Talking My tailfiller mod....

Long time no post and not sure if anyone around here remembers me. As I had said in another thread I had some hard times so I wasnt doing much of any posting or car stuff all last summer. I'm no longer with the guy that made me miserable and now have a wonderful boyfriend. He's the one that installed the headers on my car last March (some might remember) and has lots of plans for the bird...he's great working on cars He just installed a set of hugger orange BMR LCA's and will be replacing my slipping stock clutch with a Spec Stage 3 that's sitting in his garage.

Anyway the one mod I did to the car last late summer I wanted to post a pic of . I filled the keyhole on the tailfiller with some bondo then primed/painted it black. I cut a stencil for the "Formula" and bird and airbrushed it on. Tell me what ya think.

Thanks . The only thing that stinks now is the car is a daily driver so I had to go through all the recent snow/salt crap. Right now the car looks like I dipped it into the Dead Sea with all the salt!

Yup, I remember you. Never did run into you at BK or any of the other local events. I saw your car a couple time, but never did run into you.

Mods look nice! Keep it up!

1998camaroz28 - I was born/raised in the Philly area and I sure miss the Cheesesteaks. Everytime I go up to visit my mom its what we always go get for dinner/lunch. Down here they can't make a decent one....they put mayo and lettuce on it. The rolls arent even right....they just screw the whole thing up.

PendragonZ - I didnt go to too many events last year including Burger King. This year I most likely will be going to BK alot and other local events.

JackZ28 - Ummm yes I sure am a girl

Looks good to me. In fact, it almost looks stock. I didn't even notice there was no keyhole until I re-read the thread.

Thanks again. I think it looks alot better without that ugly keyhole plus it allowed me to make the bird bigger. You just have to fill hole partially with Bondo since part of it does set over the keyhole. I think I've had my tailfiller about 5 different ways since I first got the car in Oct 2001. I'll hunt through my photos and post the transition. I also hope to get my webpage back up....the ex took everything down from the server out of anger and I dont have any of the html left from the pages so now I have to redo everything all over again
