So now that I have the new festy home I've been able to do a little work here and there. My main goal is to clean it up and "complete" it. First off if you remember Pimptiva then you remember Simon's custom flip out taillight/fuel filler setup. Well I decided I was going to go back to that but I had some work cut out for me to make those lights work with the new paint scheme.......
The light on the left is after a good bit of wetsanding (the other light is what they both looked like)
And here they are both wetsanded and polished....(excuse the crappy cell phone pics)
I don't have pics of it, but I also had to track down a replacement hinge for the flip out light. The original hinge was cut off and a different taillight was zip tied in place with access to the fuel filler just being inside the hatch area. I also decided to tackle the headliner or lack thereof! Having a gaping hole in the roof in the form of a ragtop is pretty awesome, but at the same time I hated looking up and seeing the ugly bare roof and no headliner. Here's an old busted headliner I used for my trial cutting (thanks Mark)..
Here's the material I decided to use....
Yes it's purple! I originally planned to use it in the interior of hulkstiva
And here's the completed headliner....
Not bad if I do say so myself! It's not perfect but I think it looks pretty good and will really compliment the interior of the car now. So those are my updates thus far. Will add more as more gets done. Thanks for looking!
