I think that's what I'll do...but I might make it a little more interesting. I'm going to strip down the spare cover I have tomorrow.

I have the day off tomorrow, so I think I will start the new valve cover. I really wish I could find an OBD2 valve cover, they have a more sleek look. But I can't seem to find any that aren't priced super high. I'm still not positive on what parts I will be polishing.

Sweet looking ride man! Looks basicly the same as what I would want when I get one (except for the muffler, after driving a truck with a muffler older than I was I don't want to hear anything from back there). How do you go about smoking out taillights? Is it just a bit of translucent black paint? Just wondering what you use for it.

My muffler is as quiet as OEM haha. I hate loud exhausts so I got a free flowing OEM replacement style Magnaflow.

Started a full interior detail today. I am going to get new carpet sometime early summer. I think I'm just going to get black, but I'm also considering blue haha. I have always like the CTR red carpet with black mats and seats, but everyone does that. So maybe blue with black mats and black seats. Then wrap the headliner in blue plaid. Thoughts?

Also, I am in need of a driver side sideskirt. It was cracked when I got the car, and it finally gave way and fell apart. They are harder to find than I thought.
