What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[IdealSociety]

wasnt on my festiva but i did dig into my contour headlights and fix them up. one was holding about a half gallon of water in it so i pulled it apart. while it was opened up i also painted the middle section to tone down the massive amount of chrome on the front end of this otherwise black car. looks 10x better now imo.

stock side:


buffed/painted side:


and the side by side:


spent about 2 hours buffing the plastic cover alone. i highly recommend Meguirs PlastX for polishing these things, it worked amazingly well. I used a drill with a foam buffind pad on the end to do all the hard work.

Picked up my cometic head gasket and arp head studs! Plan to install them immediately after work, so maybe I won't be scared to push it past 5 psi without popping another felpro head gasket. 14 psi b6 sohc here I come!

probably flex? have you seen the dyno video of the car with the turbo where the headlight was?

Buwahahaha, I can't wait for spring time :evil4:

Damn kid...

And if the turbo wasn't enough?

yeah, the front clip is just tacked onto the firewall. pretty scary. doesn't even connect back to the rails or anything. spot welds and caulk is about all the car has going for it lol

[Damkid]

I might strengthen it one day, I'll probably need to eventually lol

[walth]

Damkid: are you going to strengthen the front end of the car? idk how much power you'll have but I wonder how much it'll flex (if it does)

Hacked out the spare tire hump and the exhaust... gotta do some unibody boxing and re-route some of it... fun yay! lul.
