a little tip put the fabric down first ( no glue) and run the roller around it then use those creases as a mark to cut. cut it a little outside it and then spray glue down while MAKING SURE its smooth. I have a few creases in the fabric which make me mad, but oh well.

Hope you enjoyed. Now I have to find a few more projects I can get into.

Stay tuned !!

Ok, so here is what you do:

1. Google search POR15. Hot rod guys use it, it saps moisture out of metal, means "Paint Over Rust."
2. Poncho is another word for Pontiac which is what you have a few of.

I am just in awe here...facepalm.com x10 + Texa$

I like the go fast kind not the drag my bumper kind.

Cute^

I think you were trying to be the "one up" guy in this thread where you know whats best.BUT if you bothered to read what I had said earlier pertaining to it being temporary (which should have been the end of it) then you would eat those words. So now the face palm backfires on you sir.

^ the orginization with one goal in mind: returning the favor!
ps its an orginization so you know its better...

I guess I'm just old-school or something, jaded from the many years I spent wrenching on old iron and writing about them along the way.

P.S. I do like the door panel welting stuff. Good quality idea for those of us with separating door panels. The tool tip was trick too, never would have thought that would have worked.

Pontiac in the beginning did have the slang term "indian"

and

They are known as Poncho's; I have no idea why, but hey... it was a good theory lol

Good job on the build dude, keep it up!

I wasnt being a jerk and I dont demand people to kiss my ***, really. I dont expect it or anything. I can take criticism well, and use it when I learn something I hadnt known before.

I WAS NOT making an offensive remark and I made sure I worded it to where everybody would know I was not meaning it offensively.

I have heard the "Indian" term thrown around due to their once symbol being an indian. Which is where today they have the arrow head. But Like i said in my recolection I HAD NEVER HEARD THEM BEING CALLED PONCHOS, thats not to say they arent I was just stating that if I had heard that its not common enough for me to remember such a thing.

I did not mean for it to sound like I was being an ***, ha. I try to keep things light hearted, but thats pretty hard to do in type. Sorry if you took offense ( as I am man enough to apologize in those JUST IN CASE moments )

But I do not expect people to kiss my *** like I said, but every body giving respect should get respect thats all I feel. (not saying anyone is disrespecting me)

Maybe I read the whole thing wrong, but if it was constructive criticism, thank you for that. I do enjoy having ideas bounced around, and fully expect it.

Back to the car now, there will be updates today!

This is what I was working with

Im going to do something with the dome light, not sure what though.

Here it is outside the car. Waiting for its big moment.

Visors. I may end up swapping some from another vehicle if I can find some I just cant live without...

The weapons.

These arent that glossy, the flash again being an over achiever.

and again

Headliner back in with visors.

Annnnd a wider shot.

Material used:
-Vinyl and Fabric Paint
-Plastic Paint

Cost:
$ 10 approx.

Welp. Thats all for this update. Im off to find my next project !

good call on checking the craft store though.

im considering finding a way to remove the dome light in my coupe, since ive got the map lights in the front where my sunroof controls are. but then id have to recover it with the same fabric, and make it look nice.

i dont see the point in two separate interior lights on the ceiling.

nice work though, im still wanting help with the paint and stuff on the roof of my car.

there is no trap. only free candy.

Yeah I see that. I would like to get something more oem "black" which is more like a charcoal then black. Tell me how that trim paint stuff works out.

sweet pete, hope you change your mind on selling it. I've regretted it every time I got rid of my 240(I have had four).

Its not going anywhere. No worries, I get in my moods (not frustrated with the car) but I quickly retreat the idea.

NIGGA I TOLD YOU IT WAS BRACELET STUFF. good call on checking the craft store though. im considering finding a way to remove the dome light in my coupe, since ive got the map lights in the front where my sunroof controls are. but then id have to recover it with the same fabric, and make it look nice. i dont see the point in two separate interior lights on the ceiling. nice work though, im still wanting help with the paint and stuff on the roof of my car.

Ha yeah. Good call on that. It didnt look like the right size, but turns out it was near perfect.
In your case I would do away with the dome light, maybe. I plan on getting a different looking kind maybe? or figure out a way to update it somehow.
I could help you recover your headliner if you buy the fabric. We can just tack in something over the hole before we cover it.

No worries Friday I will be down there, and Im staying in crosslanes till saturday night or sunday morning so like you can give me your number and I can swing by or we could just do it another time. Let me know.

nice work! its funny, i just dyed my headliner and visors as well. not as dark as yours, but im working on the same stuff

Haha 2 people now working on the same thing at the same time. Weird. What color did you go with ? Mine isnt all that dark in the pics, but in person it looks nice. Its a good shade.

next time youre online ill IM you my phone to save. and you better save it.

will do I have some SEM satin black on order

tooltopia.com
SEM Paints (SEM15243) Color Coat - Satin Black
Part#: SEM15243
Manufacturer Part#: annv-pb
(Qty: 2 x $11.13)
Discounted Item. You Paid: $10.02

Twice the price of normal spray paint but everything I've read people rave about it so I'll see how good it actually is. I tried the krylon fusion in my spec v its a decent match but still has a little sheen to it so I'll see how this works and take a side by side comparison pic.

not sure yet, i dont get next weeks work schedule (saturda-friday) til thursday. ill let you know which day im off.

How did it work? And how did it feel to the touch after you did it?

Ok just let me know as soon as you find out.

This how it started. As you can see the passenger side is already clean.

Another shot of the mess.

After removing the seat I scrubbed away.

And here it is after some reassembly.

I used to work at a car lot where I was the salesmen, and detailed. Im pretty good at it. I didnt bother cleaning real well as I know its just going to get dirty again here soon.

2001 Ls1 less than 30k on the clock.

Corvette oil pan.

Box of goodies: Valve covers, pistons, oil return, ect.

So thats the plan now. This is going to be an Ls1 car. And tackling it on a budget, impossible? Not if you got the motor for what I got it for

Plans now find out how to put this thing in, do they make a conversion kit for the Ls into an s13?

The motor is going to get a nice cam and thata probably it. 6-speed and a tune should net me close to 400. and still get good gas mileage (in the way of a v8)

any advice on the matter is welcome !

Yes the LS1 gets pretty good gas mileage for a V8 you can get up to 30mpg highway probably 20mpg around town.

Oh I got the SEM satin black today, wow I'm impressed its a very very close match to OEM trim it was well worth the $10/can
