yeah i love these shoes... they are discontinued and very difficult to find now!!! even if you do find them they are used or in some guys collection!

lol thanks!!! i almost wanted to leave that overly large GUNATICS decal on the back window... but i need as little cop attention as possible!!!

[QUOTE=stupidchicken03;3125420]How was doin the center console swap?[/QUOTE]

it wasn't too bad... in my mind it was going to be easier than it really was but it still didnt cause me too much trouble... are you thinking about doing it? if so hit me up and i can get you a parts list of the things you will need... there are hidden things that you dont think will be an issue but come up during the swap!

[QUOTE=perry753;3125435]hardcore.[/QUOTE]

Thanks man!!!

[QUOTE=Gibz;3125523]I remember seeing this car at quickly in 2010 when it was multiple colors.. Very nicely done and good job!![/QUOTE]

Quickly? what is quickly?

[QUOTE=code3suby;3125550]looks mean as hell! even with the pink![/QUOTE]

yeah well unfortunately all the pink was a little much as far as cop attention! it made the car stand out above all the rest but the cops noticed it to!

i had a cop even say once
Officer: you know why i pulled you over?
Me: no officer
Officer: Your exhaust is too loud! and quite frankly you stood out!
:faint:
what a D**K

stupidchicken03 09-01-2011 10:08 AM

and lastly something that i cannot seem to find anywhere... you need to have a 2005-2007 radio bracket!


the problems i ran into were...
-the stereo bracket
-the bracket to the center console... #14 second set! it is different for 05-07
-and i had an 05 sti centerconsole... so the hvac issue... i had #13 set 2 and it was out of an sti well since the STI auto HVAC just clips in and the manual HVAC screws in there are clips that go in and allow you to screw the Manual HVAC into those clips!

other than that it was just takin it all apart! that was the hardest part.
