just talked to SUNIL to do XENON = PRESENT so I can finally hook up my bi's. other mods waiting in boxes are moleskin and tint (as soon as I find a good shop) amg pedals, and 05 mirror blinkers. been lazy lately so these things have been in closet.

Might want to think about removing that pinstriping - looks cheap, imho.

Otherwise, about 90% of your list seems oddly familiar to me...

pedals finally installed, and pinstripe removed, tho some of the glue is still there. it was getting hot so later today when cooled off maybe I'll go back and do more and wash the car.

black grill, thinking bout putting a coat of gloss on it

05 LED Blinker ( older style was brighter, I could tell when it was blinking)

Thinking bout wrapping in leather when I do the seats but I wanting to see how it would look if I dyed it first. Still lending towards leather
