chalk up another gt500 conversion...
well last night i attempted to install the shelby pins on my hood and was having some trouble so i drank a few beers and bar b qued some burgers so i could clear my mind... got the help i needed from TOMBSTANG! thanks alot for those videos!
anyway... woke up this morning thinking i'm gonna go pick up some plasti dip for the mesh on my grill.
left home and headed to a local shop to see if i could pick up some pro kit springs before the weekend for the san diego autofest. they wanted 290 bucks and they would get here by friday.. i said nah and ordered another mod through american muscle. pro kit should be here next week.
headed to autozone and picked up the black paint caliper paint kit i was going to order through american muscle which i will try to do later tonight or tomorrow morning. mod number 2.
spoke with mellowyellow (joe) on the way home about getting his CAI and sct sent to me.. mod three done.
ended up getting in touch with ED at SW customs... 10 min later i made my order for the gt500 front end conversion! this will be a hard thing to wait for but i have a few mods like the shelby pins, paint calipers, pro-kit, and offroad prochamberto hold me off til then. haha
After this is all said and done... im gonna throw a flat black superstripe down the middle of it and "call it quits" for a while... or at least that's the plan. will keep everyone updated with pics and videos once these get put on the car. thanks to tombstang mike and mellowyellow joe for all the help.

RE: chalk up another gt500 conversion...
Glad I could be a help brother.
I already know Im going to like the car just from the plans you have told me and the lil accents like the shelby pins , your hood and the secret mufflers[8D].
Cant wait to see the super stripe with that hood Im waiting for you to do it before I do it since I have the same hood.
good luck bro.
p.s think about what i sent ya on myspace about the billett grilles, you can see them on cervinis site , you just have to picture them powder coated black
