pt. 1 mods done, thanks for all the help

[willmeyer]

I spend a lot of time on another forum (ahem), but I lurk here, and have learned a ton over the months from all of you. So thanks for that.

Wanted to share the result; computer, audio, and lots of appearance mods. Performance mods will come once warranty's up. Here are some highlight pics.

Holy s***! That looks nice.

Very nice man. If the quality of performance mods matches the quality of these mods, it will be one hell of an ms3. Keep us updated.

The center console looks cool. I'm also an audio guy too, but don't want to install my system yet sine it will be hard to hide them wires that goes to the second battery if I ever have to take it to the dealer. But about the power mods, I think it's best to mod now under warranty so if something goes bad put everything back together and get it fix. If you wait after warranty and s... happens then you're on your own. Don't you think? Car looks nice.

That's an interesting perspective -- never thought about it that way. I guess that makes sense?

Thanks for the comments all, btw.

Looks really good, I really want to do a carputer. I just don't really have the time.

Yeah I debated it for a while, but then asked myself when the last time was that I needed a spare tire -- its been like 15 years. Worst case I have roadside, we'll see how it goes ;-)
