This page is gonna be home of several mods to eliminate some of these dam pages because if i keep going im gonna be on like 200 pages by the end of the year.

Front Plate Removal

Well started by drilling out the rivits with my handy dandy dremel, than removed the bracket.

Picked up some plate bolts with LED's at pep boys for 7$ and after sliding them in i realized i need to get behind them to bolt them in, so off came the front bumper cover "body kit"

Why the hell is the air intake running up and back? This just seems dumb. O well off it comes

OK now back to the LED bolts.

Here is what it looks like from the back of the cover.

LED Dome and Map Lights

Well ordered these lights off of ebay and they came out great, here are a couple pic of the finished product, took about 5min to install them so no pics for that.

Here is one from the back of the car showing the inside.

hey bud...nice car...just wanted to know where you ordered your pillar pod and gauges from. i'm probably about to order the cold air intake too...but i'm not too happy about having to dish out like $300. anyway...check out my car and let me know about that pillar pod!

tons of pics, which is awsome. sweet ride man, the ion does have the looks but you still gotta boost the performance a bit to take that viper! that was an amazing car. about that intake, i say wait till the price goes down a little, the time will come. check out my ion when you get a chance and tell me what you think. later

Mitch, Thanks for visiting my page. Your RL is lookin' sweet. I've seen your posts on the RLforums site. I like the airbox mod. I'm still trying to figure out the PSI- thing.
