new guy questions

alright im the new guy around here, i just bought a 2003 cavy arival blue. and now i have a few questions about some mods i heard of,

first is how to make the climite control nobs clear. a buddy told me to just pull them off and take the rubber cover off and put them back on and tehre clear. if anyone has done this, do you have to distroy the covers to get the rubber off.

second i read on cardomine about a guy that mad a mesh grill out of a rain gutter cover, if i do this will it cause problems with my air intake, if it doesnt does anyone know the dimentions to get.

also if anyone knows some easy and cheep mods that can be done to the interier please leave them. thanks again, i look forword to posting again. :bigthumb:

come on someone has to know something

I've never heard of rain-gutter cover, but mesh is pretty inexpensive. you can buy a roll of steel mesh at your local home-depot or lowes.

i don't know about the knobs, but i know u can buy colored ones, maybe to go w/ the theme of your car...

like what sweetwhiteCAV said, never heard of using gutter mesh for grills, but it would work, no it wouldn't affect the air intake, and for the dimensions, just measure it yourself.

cheap interior mods: neon lights, paint the dash, fuzzy dice. lol, j/p.

i have done the clear knob thing on my car. I also painted them blue later but its looks good clear also.n But as far as the rubber boot yeah its pretty much tears em up pretty good.

what'd u use to paint them?

you use transparent paint, you can find it at wallmart
