What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

NICE!
I'm picking up my MGM DC/LB SR5 tomorrow!
Also noted your G35... mine is a 2003 G35.

 

What does the flow accelerator do? Anything noticeable?

 

I did. 7600 NEX installed. I changed the tweeters first and there was a nice change. Then I put in the HU and all new Hertz speakers as well as deadening in the doors. I'm very happy with the sound system now.

 

Kentuckian. Welcome. Bowling Green area?

 

PlastiDip fender flares to matte black. Applied several coats to increase durability. Lines were perfect after peeling off the overage. I like the look of the OR and Pro flares so this was my fix.

 

The top plate came with the tow hook and the holes were threaded, the middle plate I had made at a local machine shop as a spacer. If you’re looking for a suggestion get the spacer made up and just use a thick washer and a nut to fasten the bolts. I cut away some of the plastic which really wasn’t that difficult there was a bolt through the plastic which was removed. The hole was the correct diameter for the bolts I used so only one additional hole for each hook had to be drilled in the frame. The whole process was really quite simple so don’t get discouraged. I used 10.9 grade bolts as the threaded holes were metric. If you’re using SAE bolts use grade 8

 

Over the moon excited with this awning and very happy!
The brackets are from Rago fabrication.
The awning is the OVS 270LT

 

Also funny decal on my water tank

 

I need more coffee......I looked at that first picture and thought to myself, who the hell mounts a mudflap in front of the tire?......

 

got more starbucks

 

Washed, clay bar'd, maguire fast finish, then butter wet wax. Used 303 on the bed cover and fender flares.

 

Headlights getting upgrades. New projectors, halos, side markers, etc. Got some light output pics.
Halos done.


Low beam


Will have 4 high beams. 1st pic is main projector high beam.

This next high beam projector will overlap the main projector for more distance.


More pics to follow as assembly continues.

 

Has anyone found a crystal overlay that actually works for the factory stereo? I’ve seen a few on Amazon, but the feedback is poor. Doesn’t lay flat, air bubbles that never go away and so on. Just looking to keep the dust scratches to a minimum.

 

Installed coverkings. Pretty nice the passenger side could be a bit tighter

 

check out screen protech, high quality and they make one for the steering wheel panel as well

 

With 5.29’s and a Magnuson on the way, I wanted to let things breath a bit better.

I spoke with the techies at Magnuson and the suggested simply a freer breathing muffler. Going to a 3” exhaust wouldn’t add much, in fact, it would shift some of the torque curve higher in the rpm band where I don’t want it.

Don’t shoot me if you don’t agree, that’s what they said.

So I got a Magnaflow at the suggestion of a local shop and I like it. Also, this is heavier than normal acceleration but in no way smashed to the floor. From seat of the pants I think it also woke up the truck a bit. The “grunt” is gone on the highway by fourth- fifth gear so it’s great for when I tow.

Thank you!

 

Took the tape off of the B pillars. Tires are coming.

 

That actually looks good without the tape on the B pillars. Not bad at all

 

Been a busy weekend, family came up to help us unload the POD. MIL drove her new to her ‘16 Sport up. She’s gonna get a tune and now she wants a lift.
Ordered the Pro Grill!
