So your moving the whole PCM. Is that the old passenger airbag location?

I just had a thought. What if I moved my PCM to in front of the right wheel, down by the horn? Or maybe on the left side by the cruise control?

I don't know, I just couldn't come up with an acceptable way to hide the wires on the passenger fender. I got stumped.

Wow how could you say that - have you ever been to a hot rod show? People are doing this same thing to classic hot rods from the 20's on up and who's to say someone can't do this to a modern day muscle car. This guy is really an artist and that car is looking incredible. To each their own on taste, so why would you read thru this whole thread and make a really dumb comment like that???? What really makes me laugh is that its guys like this who fix your car when you wreck or screw it up.

x2....this genre of the car scene isn't my thing, but your skill in all aspects is amazing. The metal work with the speaker rings made my mouth drop. Keep posting up progress.

I've been sticking with this thread since the beginning, and man, this car is really turning out awesome. It's people like you, and Green Dragon, another member on here who thinks outside the box, that really prove what you can do with a little time and effort. Your car looks stunning, and it's not even finished yet! I can't wait to see more pictures!
