What have you done to your P5 today?

lol sorry man. It was literally a split second decision. I called JSC speed and cancelled my order for the rear strut bar today. Decided I need to stop spending on the car so much. Oh and just so you guys know, GT Spec will be getting a Rear Strut Bar for the P5 in by the end of the month. Contact one of their vendors (list found on their website) to preorder it and lock it in. It cost me 167 shipped but I had to back out. Just figured I'd give you guys the info.
 
Anyone that has Forcefed's dual gauge radio surround or even a single din gauge mount, What did you use to install your actual head unit in that space? My head unit fits directly through the hole and it seems like there should be an install kit there for it. Anyone have any ideas?

I dunno why but I'm not so much a fan of those tails, maybe if I saw them on a car other than black I would have a different opinion, but they just seem too "clear" to me, and look too much like Altezza-style lights even though they really aren't. Has anyone tried to tint these slightly with Niteshade? I think that would possibly improve the look of the lights drastically.
 
i agree to doing some niteshades, then the spider LED's in the brakelights!!
 
yea i would nightshade everything except the little circles where the lights are, should make it look tons better

but today i washed my car and took pics of it with my caramel stockers on....prepare yourself lol

Today I sanded and repainted the side skirts base coat clear coat, as well as spot painting some scratches on the door posts where the door had gotten closed on the seat belts. I am very happy with the results.

Pat.

Looks good (I am biased though, see below) and needs moar chrome turn signal bulbs and blue batmobile overlays

Here are the same lights on my classic red with some overlays to help you out. lol A lot of people don't like them but I do, guess that's what matters. And I have seen some clear alteezas tinted on ebay the last few days.

Had to purchase a new head unit cause mine seemingly crapped out on me. Tried hooking it up directly to the battery as well to see if maybe I messed up some wiring on the inside and it still didn't work. So Blaupunkt Bahamas MP46 number three is on its way. First one got stolen.
 
You should buy my 6-disc factory radio. ;)

Looks better, but I think it would look much better if the whole exterior was tinted instead of the white sphere areas.

Also, you need the black valance to complement those. ;)
 
Lol I actually just sold my factory radio but I wouldn't be able to use the factory one even if I wanted to. I now have a single din setup due to the gauge pods built into the radio surround piece. ForceFed does some amazing work.
 
looked at it and cried. Not running. Needs a damn alternator and the damn tint removed from the passeneger and drivers side cause of the b**** ass police
