Sold. Thx.

Sold. Thx guys.

I wonder this too....???

I told her.... "baby, you know I love you and your ghetto plasti-dipped paint job"

Thanks for the help everyone

IMO only Hondas and Nissans tend to look ricey. I like the look. Like someone else said, kind of looks like a drag car with those tires. Keep up the good work!

1 and 2 are the turn signals I know that much. Because it bugged me that the turn signal didn't use the actual corner light.

Can anyone tell me what a set of 4 original Eagle Talon 2g wheels would be worth? They are white in color and came off of my old TSI that I had several years ago. I see a lot of people wanting talon parts these days since they are hard to come by but I wasn't sure about the wheels. Thanks in...

My spyder sat for only 2 years outside before I bought it and so far I've replaced damn near everything except the motor. It fired right up and I could drive it but the car was falling apart everywhere else. It's solid now though thousands of dollars later. Same thing with my wife's minivan. It...

Welcome

Thx man. Spyder brother, I like that. :) can't say that any fellow spyder owners referred to me as their brother. Lol. Anyways, who knows, I might not ever get it sold. I could stop the modification route but truthfully there wasn't any mods. All my money went in to putting factory replacement...

Here's a few photos. More to come.

I forgot to mention that the spyder is a 99 :)

Pics to come

So here I am, doing something I never thought I'd be doing anytime soon. I've decided to sell my spyder. I don't have to, I don't really want to, but I need to. And above all, I probably should. I can't afford to put any more cash in to this thing to make it exactly what I want it to be in the...

This is EXACTLY the same problem(s) that I am having. I already put a new battery in before this even started. Guess I'll be going to check my fuse box here in a minute. :)

Lol Ya probably soAwesome word! I've got to make room in my vocabulary for Automagically. Thx! Lol

Why would I need AWD parts if my car is only FWD? Thx for the help everyone.

Yes I know it's proven fact. But the 13's, lol that was the funny part

"My stock eclipse (NT) runs 13's when I put moth balls in the gas tank" a week later his injectors clogged.

I'm still pretty lost though. Lol. Sorry for being an old noob. Ok, so coilovers give a rougher ride and are more for the track, correct? Since mines a DD I want to just get shorter springs? To me it seems like the rear of the car is entirely to high. Should I lower the rear more than the front...

Thanks for all the advice so far. This is all helpful.

Ok so I'm wanting to lower my 99 spyder to a respectable height but ride quality and durability is extremely important to me. My car is stock so racing specs is not what I'm looking for. I am wanting the best possible ride that I can get without being bounced around inside the car. My car is...

Here are some progress photos. I sprayed under coating on the entire floor and trunk to help soften up road noise as well as prevent rust. (Since I have none yet...yay) I plasti dipped my lower dash in black. You can see in some of the photos the two tone gray/black that it was before. Now it's...

Thx man! Much appreciated.

Hey man, you know where I can get a 5 speed transmission for my 2.4 NT. I need one that's ready to go. Thx

Thx I'll definitely start there.

I'm looking to upgrade my stock gray Sun visors to a black set preferably in leather or a nice new black material. I have a 99 spyder and considered just shaving the visors but I think I'll just upgrade them instead. Anyone know of other cars that may have compatible visors out there? Maybe the...

And it will be one day :)

Feel free to show some photos of the progress. I'd like to see how it goes. Thx

I would like to #pound# that dudes face that sold it to me

Knows I just bought an Xbox 360 off of Craigslist and when I got it home it was packed full of cockroaches.... ewe

Any new updates on where to get plasti dip at a really good price? I've look on eBay and such but the shipping always kills the deal. Thx

Fascinating. I'm going to read in to this some more. Thanks

I'm kind of an old fart. Can you explain to me what plastidip is? Lol

I haven't fully decided what color to go with. Part of me wants it back to black, my favorite color on a car is white, and the other part of me wants to go with something totally different and off the wall but with taste and style.

Oh yea, I won that battle for sure! Lol. Nice ride though buddy. Thx for posting the pic. It gives me something to look forward to with my baby.

That would work great, if I didn't forget to take my keys out of the ignition. Lol. My problem was always locking the keys and remote in my mini truck. That's why I'm going to hook up On-Star service in my eclipse if I ever shave the door handles. :banghead:

Yea that's in the plans too. Getting new clutch put in next week. One step at a time. Lol

Black and polished. Ya the photo is kind of pixelated because I zoomed in. I would take another but it's pouring rain outside. Maybe tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback man.

Finally got her put back together yesterday. But this two tone paint job has got to go. Lol. Work in progress that's for sure. Just trying to see if anyone out there likes my wheels? 18" Pinnacle Spyders. (Fitting name huh) would like to see other DSMs with these same wheels if you come across...

I'll private message you

Sold. Thanks everyone.

That's exactly what I do every chance I get. I once turned a $500 purchase into $3500 just by a complete detail. I've detailed cars most of my life. Pull out the seats, carpet, off come the wheels then spend about $40 in supplies and a couple days cleaning every nook and cranny. Use flat black...

I'm down for a meet. I'll be in the spyder that's half red and half black. Lol. She's awaiting a paint job this fall hopefully.

I've had them on my show trucks and only had a problem once. I just broke the window. Lol. But that's why I said I wanted a manual switch underneath the car or something to pop it open in case something goes wrong such as battery or solenoid failure. I just don't know which brands are better...

I'm looking for advice on what door popper kit people have had good luck with. My car has electric locks but the piece INSIDE the drivers door is broken and dangling and the car didn't come with a key fob anyways. So I was considering just shaving the handles and installing a good popper that...

Ok this has officially been completed. I can 100% honestly say that the door from my 99 coupe fit my 99 Spyder. Thank you to the guys who told me it was possible. And in your face to all the people, body shops, mechanics, junkyards and dealerships that said it wouldn't fit. And in case anyone is...

I was told it was either one or the other. But was never told the DSMs didn't have a pilot bearing. Lol. Good to know.

Sorry for the noob question, but why is there no pilot bearing on a DSM? I'm facing a clutch change and was told the noise I was hearing was a pilot bearing. Not trying to hijack this thread, just curious. Thanks.
