Here's some new mods I've done in the past few weeks. First is my Polk momo's front and rear components with crossovers, tweeters in the A pillars. They sound real nice....still have some fine tuning to do with them but overall they sound great! :D

Next is the wheels...put some vinyl decals on chrome orange on the wheels.....looks real good and matches the TM perfectly!

Last is the "tiludrop" emblem on back :D

Good sh!t Dance. I like the tweeters in the pilars. The rims need something else orange though, maybe the center caps. The orange isn't noticeable at first glance.

"TOTALLY SWEET!!!" That would look good on any major Blvd. in SoCal, you are really putting together a seriously nice vision of an E!

Thanks for the compliments guys :D

You're thinking right in line with me burn....that's the next step I wanted to take and had the same feeling on the orange.

critical...this winter they're going back up for sale, once I park the E for the season. :D

The orange on the wheels is a nice touch, but yeah they need a little more for spokes of that size. Then again, too much would take away from the car. The touch of color to the rims looks good as is on second glance. Looking nice!

i initially wanted to wrap the spokes but they wouldn't stay on the chrome....I'm looking to do the center cap....even tho in about a month they're coming off and being sold :D

Dance, nice touch on the wheels. I like the tangerine accents. Are you going to paint the front end TM or leave it black?

Looking sweeter each week....just hope those speakers aren't still shorting out! ;)

Maybe do a TM lip like how i did the SOP on mine. I still love the color matched lip. Looking good though man!!! I guess the short is fixed. I had that same problem. See ya at the next meet!

Yeah T-Mac the short's fixed and the crossovers are installed.....sounds real good! The short was the speaker hitting the metal frame on the door....this winter I'll fix everything for good with the raamat being installed and the doors done with the foam too!

Smooth the whole E needs painted as when I bought it, it had chips and scratches all over. Haven't painted the front because i need to save up for the entire thing to be painted. We'll see when I have enough cash to do so. :| It's driving me nuts not having the paint completed, but what can you do?

.....need another job to pay for my mod maddnes!! :D :D

I like the subtle look of the orange, makes the rims stand out while standing still. posing!

Looking good Dance. Are you still loooking to do the glass work on the doors??

when he gets done with it there should be glass all over that sucker. probably the first big glass project will be between the front seats (sorry if it was a secret)

as for the rims, if i could figure a way to get those led's in there w/o throwing off the balance that would make those things look crazy

Accord, yeah I still want to do the doors and the rear cargo area, and I'd love to get someone (possibly you) to help on the front bumper and shave the side markers. :D

Like h2o said I've got new project too....... a 7" screen going into the area where the radio is and have that to get painted. h2o did the work on the screen :D Now just gotta get it to paint!

Yo Dance - Great job. Looks awesome. Love those wheels. That is one mean looking machine. Best of luck with it and whatever else you do to it.

Looks good Dance but I told you that when you came over for the cookout last month. I think the center caps would look good if you can inlay the TM in the letters, for another accent. Doing the entire spoke would be too much. Like I said when I first saw it, its just a nice touch. Like all that you've done to it. One thing about the Element, you can keep it stock or make mods and personalize it to be YOU! No matter, I've never seen a bad Element. Some may look better than others but they all look good. Just like a woman. :rolleyes:

Ha! You should have chozn tell you his King's Island story :???: I agree every E looks good to me!

Tangerine....save your coins fast as I'll be putting them up anytime now! I'll even throw in the extra orange vinyl strips I have. :D

Thanks for all the props guys....looking to get a winter vehicle here real soon so I can park this baby and get to work!

KING'S ISLAND STORY!:shock: I had just got that out of my head and now I'll have to carry that through the winter months. At least I'll be warm if not HOT! :D

Hey Dance, you think those strips can come in Tango Red or close to it and if so, you think I could get them to stick in the middle of my spokes where the little gray valleys are? If not there, it the film is flexible, maybe I could inlay it around the outter edge of the rim. Just an accent again and I'd probably have to do as you did and put it on one wheel and then another the other way to see how it looks. If not to my liking, just take it off, cleanly I hope.

Me Run for office. I've been told I should do so. Everyone says I should run for City County Council or even mayor but the rules on our department says no other participation in politics other than voting. Besides, people don't won't to go on your current life, record and beliefs but those ghost and skeletons you buried a lifetime ago. :-( THEY WANT DIRT and to see if you're vulnerable. I'd have to pull out my AK.

I'll go the the shop and see if he has a color close to the TRP.

On a side note, talk to Penske as TR looks like a bust.....we only got 4ppl coming as I see right now.....I'll PM you later 'bout it :D
