What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks for posting. Could you let us know if you had to modify the steering shaft at all.

 

It was more about what I could get for a good cash price and the 08 and up were around 10k more to start. The roof on mine (clear plastic part) doesn't look the best but thats okay as it doesn't bother me. I am enjoying working on it, and having a car for once. Fun little project and I knew nothing about the corvette before buying this. Decided not to do the FF as the delivery was a year out from when I placed that order initially. AKA I still wouldn't start receiveing the parts until this upcoming December! Then finding the time to actually work on it given my schedule would be impossible.

 

Hahahaha!


But really is that a thing? who makes them?

 

Around 18 months ago people were all about the black sun visor screws. It really was a thing.

 

Yessir, made a new one out if solid bar stock about 1.5" shorter

 

Quick weekend campy trip out in the Rockies

 

Went out for mouse bait stations, came home with 4 new tacomas!

 

Upgraded my seat covers to the Rough Country neoprene covers. They fit great and look good.

 

one solution was a black permanent ink marker.

I think one that replaced the screws with black ones had them rust later.

 

Apparently I needed another ridiculous project today.

 

Got the Spiker hood struts installed. 7'' over the prop rod height. It's a shame the trucks don't come from the factory this way...

 

@Taco Limited Icon was recommended and I couldn’t be happier since I added bumpers , winch, sliders , etc . I went inside of 4wheel wheel parts store near me to see the difference in them believe me when I tell u u get what u pay for.

 

I put door sill covers on.

 

Picked up Friday 10/14. Put AVS in channel window visors on. Attempted to install Weathertech hood deflector but was damaged. Installed rexing dash cam and rear facing camera. Ordered oem LED bed lights. Washed. Ordered garnish for TRD pro grill. Finding bracket to use with grill and my oem front camera. Installed Miller stainless steel cat shield. Put in bed mat.

 

I got my Fox 2.0 kit installed yesterday, set to level no lift in the rear. I'm super happy with it, the ride quality is great, much firmer feel in a good way.

 

Not today, but recently added a topper from line-x. So far I'm pretty happy with it. Im gonna order some leds from @mattgecko and hope I can get those hooked up the way I like. Theres over 40 ft² of space on top of the roof, and is big enough to hold a 12' ladder and a full sheet of OSB/plywood.

I have a post out wondering if anyone knows the size of the hardware that holds the thule rails to the shell...I would like to add some eye nuts to the inside using the rails hardware. So if anyone knows what size the bolt is, that'd be awesome.

Any other upgrades I should consider for the inside now that there is more space? I have tools that fill up the entire bed of the truck during my week. Camping and other adventures I have to unload all my tools and then load up my gear.

Always a work in progress...

 

Do it yourself. Unscrew the damn screw, clean the head of the screw. Then, hit it with some matte black paint. Let it dry and screw the visor back in. Now your OCD will calm down.

-You're welcome!

 

Simple wash and wax.
