The only reason why I'm undecisive is because I saw the tut on here to convert that grill the to zenki one and fell in love espcially with G-Spots grill

Then do it

[JDyal]

I've decided to keep the 8gb grill and do the mesh as it will still not be bad and eventually put the ralliart emblem on it

Cut the ones off your original 2 piece grill set with a dremel and custom fit them to the new grill with epoxy or super glue. Did this with my JDM grill and worked great
