YOU PAINTED THE NEEDLES ON YOUR GUAGES!!!

How did you manage that?! I'm scared to put in indiglo guages for fear of screwing up the needles and you painted them!!. Dang!

Anyway, custom stuff I got some of, but homemade stuff, ummm not much, lets see.... I armoralled the engine bay, trunk, cabin, and outside with the same bottle so all the black in the car matches I would like to paint the vents, shifter, e-brake, and door controls red, but just havn't gone and got the stuff to do it yet. I got mudguards, a spoiler, rims, and a stereo that are all added on, plus I removed the front splashguard cuz it scraped all the curbs I pulled up to. I got a DAC dc sports intake. But homemade, no, I do not think so, just a rubber band that goes around the E-brake

Still working on a lower lip, but this is not looking like it should.

Then I painted my own valve cover

I made my own cold air intake, well not really but close enough, and I'm thinking on painting my valve cover.
