Default Painted some stuff and relocated fuse box.

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. My wife has the good camera and she is out of town.

Painted the back of the headlights flat back and the center bumper support flat black. The bumper support was faded to a ugly color and the back of the heads lights were just nasty.




You also dont see fuse box anymore > going to make a cover to go down and hide the wire from the fuse box.



i may later do it in a satin black but this only took me about 45mins and i already had a can of flat black

Any pics of where you moved the fuse box? Looks great, I'm more of a go than show guy, but this is tempting.

Thanks, I've never seen that before. Would have really come in handy when we were considering air intake options on my friend's 95 Z28 w/LS1. We only didn't use an LS1 body harness because the fuse boxes would be in the way.

Mainly because it limits hood choice. He still hasn't made up his mind on it. Truth is, the LT1 intake sucks, it's very resrictive, so the only options really, are to make something custom, or go to the LS1 style. But... for the initial install, we needed to use the LT1 airbox.
