Work in Progress!
Yeah, it's still my unfinished project,shhhh...
Still waiting on couple pieces to arrive
 
^^^ Thanks guys. Just finished installing KP Technologies Fog Light Controller. Took me couple hours. Works like a charm. Will post pictures tomorrow.
 
Pictures of my refinished wheels.

The wheels were in pretty bad condition from the previous owner-curb rashes, paint peeling, paint bubbles. I took pictures before I started, but somehow lost them, so no BEFORE pictures.
it was the first time I have ever painted wheels. I think they look good for my first time:smug:

The wheels look awesome man, great job. How long did it take to install the KP technologies fog light module and is there a way to turn them off if you wanted too?
 
^It took me couple hours to install it. You control them with factory fog light switch.
 
Nice man! The foglight module is cool. I like how you use the white backdrop for displaying some of your items. I used to do that with my old G.I.Joe collection. :top:
 
I checked KP technologies website, it doesn't list compatibility for the fx, did you have to modify it all? By the way the angel eyes looks dope
 
wow you refinished your own wheels! Awesome and nice job! You mentioned they were peeling and bubbling, do you think it was poorly refinished from the previous owner or they were oem?
 
^I think the were poorly refinished before. It was a really thin layer of paint on the wheels, stripped the paint in seconds with 200 grit.

all the work is turning out nicely, esp when you do the actual work. any plans with the springs/coils?
 
Yes, coils, getting a good deal on them. Already have 20mm spacers(not installed yet) from Chris.

Your FX is freaking awesome. Especially love the lower trim, grille, headlights, and now wheels. Very classy.
