The next three are the newest (6.22.08) nothing new, just shined up a little bit.

Here are two interior shots... I just re-installed the center trim and door trim (all four) after adding a couple coats of satin black and a clearcoat. I think it turned out great! It isn't too shiney, and looks just like the $350 OEM trim kit. I did it to match my Kenwood headunit.

For those who care... I've been checking my MPG after the install of the K&N Cone filter. I'm getting a solid 2 MPG over the factory Equinox. (I've got 50k on the clock, and I don't drive like a granny) So it really did help a little bit. I'm trying to locate the specs on the filter I ordered to post it for anyone interested. Hopefully I can find the paperwork soon!!

Thanks for looking!
