I have a few things going on.
1. Replacing my efr 7064 turbo to a efr 7670 and get retuned.
2. Install new pole position classic abe seats with pci mounts

3. Waiting on Guardian Designs steering wheel and boot cover
4. Need to find some one to install and rewire my audio deck.
Should change the car up a bit.

Oh goodness. I didn't even think about doing this as part of a service. I don't do it fast enough & I am WAY TOO MUCH of a perfectionist. I doubt that people would pay what I would need to charge & frankly I don't know how much I would need to charge anyways.

Far as a DIY, there are a LOT of different ones already on YouTube even ones on our own S2K seats too! If someone was local I would definitely help them through it if they wanted to do it themselves. I have most of a bottle for coating. Will probably hit them one more time in a couple spots before I re-install.

Post thoughts are that a there is a SUPER FINE LINE between too thin and too thick when using an airbrush to pray things on. It goops up easily too. So better sprayer or better control over the amount of extra water added to a specific volume of product.

  4. Calipers- re-paint or possibly wrap them(need to look into that again).
  5. Re-wrap whole car. Having learned a lot from the first time, it should go better this time.
- This weekend I will be working on stripping the 2010 Robbins OEM style fabric for the upgraded CLOTH VERSION!
- Continue with the stereo re-organization/re-work.
If I can just get that done this weekend I will be happy.
Over the moon if I can also install the new wind deflector(should be amazing)

Next up after that:
Detail interior, put seats back in so I can drive it!
Injectors swap & verify valve clearance(check retainers).
Check fluids to make sure I am good for the Dragon in a month.
Detail inside and out.
Might start with trying to wrap the mirrors again & see how much color has changed over the years and how well the wrap has held up sitting in storage for 5ish years.
