[raptorWagon]

They didn't work for me either.

 

Face book sucks.

 

[Diego]

Pictures are up.

 

Nice.

 

[Diego]

Yeah you seen it last night while it was in the prep stage, and the other things I still have on my to do list...

Dude, you make a post about an AMG wing which is awesome, but then you eclipse it with that Halloween carving. How the hell do you do that, it looks awesome!

Wash the car and post some more pics of the wing outside in better light. You clearly deserve some appreciation after going through hell to fit it and those pics are not doing it justice! I'd appreciate some advice and pointers too as I am going to have to go through this later on at least one car.

So awesome!
I know that at any second it's just going to come to life, leap off of the pumpkin and gnaw on unsuspecting children!

It was fairly easy. We ( me and the awesome neighbor with a 72? AMC Javelin ) taped it off and used a measuring tape ( oh yeah ) traced the outline, measured 2x and drilled once. I need to wash it, take some goo gone to the lid where ther was some residue left from old wing... wash and well I'm going to have to say its SUPER SEXY.

So what's left on my to do list.

: Fabricate sold square tubing for a seat fram to mount my new seats I've purchased
: Uninstall old DS fender hang new one
: Fix driveline sag
: Clean and put picures in Members ride section.

Any way you could do a FULL write up on this? It would forever immortalize your name w GVR4.org

 

[Diego]

I just noticed this comment^^^ while digging it up for a new guy, I will write up something for the people so that way it is forever stoned into the How-To section...

Glad to see you glamming up your car. I thought you were gonna sell it, what changed your mind? I digs the wing, very nice.

 

I would like to see a write up.. I am interested how much
Work it actually takes.

The trunk base and the Passenger side is cake, but with the wiring components on the DS side is a tight fit...

To get the 3rd light to fit you need to file the initial (if you had a wing) brake light hole a smidge to get the connector inside the lid...

I believe we got that figured out and the connector to fit. Is she alive now?? when you get her running you need to come down to denver to chill.

The threat of a part out changed his mind. Works everytime.

Yes, the partout tucked my balls up inside. Justin will have first dibs if I ever pull the trigger. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

That's good that you didn't sell it. I would love to have a meet this spring, now that I am finally making progress on my car. Do you plan to do a full paint?
