No write up, just work. I'd like to one soon, but not sure if I'll have the time.

Here's what all I had to buy:
$55 Clear Front Plate
$15 Paint, clear, sand paper, polish
$43 250 6000mcd white LEDs
$4 Resistors
$4 Solder
$5 Liquid electrical tape (to seal board)
$10 2-blank circuit boards
$3 Trailer connector to plug board up
$10 Silver Overlay

VERY nicely done.

I wish I had the patience to do that.
And even if I did, I know I'd get pulled over for it.

I was watching this time. It was the first one I went to so I did not bring the car. Do you ever make any of the cruise nights or shows around Lake Charles? I just don't remember seeing your car at any of them. It would be nice to have another firebird at some of the events.

Great job, so how exactly did you do it?

Cutout your factory front cover, cut the clear one and push it through?!
Have links to the stuff you bought?
Thanks

I would say it would have to be about 200 a piece, he spent 149 just for the proper hard ware.....I think that would be a fair price.....$200...parts and labor...LOL

but I love it, it looks awesome.....Patent that design and make the money off it!!
