Yes, I was a little too camera happy !! Haha

But most of the stuff that I wanted to get done are done. Exhaust, Rims& tires and the very important Wind Deflector, which stops from the rain coming in.

For now, the mods shall take a pause until fall, when I will lower the car and change the lights !!


During summer, I want to paint the grill black all by myself..and also dress up the engine bay and maybe tint the tail lights myself !!

Very nice. You have done what I have been wanting to do for a while now...MAGNA FLOW! Also, where did you get the deflectors? Very good looking car, all you need is a 1.5" drop. Here is a link on how to paint the grill:

Thanks for the comments guys, appreciate it !! My car does too

The pillows are awesome !!! Everyone who sits in it, falls in love with them instantly !! Plus it matches my AMG shoulder pads, which is another great comfort feature !!

Euro's ?? Hmm.....not feeling them yet. I dont really mind these old school ones !! I am just thinking, which sort of lights to get for the best possible HID retrofitting !! The ones on ebay look pretty good, except they are wayy too sparkly for my taste, but I might not have a choice !! And I need good lighting during winter in all that snow !!

Wind Deflector- I got them from Ebay $50 shipped to my door, great investment !!

Drop - I want to and plan to, but I don't think I can. The rear wheels stick out. Unless you guys have any suggestions !!

(interior with armor-all sucks bad)
makes your car looking really clean

Were the deflectors from an eBay store? What did you search to find them? I have been looking for them for a while now.

Nice, but I'm surprised your 88' doesn't have a cut out on the bumper for the exhaust tips.
