and I have to give some props to the homie Mike at Original Garage (OG) for cleaning up my trunk and fixing some misc wiring from my air set up. I can definitely vouch for mike and his meticulous ways when working on something and we should see more when some of his other work begins to surface:biggthumpup:

New wheels made the car looking amazing, very good job! Only thing I would have done differently is wrap the trunk in suede instead.

thanks for the props jeebs. here's a couple more pics of the stuff i did.

Forum image

power wire and uca clearance.

Forum image

controller remolded into the ashtray, really just cleaned up a little and flocked. didn't come out perfect but it was my first time dealing with flock.

Forum image

just for the record this is a "basic" install, not am actual trunk build. i kept it clean, simple, cost effective, and most importantly funtional. everything can be trouble shot from the box under the floor and the entire floor can be removed by making disconnections only there as well. the hinged compressor portions provide access to the oem compartments.

thanks to those who appreciate it.

Thanks, I'll see what's up with the red LH caps.

Thanks, I stole the color from a Lamborghini Murcielago. The color name is Rosso Vic. The original idea for painting it red was because I didnt get a chance to paint my previous car red when it got painted. The LS400 also never came in red as far as I know so I figured it would seperate it ia bit from the rest of them.
