Thanks, d00d. The stickers are all PBA stickers and have been accumulating since 2004. I don't have the gall to stand in front of a bullet for a complete stranger, but the men in blue DO, so the least I can do is show my support for their heroic efforts.

the donations usually help more than a sticker does. trust me, cops don't really care if you have a pba or fop sticker on your car. you could almost get cited for blocking your line of sight with all of those.

Alright, today f00king SUCKED. It's HUMID AS ALL HELL outside, so as a result, the paint has been taking FOR-EVER and a day to flash off, even in the thinnest coats. AND I have the crappiest camera to use (separate rant) So, as a result, painting went hella slow. Anyway, here's the newest...

 

Got the new shoes in today, well at least the rubbers. Since our focus is on keeping the car quiet, I elected to get a set of Bridgestone Turanza Serenity's...I included the review from Tire Rack, and in as far as I currently know, there is no quieter tire available on the market. We'll find out soon!

 

 

Ok, next up...I did some headlight painting for a Maxima.org member...I will be putting the Audi LED strips in in a few days when the paint has fully cured. Let the crappy imagery stand as testament to the insane humidity I am battling.

 

 

Just finishing up with some other parts...after today, I have only a handful of items left to paint, and thank-god for that.

Tomorrow I should have some more exciting updates...today was slow...tomorrow I am going to getting some more parts polished and installed, including the dome light with teh neu INSANE 360k MCD LEDs...which I am hella excited for. Just a picture of a pending recess cut for the Maxima logo...that's all for now. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

thats is some great work there.. you my friend have talent. I respect your work!

 

[kurrupt 10+ year member]

any pics of the outside of the car?

Alright, some quick updates from Sunday. The new LED array is all hooked up and ready to go in. Let's not forget about thermal management!

 

 

 

BOOYAH! It's in, and I could not be happier with it. Even better than the last array. Now, the one problem I now have solved is NO REVERSE VOLTAGE!!! Before, the array would remain lit ever so slightly. Why? Backflow of electricity. But this time, I included diodes in the array and *BOOM*, when it's off, it's oof! Sorry, no pics yet, hopefully tomorrow as I need to borrow the work camera in order to get a good shot.

 

Alright, now these...took...for...EVER. All of these tiny-azz parts + the trio = ETERNITY. BUT, the one thing I am finding is that the more I am using the buffer, the better the shine I am getting...what do you think?

 

Ok, more painting tomorrow...

Wow, great install so far. I cannot even imagine how long that took you. Im looking forward to seeing the car finished!

[car_lost 10+ year member]

so I don't get it... what exactly did you do wrong that you would do it differently (the deadening)?

 

[elriley]

Do you order all of your LED's through mouser or do you get them from other places as well?
