post pics of your custom installs in a 1g preferably fiberglass trying to get pics and ideas, thanks
 
oh boy, wheres devlish, haha, he'll post his stuff up, his car owns all......there man, there isn't a better segway than that.
 
even if he doesnt post in here, either do a search for him, or look in his gallery, although im not sure if he has any of those pics in there. i think he has or had a website though, maybe find that.
 
yea he has a web site where he shows off fwhat he has done, and even put together a couple of how-to's so we all can imitate him. His car and skills rock!

Mike :laser:
 
Theres nothing better than devlish's car, if he doesn't have something you want, your nuts, LOL, but i'll keep looking.
 
yeah, check my webpage for now.. i just added a new section a few weeks ago with another kickpanel writeup, and should have another once i get my computer back (harddrive took a crap)

so look for a big writeup on another complete fiberglass job (pictured below) i did for a friend

later

Devilish, what are you using to paint your work? Do you have a paint gun?
 
i use PPG paints, basecoat/clearcoat. i used some OMNI for that last project, and it worked well. next time though i want to try Martin Sr. Paints. yes, i use an air gun / compressor. would never use rattle-can on that stuff. too much time invested to spray-can it! :laugh:

if your looking for a painter, you can usually find one of your smaller local shops to do the final prime & paint for a reasonable price (or so i've heard) if you don't have the equipment or know-how.
 
I dont have any pics yet because its not finished, but at the moment I'm doing a fiberglass overlay of my dash. Having a wrecked 1g in my back yard comes in handy for experimenting. But when I finish, IF it looks decient I'll take some pics and post...I'm just keeping my fingers crossed on it looking decient.

Just curious because it turned out really well. I've repainted my entire front kit just with rattle cans and then wetsanded up to 1000grit, polished, and added show car gloss. You could never tell it was sprayed with cans but next time I'm gonna get a air gun because I didnt care for wetsanding all week.
 
Here's my instrument cluster:

the engine temp gauge saved my ass once... u really wanna take that outta ur car?

I didn't... look in the stock boost location.
 
I believe if you look by the tach there, it still has the coolant temp. gauge (which you were probably referring to as the engine temp). Just re-located. Weird, my 91 gauge cluster is different I believe? Although it's been sitting in the garage on jackstands so long that I couldn't say 100% :laugh:

*Edit*: I see he beat me to pointing it out! Damn Dialup!
