Got my new trunk on. Easier than i thought.

Old trunk. Gross keyhole and old outline from chevy badge






New shaved keyhole trunk and no badges. Mmmmmm. Bumper looks a different colour because its really dirty






And my ghetto backup manual trunk opener that i can get from the inside when i fold down the backseats

Decided to throw on my toyota tails. Wiring nice and easy. I had a few different variations i could have chosen. I chose the 00-02 inners, non toyo, and the black outlined outers. Heres pictures

I'm liking where this is going, and missing my 01 Sedan. My plans were exactly how yours was right before the WW front lip. I really like the 02 LSS front with the 03-05 sides and rear.


The tails look great. I'm usually not a fan of the 00-02 Toyos, but the black makes them so much better.

Got some new axles and my new control arms with poly bushings in. Ride feels much more solid in the front and have no more binding/creaking from my axles. Although i still have a bit of a shake but i believe its the lower wishbone engine mount since i smacked it off some railroad tracks going 80 last year. I will throw my poly mount in soon lol Pictures:












This is what happened when i hit said railway tracks.at night. Buddy behind me got a full sparking. he was riding my ass, then he backed off when sparks flew. oh well.







Also got these 10mm spacers in. My other ones were way too big! I had 1" ones on my old cav with my z'ed rims on and they fit fine. but i forgot the gtz rims are 1" wider than the z24 rims. So these new spacers should do the trick.

removed the side moldings today. Was pleasantly surprised with the outcome. Still have to do more polishing on the doors. All in all i was at it for about 2 1\2 hours. Most of it removing the old adhesive. Here's pics.

Nice man. 4 doors always look better without the moldings.

Update. FIrst things first, had some fun getting stuck at the entrance of my Omas cottage driveway



ok so i had my new tires put on the front. Not a big deal, theyre 205 50 16's

I got my arp extended lug bolts on, put on my 10mm spacers and my camber shims. Shims didnt add much but oh well.







Next i got a bunch of interior pieces and front seats that are not gross beige. I still need rear seats and probably the carpet

















All my old pieces.




Some pictures for fun again








next i want to drop the back a bit because my new front tires dropped the car a little less than half an inch in the front.


sorry for all the pictures. well not really.

How did you get off the adhesive? I took my side moldings off and goo gone is not working.

I used wd40, although goo gone should work I just didn't have any. my fingernails and a small plastic scraper to scrape the adhesive off. Just takes a long time to get it all off

That front WW lip and the 03-05 rear and sides look great together.

Thanks man. I was actually throwing around the idea of getting IF sides, but I'm not sure it'll line up as well as the sides on now

Re: my cav

I opted for the IF sides instead of the 03+ sides on my old car and they do sit a bit lower. its not that noticeable though.

Yea they don't seem off. Either IF or RK sport sides. I'd have to see both in person or do a test fit of each to fully make my decision if I were to do it
