I know there are some of you that don't know what my car looked like when we bought it 3 years ago.


This the way it looked the first Return to the beach we went to. So, those that are hessitant about going to a show. Just make sure to clean the car well and be proud of what you have.

There are a couple more pics, including what the air ride setup looked like when we got her, here: misc pics pictures by lowpt - Photobucket

Hey, after looking at the pics, I ahve to say sweet job on all, esp. the gas filler. I was curious though how you sealed the tail light, does it leak water in by the gas cap when it rains?

I don't have any problems with water, so far. If you think about it though, it is the same as it was from the factory, just in a different location.

True, but the pictures make it hard to tell how far in/down the fill is. I just couldn't tell if a good rain or car wash would fill your "taillight" up, or if it was flush bottomed, or just had a drain hole.

I took a piece of sheet metal cut for the base and mounted the gas filler tube to it. There is a drain hole in there as well. After sanding on the car I would spray it off at the car wash, even opening the taillight/gas door. I have had no problems.

Does the exenon bumper cover go over the original bumper or does it replace it? I was thinking about buying it for my cruiser cause of the good price.

The cover that you are looking at PTboutique that you lined to in your thread is just a cover. The one on my car is the Xenon Crusher and is a replacement for the front bumper. If you look at the pic above you can tell the flat black part is the Crusher bumper.

Looks great, I like the mirrors, taillights and fuel door delete. Where do you get the taillights anyway?
