Hey CL...

Kinda got bored with my DD Sportcross being bone stock. So I'm doing some basic, simple, and cheap mods to make my commuter car more fun and better looking...

Keep checking back, cause I'll be adding pics periodically.

Positive and Negative comments are welcomed.

Clean so far lol keep going

 

i wanna see the wheels on the car!

 

simple but different....i like it so far

 

nice nice

 

Okay so Wheels done, so i turned my attention to the sidemarkers

Bad idea!!!

I used that VHT Nightshades spray tint, but it leaked through the tape and onto the car... (more on that later)

Onto the pics:





In this pic you can see where the VHT leaked through

 

I wish i woulda taken more pics but the VHT leaked through the tape all the way around the the sidemarkers on all 4 sidemarkers!!!

That **** is hard to get off:
Paint thinner doesnt work, Goof off doesnt work
the only thing that worked was heavy duty rubbing compound and Steel wool and a lot of elbow grease
(it doesnt help that i couldnt get the rears off)

 

cool man! way to spruce it up!

 

Thanks, your SportX is Awesome!!!

 

Then i removed those stupid gold pinstripes on the side of my car

Before:





So to cheer myself up (after my mishap) i decided to Plastidip my door handles



Oh, and here is how the wheels look on the car, door handles Plastidipped, and De-Striped

 

I dont know why but i really like the black door handles.

Look good man!

Thanks man!!!

 

I second that

 

Okay, so far so good... Only problem is that ridiculous rake that the Sportx has... These should help
