    I'm doing this first!

    I've retrofitted my Grand Marquis already, made my own lenses and used FX-Rs with a DDM ballast set up.

    These Festy headlights are almost perfect. I think instead of vacuum forming, I'm going to build them out of plexiglass and the bonding agent that comes out of a bottle with a needle... Anyways, I'll use the Mini D2S bolt ins. Not sure when the money's going to let me though.

    JVX does take good comparison pics. I think he's worked well with Matt at TRS to get output shots of most of the projectors out there.

          • Cleaned the injectors and fuel rail on my Blue 93. Changed the disty last week due to no signal to fire the injectors.

            • A few things I've done to the BP over the past day or two.

              Got an engine hoist for $60 on craigslist.
              Removed the power steering / ac stuff.
              Replaced exhaust manifold gasket, oil pan gasket. Little things like pcv valve, air filter (damn was that thing dirty...)
              Spray painted the heat shield.
              Put my red valve cover on, no gasket yet. Debating on whether or not I should do the head gasket.
              Cleaned it up a bit, I've got a long way to go but every day is progress.

              BP, Aspire brakes, stock trans.

              • If you're unsure about the head gasket, just do it.

                • Nice man! Looking good. X2 on the head gasket. Just do it all now while it's out and ready to go.

                  Valve cover looks nice! Nice to see it actually on a car rather than sitting in my garage :p Plus your car is red!

                    • ^^Looks good! I really like having a hatch cover. Especially to hide what's in my trunk like tools sub/amp etc. It helps cut down road noise as well and just looks good!

                      Good work!

                      • I put the my head back together today. Slowly but surely! Probably bolt it to the block tomorrow. Gotta change my rear main seal plate too. I used one I had laying around and it's different than the XR2 one, think it was from an NA capri with a steel oil pan which doesn't work with the alloy pan. Anyway, I know I have the XR2 one around somewhere, it doesn't have the studs in it. Back to the spare parts box!
