Nathan's Silver GT

What grille is that? I'd definitely do the coyote badge with a pony-less grille.

Custom. I made it with plastic mesh and the stock grille.

I just went through the rest of your build thread. Very nice job. How is it holding up?

Perfect, no issues. It gets power washed weekly and has also survived our 110 plus heat and somewhat chilly winter (mid 30's in the morning).

Great looking build! Nice personal touches. The ingot silver color offers a lot of directions to go in...

Thanks. I agree, silver offers the opportunity to go a bunch of different directions.

My new badge arrived. I haven't decided if I'm going to put the matching one on the rear deck lid or not, but it looks good on the grille.




I also did my second oil change today. Patiently awaiting the arrival of my 6gr wheels from need4speed.

I wanted to see what my car would look like with a black vinyl roof. I got the material in on Wednesday and got around to wrapping it today. I went with a semigloss 3M 1080 vinyl. I have never wrapped anything or used vinyl so I wasn't expecting much. It went pretty smooth. It took about 2 hours to install with a felt squeegee and a hair dryer. I did not take off the roof antenna so I just heated and stretched the vinyl over it. I'm pretty happy with the way it tuned out. The material is pretty forgiving. It lets you pull and stretch pretty hard, and the air release channels it has saved me more than once.

Just because I love black and white.

Looks great! Did you end up wrapping around the GPS antenna or removing it and reinstalling it?

Just wrapped over it.

How vinyl did you buy?

How vinyl did you buy?

5ft x 6ft. I used 5x5. You need the extra to pull and stretch.

Why do you need to stretch it

Why do you need to stretch it

The roof is domed. You have to stretch it a little to get it to lay flat.
