Painting my "shifter" gonna look good
ad6fcbf9-91c1-d3ff.jpg

Well hopefully. I am a lil tipsy
 
took it out for its usual daily drive but seen another unmodded LS and well what can i say we eneded up driving em like we stole em ... then did a lil parking lot flexing at burger king :woohoo:
 
Installed cabin air filters into my '02! :wootwoot:

Again, asking myself why I didnt do this sooner?!?

I don't think it looks too awfully bad. Little bit of bleed. But oh well. I'll clean it up somehow.

Did you paint it?? I like the 2 tone!

I did an engine flush, oil change with mobile 1 full syn and a K&N oil filter. I also removed the CPAS and gave that baby a good spanking :wink: my SES light went off and no more codes being thrown I even have more power!

I am in the slow process of downloading my pictures from my camera to photohell and doing a write up on spanking the CPAS!
 
silvernclean said:
Yup I painted it. Bled a lil. But don't look too bad. It was all black.

I couldn't even tell which color you painted on it or where you see the bleeding lol I think it looks good! And you could use nail polish to fix the minor stuff. That's what I did on my GMC Emblem lol I used black nail polish to touch up a few places that I peeled off with the painters tape.
 
Lol. That's funny. My wife said to use nail polish remover to get rid of the bleed. Women and their nails. :rolleyes:

We women have secrets that you men would just die to find out :lipsrsealed:
 
A shot of my never-ending project. I might get these done this year :crazy: My biggest snag right now is figuring out what to do with the old glue that holds the lens on. How do you remove the old stuff? It's a royal pain!

Nail polish remover...and I'm not trying to be funny lol we used it and it works great. We keep a bottle in our tool box :wink:
 
Does it break down that gummy gray glue?

How did you get those end caps on........when I was testing the look on my truck the caps where difficult to put on without breaking :mad::hissyfit:

The rear caps were easy, but I did break the front ones trying to get them off the first time. I am going to get auto glue to keep them on. The rubber under the front isn't even touching the paint either.
 
Sparky said:

It did for ours. We sprayed it on and let it sit for about 5 minutes, most peeled right off. I do think we used a razor to scrape some off too. Mind you I did this on a set of test headlights.
 
Lol I.currently have some heavy books laying on the rubber things the rails sit on because mine were like that too notaying flat on the roof. It's working cause they will lay flat on the roof now, just have to get em painted body color
 
I did an engine flush, and cleaned the CPAS. It eliminated the SES light and the throwing of the p1345 and p0014 codes!! Super happy!
 
Well today I got to install the (new to me) rear push button for the rear glass since last week I kinda sorta broke mine trying to free it up (it was very very stuck). At least I can use the rear glass instead of opening the entire lift gate again. :thumbsup:

I may have to get some then. I'll get it late at night when nobody is around to see me in that aisle, then go through the self-checkout line :rotfl:

The only secret I want to find out from "you women" is where the off switch is for the "nagging bitch".. :lipsrsealed: :rotfl:

My wife has been on a wild tangent this week.. Things will be back to normal next week thou...

I cleaned out the spare parts I had in the backseat (a nav unit, and a 6 disc unit), and threw all the trash out from the floor..

:undecided: That would have been helpful to know when I was working on mine. I used a razor to cut away as much of the old stuff as I could. Didn't get rid of all of it, but so far it hasn't been an issue, and the RTV silicone is holding up just fine.

Sparky, your lights are lookin pretty sweet, hope you get those done and mounted up soon! :thumbsup: Are your strips white, or amber?

Nice Trailor!

Had to have the water pump replaced on the truck I'm looking to trade in. It was a biotch that it happend but it had to be done.
 
Today, I replaced the blower resistor pack on my 2001 'Hoe. I will submit an article when I organize the pictures and write it up. :yes:
 
A lot of stuff. Then it started to run funky (complete with an occasional backfire), then I got P0014. :hissyfit:
 
Took the driveshaft to the machine shop for a little polish n trim

Tonight I changed spark plugs, cleaned throttle body, replaced some bulbs, and reinstalled rack and pinion correctly.
 
I haven't done anything yet today, however the bad vibration and backfiring stopped, then the SES light went out, taking P0014 with it. :wootwoot:
